Article name and content

I have a COI as I am the subject of the article. My birth, legal and author name is Eva Hornung. I published books early in my career under my then married name Eva Sallis. Please edit this article to reflect this. The article name should be Eva Hornung, and 'Eva Sallis' should redirect to Eva Hornung rather than the other way round.

@Wildu Hawa: I know you're trying, but as I said on your Talk page, you need to follow the procedures in the WP:COI notice I left on your Talk page. That includes, for example, making an appropriate declaration on your userpage and using a special template on this Talk page when requesting a change to the article. Unfortunately, it's complicated, particularly for new Wikipedia users like you, which is why I advised you to ask editors at the WP:Teahouse how to do it.--Bbb23 (talk) 18:27, 26 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. It is making sense, and makes WP even more impressive to see how it all works, even though fixing this is hard and frustrating because I have to find a source that implies my identity sufficiently strongly to counter a false name and identity that dominates everything about me on WP. Clearly a birth certificate will not be enough! Thank you for your time, though. You have been generous with a newby Wildu Hawa (talk) 00:35, 27 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Eva Sallis → Eva Hornung – This RM is a follow-up from the subject in question (see diff). They claimed that This page should be named Eva Hornung, not Eva Sallis, and the Eva Sallis should just link to the Eva Hornung, not the other way round reasons being that the author published under Eva Sallis until 2008. All works under that name are out of print. Major works of career postdate that (and their major awards) are under Eva Hornung (birth name). The author is not most commonly known as ES, since all reviews worldwide have been under Eva Hornung since 2008. Austlit database has Eva Hornung as primary author name citing https://www.austlit.edu.au/austlit/page/A121694?mainTabTemplate=agentAwards.
