Linking to Thibault gives the Daggerfall beggar Thibault[edit]

I am not sure if this should be discussed here, were the link makes trouble, or on the Lore version page where the link is placed, but opted for the first.

Linking of the misspelling of Thibaut in the text means linking to a Daggerfall beggar named Thibault here, but I can see the point of having a lore link in lore for a possible future lore page. Should the lore link go to Thibaut rather than Thibault (and Thibault also get a sic tag) as Thibaut is probably the correct? —MortenOSlash (talk) 19:06, 30 April 2017 (UTC)

Changing it to Thibaut would cause a problem, as he is a Nord living in Riften. There are another two, Thibault Stogrin (a commoner from Daggerfall), and Thibaut Vynier (a laborer from Firebrand Keep), but they are not this guy. It probably should be Thibaut but a lot of real place names are bastardized from their origins by folk who didn't know better and this could be replicating that as the L is used seven times, compared to the use without solely in mention of the Cairn (including it's mention in Captain Fanimanwe's Journal).
