[edit] Page name: Irena Sendlerowa vs. Irena Sendler

Why is this article listed under "Irena Sendlerowa", and not under "Irena Sendler" as e.g. at Yad Vashem? On which sources is this based?--Matthead 22:17, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move

[edit] Discussion

Add any additional comments

Independent sources (see external links) list her as "Irena Sendler". I can understand that Poles call her Irena Sendlerowa, but why does English Wikipedia, too? --Matthead 12:24, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

No support at all for the present title? --Matthead 17:18, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Result:moved

Ok, clear, moving is in order. -- Kim van der Linde at venus 22:51, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
