Wendy Smith-SlyWendy Sly – It's the name used in practically every reliable source, including her personal Twitter [1], her Linkedin [2], her MBE citation [3], Olympics profile [4]. It is also the name she is best known as (WP:COMMONNAME), because it is the name she was commonly known by when she was an active runner, e.g. this New York Times article after her silver medal at the 1984 Olympics [5]. So by any measure, I think "Wendy Sly" is the better title. Adpete (talk) 03:24, 14 August 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. – robertsky (talk) 04:14, 21 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
