Dorié should be Dorie

[edit]

The page currently uses the spelling Dorié, which I cannot find outside of Wikipedia. All Korean sources I've found list his name as 도리, suggesting the original spelling Dorie, not Dorié. All French sources I've consulted also have Dorie. Furthermore, French Wikipedia, which has by far the longest article on him, uses the spelling Dorie, not only for the man himself but also for derived names like La Maison Saint-Henri-Dorie. The change in spelling makes a big difference in the presumed French pronunciation, which is why we have Дорье as the spelling used in the Russian Wikipedia, presumably based on the English Wikipedia; if the correct spelling is Dorie, as I strongly suspect, the Russian spelling should be Дори instead. I will take the liberty to change the spelling of the names in the article and request a move. --Iceager (talk) 12:44, 1 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I also request a move : I'm French, from Henri Dorie's birth département, and I confirm that the correct spelling is 'Dorie' and not 'Dorié' : That's why I changed the spelling of the name in the article. I also confirm that it makes a big difference in the French pronunciation. I would have moved it by myself, but I can't find any 'Move' link on the pageJan3sobieski (talk) 14:12, 12 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
