I agree with keeping it at [[Elizabeth Smart (kidnap victim)]], if that
means anything.

Using a person's middle name or initial is a natural way to disambiguate
and
therefore acceptable ([[George W. Bush]]/[[George H.
W. Bush]]).
[[Elizabeth
Smart (kidnap victim)]] would be my second choice. The
'media sensation'
one
has got to go, though.
I see the article is at [[Elizabeth Smart (kidnap victim)]] right now, so
I'm
happy with that.
