::Sorry, I missed your critiques. When the article is "Bill Weld", the MOS:LEGALNAME guideline says his name should be his legal name (William Weld) *without* the hypocorism. If the article were William Weld, there might be a reason for adding "Bill", but in this case it's just adding redundant information that gets in the way. So what's your gripe with the guideline in this case? [[User:Tarl_N.|<font color="green">'''Tarl N.'''</font>]] ([[User talk:Tarl N.#top|<font color="teal">discuss</font>]]) 02:55, 19 May 2017 (UTC)
:::E.g., by the way, [[Bill Clinton]]. I've seen edit wars adding and removing it. It seems to currently have stabilized without it.[[User:Tarl_N.|<font color="green">'''Tarl N.'''</font>]] ([[User talk:Tarl N.#top|<font color="teal">discuss</font>]]) 02:57, 19 May 2017 (UTC)

[[User:MelanieN]] submitted the following nomination for [[WP:Editor of the Week|Editor of the Week]]:
:Therequiembellishere has been editing Wikipedia for more than 10 years and has more than 90,000 edits, almost all of them to article space. He has created 80 articles, but his best contributions recently are quiet ones: tweaks to improve articles, repetitive cleanup jobs, etc. He specializes in the kind of almost-invisible work that keeps Wikipedia readable, and I think he should be recognized for this important service.
