[edit] Name

Although there seems to be confusion on how her name is spelt I think the article should be at Lena Pedersen. It's all original reasearch but the vehicle used by the boarding home in Yellowknife uses the "e" spelling. Everybody I talked to agrees that she was the wife of Red Pedersen and a look in the phone book confirms the "e" spelling for Red and sons. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 18:18, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

I support moving this article to Lena Pedersen for an additional reason: the book's author is Pedersen not Pederson. While a living person can't control how her name is spelled in articles, etc., surely she has final approval of how her name is spelled on a book she authors.

Btw, Cambridge, are you going to mention marriage on Lena's and Red Pedersen's aricle pages? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rosiestephenson (talk • contribs) 18:07, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

Probably not as there's no references that say they were married. Unless it's in the book. By the way, what's the title of the book? CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 19:33, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

You're right, mentioning a marriage should have a corresponding citation. Lena's book is entitled Crime Prevention in Kugluktuk; I attributed it to her on her page under Partial Bibliography. Rosiestephenson 20:03, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

Oh, brain dead moment! For some reason I thought you ment another book. I just checked the index to Bishop Sperry's book and found no reference to them at all. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 20:08, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
