The name of this article

edit

WP:COMMONNAME states "Wikipedia does not necessarily use the subject's "official" name as an article title; it generally prefers to use the name that is most frequently used to refer to the subject in English-language reliable sources. This includes usage in the sources used as references for the article." ALL of the sources quoted in the article refer to Dr Brownell as Fred, Fred Brownell is the name he commonly known by. He is not referred to as Frederick Brownell in the references. I believe it was a mistake by User:Wester to rename this article Frederick Brownell. Wayne Jayes (talk) 05:32, 16 August 2016 (UTC)Reply
