Title does not match article text edit
Why is the title of this article "Pyotr Aven", even though in the text it is always spelled "Petr"? Which is correct, and if "Petr" is correct, should the article be renamed to the correct spelling? GreyGoose (talk) 08:51, 28 May 2017 (UTC)
I also checked Google for both spellings, and overall (web, news, and books combined) "Petr Aven" is used twice as much as "Pyotr Aven". I also notice that his official bios in his companies spell his name "Petr" (http://alfabank.com/governance/board/aven/, http://www.letterone.com/about-us/leadership-and-governance/board-members/petr-aven). Does anyone know how to change the title of this Wikipedia article? GreyGoose (talk) 23:54, 31 May 2017 (UTC)
No one seems to have objected to this, so I am going to try the "Move" function to change the title. GreyGoose (talk) 04:56, 3 June 2017 (UTC)
Paid editing edit
Interesting that they appear to have tired to pay to have their article "improved" per edits by User:Earflaps. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 17:10, 28 May 2017 (UTC)
