` ::: Your idea that other encyclopedias ``cut her some slack`` is a risible reflection of your view of the world and little else. I'm confident that if Graeme Wood (journalist) chose to publish an autobiography under the name Graeme C.A. Wood and if he met other encyclopedia's criteria for inclusion then other encyclopedias would use his initials in his name to achieve encyclopedic register for their article title. Because Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion are lower than other encyclopedias (which is a good thing), we require that the name be commonly used in addition to being in an encyclopedic register. Encyclopedic register is a scholarly register that does not fall along the informal/formal spectrum for human names, and autobiographies carry huge weight in determining encyclopedic register due to their uniquely self-citing author/subject identity in library science. So, if Graeme Wood published an autobiography under the name Graeme C.A. Wood but that name did not achieve much common use (according to the tools we like to use), the requirement for encyclopedic register and common usage would conflict with each other, and we would most likely still stick with Graeme Wood as our title under current policy. If the man published an autobiography with his initials and if his name with his initials was also in common use, then we would (or at least should) use his encyclopedic autobiography-name as our article title even if the tools we like showed the result that this was the less commonly used name while still being a commonly used name. I appreciate your admission that you're not entirely sure what is meant by encyclopedic register, and I believe you. I hope you can find it within yourself to cut some slack to editors at Wikipedia who do understand it. Wikipedia's title name policy is overly simple in the sense that it lumps many requirements and ideas into the concept of encyclopedic register and trusts that editors will understand what that is and what it requires. If you want to prevent Wikipedia from being an encyclopedia, removing that phrase from that policy should be part of your plan. Removing ideas that you don't understand may be easier for you than trying to understand them. Instead of taking that course, I hope you have another look at the section below, reread my comments above about Mr. Wood's article's title, and keep trying to understand how all parts of the policy WP:COMMONNAME can be met by a Hillary Rodham Clinton article.   `
