Middle Initial and the recent page move[edit]

LDS leaders are generally referred to by their first name, middle initial, and last name. But Church leaders who are women normally use the first letter of their maiden name instead of their middle initial. It seems that Bonnie Lee Green Oscarson is not doing this, opting to use L. for Lee (her middle name) rather than G. for Green (her maiden name). After she was called as Young Women General President it was believed by several editors she would go by Bonnie G. Oscarson, but it seems not so in this case, so I moved the page. See these two official LDS pages:
