Her name

[edit]

Mackenzie's name is "Oceana", however the IFSC keep using 'Oceania' which is actually the name of the region she comes from / represents. They've been told repeatedly, aiui, by her and others, but it seems to have stuck in their listings. --AlisonW (talk) 15:29, 16 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I agree - her name is "Oceana" (per her own website and quality RS like The Guardian). Aszx5000 (talk) 16:02, 16 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Her real name is Oceania but she prefers Oceana. Source - her IG 162.145.253.33 (talk) 03:16, 20 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Please quote a verifiable independent source then if so. --AlisonW (talk) 21:50, 20 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This finally clears it up. In light of this I'd suggest moving the page back to Oceania Mackenzie, since this is the name under which she competes at relevant competitions. MaligneRange (talk) 06:12, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Per Wikipedia:COMMONNAME we would probably stick with the name she uses for herself, which seems to be Oceana? Aszx5000 (talk) 12:23, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
