Speaking as the person who started the original draft of your article on Wikipedia back in 2004, I can assure you of two things:
(1) While I've read some of your work, I'm not in any sense the kind of crazed obsessive stalking fan you need to worry about at all; I'm generally a reader of conventional literary fiction and political non-fic much more than speculative fiction.
(2) The article was originally created at the title "Michelle Sagara West" because the sources that were available about you at the time were giving that as your name -- I know this from having done the web research to write the initial version of the article in the first place. So while it may not have been brought to your attention before, any confusion about your name already existed before you had a Wikipedia article to confuse matters.
Just a couple of delayed pennies for the pot, anyway.
