Rename article

Just wondering if this should be "Lindsay Sandiford case" rather than "Lindsay Sandiford" as there are others involved in the case and it's not really a biography. Any thoughts? Paul MacDermott (talk) 19:03, 27 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps that is for the best. As she is notable for this case and really not for anything else. However the article should stay as it is and not be rewritten, I find the article to be focusing on the Lindsay Sandiford case and not Lindsay Sandifords life as it is already. Good work.--BabbaQ (talk) 12:38, 3 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

On first thought I agree with renaming, but on second thought, I think it's best to leave it as it is. Lee Harvey Oswald for example is there as an entry with some minimal biographical detail - sufficient to give context, just as there is with Sandiford - but the rest of the piece focuses on what he is known for. I say leave it the way it is.Cross Reference (talk) 13:56, 18 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have also changed my mind. Leave it as it is.BabbaQ (talk) 14:16, 18 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
