"Stone did an outstanding job of making the Chicago department eminent again".. Can we replace "eminent" by "great" here? Would make it sound more presidential. Aritrop (talk) 18:37, 6 March 2017 (UTC)— Preceding unsigned comment added by Aritrop (talkcontribs) 18:23, 6 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest that we move this article from Marshall Harvey Stone to Marshall H. Stone or perhaps even Marshall Stone, per WP:COMMONNAME. I don't think "Marshall Harvey Stone" is how this mathematician is commonly known. – Tea2min (talk) 18:13, 18 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

M. H. Stone is his typical author name on papers. Marshall H. Stone appears on his National Medal of Science and his Josiah Willard Gibbs Lecture, neither of which have their recipients follow a strict name pattern. IMU Presidency name alternates between M. H. Stone and Marshall H. Stone. Marshall Harvey Stone appears on his AMS Presidency, though all the earlier half AMS presidents have no initialization. Marshall H. Stone seems to obey WP:MIDDLE the best. Deep Gabriel (talk) 21:59, 19 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
