WikiProject Anthroponymy Standards
Title
If another article exists with the same title and the name article is not the primary article, the title should be qualified with:
- "(surname)", if the article only covers a surname.
- "(given name)", if the article only covers a given name.
- "(name)", if the article covers both, or is ambiguous.
Use the demonym if it needs to be disambiguated further. Example: Chu (Chinese surname) and Chu (Vietnamese surname).
Hatnotes
Hatnotes provide links to other similarly named articles. They help users to navigate between articles such as the disambiguation page Spencer, the surname article Spencer (surname), and the given name article Spencer (given name).
Entries
Entries included in an anthroponymy article should be limited to notable persons who have a surname that matches the surname article's title, or persons who have a given name that matches the given name article's title. An anthroponymy article may include both surnames and given names, but those entries should be listed in separate sections within the article. Partial matches should not be added to the list of entries, but may be included in the See also section.
Alternate spellings of the same name may be included if they have the same origin as the primary spelling. Preferred format:
Fittkau, or Fitkau, is a surname. Notable people with the surname include:
Misspellings should be listed only if there is a genuine risk of confusion, but should be placed in See also.
