Start by calling people by the name they're best
known by, and
optionally add others. So Mother Theresa gets listed as that
("Saint Theresa" needs to be a disambiguation anyway), and
the article should note her birth name as well as the fact
that she was [beatified] by the Roman Catholic church in 2003
(other churches also have saints, but not the same list-- so
we need to be specific). Ringo Starr isn't a redirect to
Richard Starkey, and Gerald Ford is listed as that, not
primarily as "President Ford" or by his birth name.
Looks like a common sense approach like Vicki (a professional
Proofreader) suggests, is better than creating more rules.
