Why is the page titled "George Lestrade" when the only thing the canon reveals about Lestrade's first name is that it begins with G? --Loopus 22:43, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
Image:Infpectordumbafs.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

The article before my last change had contained the sentence
That threw me on first reading: if Conan Doyle "originally" pronounced it correctly as "less-TRAHD", was the article implying that Doyle's preferred pronunciation had changed over time (perhaps to "less-TRADE")? But I concluded after a while that the article was just trying to say that the Saint Lucian had pronounced his own name that way (and since Doyle's Inspector Lestrade was a character in a printed work, maybe we don't even know how Doyle pronounced the Inspector's name). Still, it's far less confusing to put the "right" pronunciation first in the article, and let the unverified Saint Lucian fend for himself. --Quuxplusone (talk) 22:10, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
AMENDMENT: This section claims that the French pronunciation of Lestrade rhymes with "odd" which is invalid for most English speakers, including many Americans. I shall delete the word "odd" and substitute the universally recognised phonetic symbols. Melba1 (talk) 22:40, 4 November 2020 (UTC)
