Name of the page
[edit]The name should be changed to Matyáš Lerch instead of Mathias Lerch. In all other languages with latin letters the name is Matyáš Lerch. K9re11 (talk) 11:24, 7 May 2014 (UTC)
- Maybe, but we would need sources for that. The references we currently have both call him Mathias. —David Eppstein (talk) 15:28, 7 May 2014 (UTC)
- There are many references in the German and Czech articles where he is called Matyáš Lerch. K9re11 (talk) 03:34, 1 January 2015 (UTC)
- Google books finds a larger number of sources that call him Mathias than ones that call him Matyas, and also many more older (e.g. 19th century) sources. Unfortunately it's not possible to go by what he used as his own name in his mathematical publications, because that seems to have generally been "M. Lerch". —David Eppstein (talk) 04:22, 1 January 2015 (UTC)
