  • Support The use of "Pierre Page" is verified by the sources used within the article, and "Pierre Pagé" is not supported by the sources used as references for the article. Dolovis (talk) 03:44, 31 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
  • Comment The Globe and Mail and Toronto Star seem to also spell it as "Pierre Page". However Sports Illustrated [1][2] uses the accent. As does this French language Nordiques fansite [3], and this French language Quebec newspaper [4]. The New York Times uses an accent also [5].
So, it's definitely used in French, and sometimes used in English.

  • Support. Clearly the most common name in reliable English sources. A google news archive search shows 1170 hits for "Pierre Pagé", compared to a much greater 6250 hits for "Pierre Page". Jenks24 (talk) 09:00, 1 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose Sports Illustrated and the New York Times uses the accent as do a number of others in english as well as french. In cases like this it is clearly spelled out that we should go with the diacritics. -DJSasso (talk) 12:09, 2 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
  • Support, per nom. GoodDay (talk) 11:21, 4 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose reliable sources use the accent. When the usage is split, I see no reason to make a change for change's sake. Canada Hky (talk) 20:08, 5 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
    • Usage is not really "split". Five out of every six sources do not use the diacritic. I would agree with your point if the usage was 50/50, but that is the case in this discussion. Jenks24 (talk) 10:45, 6 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
      • 50/50 would be evenly split, anything less than complete agreement is "split". Two high quality sources like SI and the NYT are more than enough to keep the status quo. Canada Hky (talk) 00:50, 7 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
