GH official website lists as Bergmen, but everywhere else it's Bergman. So, I changed all the associated pages to say Kristen Bergmen (changed pages of Alexis and her children, Mikkos and Helena) Charleenmerced 17:23, 5 February 2007 (UTC)Charleenmerced

GH's official website (which is maintained by techs and not the writers) actually uses both Bergman and Bergmen. The show, when it refered to her, used Bergman with an A. (And her real name was Nilsson, with two Ss.) The website has numerous inaccuracies -- the character name for Michael Corinthos III changes repeatedly, and many times it's not accurate. The website is a great source for secondary information, but not primary information because it's not maintained by the show itself but by technicians hired to handle the website.

But, where else would be get official info?--Charleenmerced ^Talk 16:24, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

I'll just remove the re-direct and the section note with the name thing.--Charleenmerced ^Talk 16:40, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

The show itself would always be the primary source. That's the downside about the official websites, because they're not maintained by the writers but rather by techies, who are simply told what to enter. Oftentimes, changes in leadership can result in confusions. Take the AMC character of Lily Montgomery for example -- until she was aged to a teen, her name was Lilly, not Lily. ;) D'Amico 02:59, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
