Elfreide RinderElfriede Rinder – I bungled trying to undo a page move, making a typo in the name "Elfreide" instead of the correct "Elfriede". The page was recently moved to "Frieda" citing the German wiki, but that page is actually de:Friedl Rinder. I'm not sure where Frieda came from, as our English-language sources say either Elfriede (Friedl) or simply Friedl. Friedl Rinder would also be OK as page name, as the sources are pretty evenly split – Friedl: Sunnucks and de:wikipedia; Elfreide: Gaige, Olimpbase, and chessgames.com.

  • Move to Friedl Rinder, Quale you were right to try and restore, and could have requested a technical move. Although now you've raised it "Rinder, Elfriede" only gets one result in a 2010 directory, see GBooks for WP:COMMONNAME. de.wp is correct, she was known by the diminutive Friedl, even in English.

"Frieda" was her real name, "Friedl" was her nickname, "Elfriede" was wrong.Chvsanchez (talk) 18:43, 21 October 2013 (UTC)Reply
