Requested move
Astrid Strauß → Astrid Strauss
I think this page should be moved to Astrid Strauss. The only listed rationale for having it at Astrid Strauß is because of one English language usage
However, a survey of English language sources indicates an overwhelming preference for the standard transliteration Strauss rather than Strauß. Notables include:
- New York Times
- USA Today
- Washington Post
- Swimnews.com
- Gbrathletics.com
- Sports Illustrated
- Daily Telegraph
- BBC
I think the evidence is overwhelming that this person's correct name in English is Strauss Erudy 14:52, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
