I'm not sure I did the right thing with this move/redirect, but the current name for the article appears to be his "complete" name according to some sources (e.g. http://www.pegasusarchive.org/arnhem/alexander_lipmann_kessel.htm , which cites the language used in awarding him his MBE) -- while the world of academic press publishing seems to think it's "Lipmann Kessel" as in the pre-redirected article. My suspicion, completely unsupported by any evidence, is that the "long" name is correct, but that he abandoned "Alexander" in the aftermath of World War II. If somebody finds evidence that the "short" name is correct, I won't be offended at having the redirect reversed. -- Bill-on-the-Hill (talk) 22:42, 26 May 2010 (UTC)Reply
