Because this is too long to put in an edit summary
I have removed the historic Hansard source from the external links section. The article discusses the long parliamentary and ministerial career Lord Carnarvon had, but historic Hansard contradicted all of this. It listed him as making 0 contributions. Obviously this is untrue, a thorough search of Hansard will show hundreds of contributions over 36 years. Historic Hansard can be useful, but somewhat unreliable. It is not proactively maintained, errors aren't being corrected, and it doesn't always connect spoken contributions with profiles. Because there are other good sources, I think it's safe to drop one that could be considered misleading or incorrect.
I found it quite interesting in my search that Lord Carnarvon had such an immediate impact on politics, both taking his seat and following the Queen's Speech on the same day. Perhaps this could be elaborated on more, and how it came to be that Lord Aberdeen invited him into the political forefront.

The titles after the name are not shown in the preview. Because of this there are two commas in a row. I looked around at other articles and found that, for example, "Prince Edward, Duke of Kent and Strathearn" does not have this problem. So evidently it is fixable. I just don't know how. Could someone more wikipedia-savvy perhaps figure out how to fix it? Ribidag (talk) 06:51, 1 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
