Talk:Esfandiar Rahim Mashaei

spelling of name

This article has the man's name spelled three different ways throughout. We need to establish whether they are alternative spellings, typos, etc. so we can clarify, correct, and/or create redirects. --anietor (talk) 18:31, 24 July 2009 (UTC)

Following up on the name issue, when I did a yahoo and google search, both Mashaie and Mashaei appear to be common, although Mashaie is more common. However, the New York Times, LA Times and The Guardian use Mashaei almost exclusively. Of particular relevance, the "official" website, at http://www.mashaei.ir/, has it as Mashaei. If both spellings are acceptable spellings, then I would suggest picking one, have that used throughout the article, and create a redirect from the other to redirect to this article. Thoughts? --anietor (talk) 19:22, 24 July 2009 (UTC)

This seems very sensible so I implemented it.EdH (talk) 15:08, 25 July 2009 (UTC)
