Many authors' middle names are included in the titles of their pages. Should Genia's name be changed to Yevgenia Semyonova Ginzburg? I somewhat understand that in Russian, this is a paternal name of sorts, but it's included in her formal name, right? Dachshund2k3 (talk) 20:45, 29 May 2008 (UTC)Reply
Dachshund2k3, the problem is that the patronymic is incorrect. Her father's name was Solomon, not Semyon. If you want to add it, which I do not think is necessary, it would be Solomonovna.Mrbaker1917 (talk) 02:35, 14 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
Please note that we do not normally include patronymics in titles of the articles anyway—it is only acceptable when there is an ambiguity (in this case, we'd do it if there were another Yevgeniya Ginzburg).—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 17:04, July 9, 2009 (UTC)
The problem in updating this entry is that nothing has really been written about Ginzburg, or rather she is the one who wrote about her life.Mrbaker1917 (talk) 01:05, 12 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Several sources list Ginzburg's date of birth as 1906 rather than 1904. See for example: John Sturrock, ed. The Oxford Guide to Contemporary World Literature (OUP: 1997), p. 330 and Barbara Clements, A History of Women in Russia: From Earliest Times to the Present (Indiana UP: 2012), p. 235. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.48.248.247 (talk) 23:50, 22 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
