WP has had

Lois Nielson a silent movie actress who became Stan Laurel's first wife

since 15:47, 4 September 2005, while IMDb has

Lois Neilson
Date of birth (location) 7 September 1895 Tulare, California, USA
Date of death 9 July 1990 Los Angeles, California, USA.
Sometimes Credited As: Lois Nelson

and shows them with roles together in Do You Love Your Wife? at the Internet Movie Database

For the IE spelling,
Google gives "65 of about 164 " for

"Lois Nielson" -wikipedia

and 31 of about 55

"Lois Nielson" -wikipedia actress OR Laurel

For the EI spelling,
" 91 of about 290" for

"Lois Neilson" -wikipedia

and 44 of about 92

"Lois Neilson" -wikipedia actress OR Laurel

Which is to say that even tho IE is the more common spelling (for people named Lois), EI wins out when the facts of her history are used to restrict the search.
