I see no rationale for spelling her name with a -tzeva rather than a -tseva. The Russian ц is rendered as "ts" in English, and that's how it usually appears in English language texts. There are more than twice as many google hits for Spessivtseva than Spessivtzeva. I appreciate that her name was sometimes spelled with the z, but the standard way is with the s, and that's what most people would look for in a search.
I recommend we move it back to Olga Spessivtseva and adjust all the "z" spellings in the article. -- JackofOz ( talk) 00:29, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

Olga Spessivtseva — The Russian ц is rendered as "ts" in English, and that's how it usually appears in English language texts. There are more than twice as many google hits for Spessivtseva than Spessivtzeva. Most people would look for Spessivtseva in a search, rather than Spessivtzeva. I would regard this as an uncontroversial move, but the fact that it's already been moved from Spessivtseva to Spessivtzeva means that it's potentially controversial.

Since there was a consensus - I have moved the page - and there are proper redirects from alternate transliterations. - AKeen ( talk) 13:56, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
