:That's the problem, though. As a redirect, that's a great idea. As the main page, it's problematic, especially when you get into maiden names and such. Casual users will look for [[Marge Simpson]], not Marjorie Bouvier Simpson, and for that matter writers, voice actors, critics etc. use Marge Simpson or Marge; the change creates double redirects which need to be fixed and in general can be disorienting. Either way, while I know this isn't the most active community at present, it's a major alteration which should really be discussed. -- [[User:Aleal|<font color="Blue">Andrew Leal</font>]] ([[User talk:Aleal|<font color="Blue" size="1">talk</font>]]) 21:10, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
