The subject uses a great variety of names. Her earliest papers seem to be published as "Valerie J. Purdie". Then she publishes as "Valerie Purdie-Vaughns". Most recently she is "Valerie Purdie Greenaway" or sometimes "Valerie Purdie-Greenaway".

It looks likely that she's hyphenated her birthname upon marriage(s), so I've listed birthname as Valerie J. Purdie and othername as Valerie Purdie-Vaughns. It'd be nice to have a reliable source for what to call her.

Comment that her notable work was published as Purdie-Vaughns, and I think the article should be moved to be under that name. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 13:19, 7 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

She married Joseph Greenaway on Mar 25, 2019.^[1] I'm not sure whether this should be included in the article with only theknot as a source. I created a redirect from Valerie Purdie-Vaughns.Russ Woodroofe (talk) 16:59, 10 December 2019 (UTC)Reply
