Lead and what is notable

The lead is for highlighting the aspects which makes the subject notable. Apart from shorten is married to bill why the revert of me removing the other random details? I think we need to just say what she does and her marriage to bill. Apart from that every other detail in the article seems pretty equal in notability to me.Brownlife (talk) 20:54, 22 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

she's not a former journalist

Shorten is a former newspaper and magazine journalist? she's not a journalist. No she wasn't. Sources please?Brownlife (talk) 20:57, 22 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The current source being used is behind a paywall so it can't be checked. Any other sources? If unsourced should be promptly removed.Brownlife (talk) 21:04, 22 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Name

While multiple sources have reported that her birth name was Clothilde Bryce, does that mean that her current legal name is Clothilde Shorten? It's also unclear if she has one middle name or two. "Clothilde Edwina Louise Bryce" returns several g-hits, but her ABN lists "Clothilde Shorten", "Clothilde Bryce", "Chloe Bryce Parkin", and "Clothilde Edwina Bryce".

It is only possible to change a family name through marriage. Given names must be varied through a legal name change. So since she was legally "Clothilde" before marriage, she remains that after marriage. "Chloe" is a hypocorism. "Louise" is supported by reliable sources so I am adding it to the article.
