The title of the article may have to be renamed to "IEEE/Royal Society Maxwell Medal" to better reflect the actual award. It is a medal award, just like other IEEE Medals. Also, we need to give credit to Royal Society of Edinburgh for jointly hosting and sponsoring this award with IEEE. Wiki senior editors who have the right to amend please consider. Thanks.

IEEE Maxwell Award → ? – Requesting page name change. Current name is IEEE Maxwell Award. But accurately, it should be IEEE/RSE Maxwell Medal. The medal is jointly awarded by IEEE and Royal Society of Edinburgh. Also, it is a medal, not merely an award. An award can be a certificate or prize money. But a medal usually refers to a minted coin engraved after some famous person or some professional society. Hence, requesting for the name change to accurately reflect the content and topic. Thanks.

Move to IEEE/RSE James Clerk Maxwell Medal: That's what the IEEE calls it, and Wikipedia seems to usually use the full name (and the word "Medal") for IEEE medals. Reviewing the list of IEEE medals, I see that Wikipedia also has IEEE Richard W. Hamming Medal, IEEE Alexander Graham Bell Medal, IEEE Jack S. Kilby Signal Processing Medal, IEEE James H. Mulligan Jr. Education Medal, IEEE Jun-ichi Nishizawa Medal, IEEE Robert N. Noyce Medal, IEEE Dennis J. Picard Medal for Radar Technologies and Applications, etc. Megalibgwilia (talk) 15:43, 15 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

OK agree. Make sense. Fellow007 (talk) 18:39, 15 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
