There is indeed a contradiction. The AA developers have directly claimed it to be Neo Politan, not Neopolitan "Neo" Politan. (Later statements have made it clear that if her last name is Politan, then her first name is Neo.) Getting back to my initial contesting of the move, AA first used the name "Neo Politan" on November 22, and the article discussion at that time was heavily in favor of it being an error. When asked, the AA developers directly claimed her last name was Politan, and yet the page wasn't moved.

The only difference behind the November 22 incident and the June 7 incident was that AA provided an (unverifiable) source, making this a Word of Dante situation. (TV Tropes usage note: It's Word of Dante instead of Word of Saint Paul because the AA developers are not involved with RWBY proper.)

I still maintain their source to have been inaccurate, because of the occasional use of Neo Politan in the fandom prior to Chibi establishing her name onscreen.
