Tibor Visnovsky → Tibor Višňovský – Rename to include diacritics, to reflect the standard practice across most biographies. The name is used by the subject of this article. The name is used by most non-English sources, therefore Wikipedia:DIACRITIC#No established usage should apply here. Also please note, that the vast majority of articles in the "Slovak ice hockey players" category have diacritics in article titles.
Examples of the name use:
- Profile at the official website of HK 36 Skalica
- Profile at HokejPortal.sk
- Article at Pluska portal
- Article in Pravda newspaper
- Article at Hokej.sk portal

- Support the subject appears to be a Slovak notable for actions in Slovakia. — AjaxSmack 04:51, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
- Support The Diacritical policy of Wikipedia would seem to allow for the more proper transition into a correct article name. All I would say is perhaps leave or later recreate this page itself as a redirect to the proper page with diacritics like so many other biographical articles where the person is named properly though people searching for them may not have diacritical-friendly keyboards.

- Support move, we shouldn't be renaming people just because writers of English sources don't have diacritics on their keyboards. Obviously the title without diacritics should redirect to the one with diacritics. - filelakeshoe 11:37, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
- Support, standard Wikipedia practice, omitting the diacritics serves no purpose.--Kotniski (talk) 12:35, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
