Talk:Margaret Howard, Duchess of Norfolk
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Family name
Nearly all nonwiki sites and printed resources concerning this lady use her family or maiden name. For posterity and identity I believe Wiki should conform to the same. I have seen many other Wiki examples of using the married name and I realize that it was indeed contmporary etiquette and understand the argument that Wiki is not intended as a genealogical database but many peers are notable solely on who they were, who they came from, and who, if any, they brought into the world. Articles such as this one Margaret Audley, Duchess of Norfolk are constantly redirected or moved to one where the married name is used. Again, in most cases, I believe it would be prudent for Wiki to use the family or maiden name. Daytrivia (talk) 03:53, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
