Page name[edit]

Just wondering...should this page be under Lisbeth Lenton with a redirect from Libby? --IanRitchie 09:44, 24 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think so too. // SMARTSKAFT | ¿ 18:07, 26 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move[edit]

The following discussion is an archived discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the proposal was NO CONSENSUS to move page, per discussion below. According to my own googling, they're both used a fair amount, but when I restricted the search to webpages in English, "Libby" is quite a lot more common than "Lisbeth". -GTBacchus^(talk) 01:57, 1 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Libby Lenton → Lisbeth Lenton — Given name, used by all external links from the page (FINA, Swimming Australia) as well as the FINA world records list SMARTSKAFT | ¿ 18:22, 26 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Survey - in support of the move[edit]

Survey - in opposition to the move[edit]

Oppose, yes whilst she born Lisbeth, she prefers the name and is known right across Australia as Libby, not unlike another one of Australia's great swimmers, Susan "Susie" O'Neill -- Ianblair23 (talk) 21:40, 26 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose, a Google seach under Libby Lenton: 102,000 - under Lisbeth Lenton: 45,200. I think that speaks for itself :) -- DeafCom 11:42, 27 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Melbourne 2007 FINA Championships[edit]

Medal updates - thanks Shaizakopf - u beat me :) - Help with Libby and all the swimming updates would be most welcome... DeafCom 11:43, 27 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Neutrality/Review flag on "Career"[edit]

The "Career" section is very pro-Libby in writing (e.g. "regained her World Record"), and also appears to start mid-stream. This section also seems to be more stylized writing than is typical on Wikipedia... Hooperswim (talk) 04:55, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Image[edit]

The image of Libby should be replaced if possible. The strange face contortion isn't flattering. I've had no experience with uploading images so I'll leave it to others. Acoma Magic (talk) 00:00, 2 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

While it isn't the best photograph, it is an older photograph then the one I added into the infobox. Bidgee (talk) 02:55, 21 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

What's wrong with it? Both images look perfectly fine to me. Courcelles 17:18, 26 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
