Naming
editSee From WP:NCNT#Other_non-royal_names#4:
- Baronets, as they hold hereditary titles, often for a large part of their lives, follow the same practice as hereditary peers and should have their title noted in the beginning of the article. The format is Sir John Smith, 17th Baronet. For the article title, this format should only be used when disambiguation is necessary; otherwise, the article should be located at John Smith. John Smith, 17th Baronet should never be used with the postfix and without the prefix.
Therefore this articles name should be changed.--Ginggangsgoolies 20:44, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
- No it shouldn't. As shown at Dalrymple Baronets, there were six members of this family called Hew Dalrymple, so the postfix and prefix are needed for disambiguation. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 14:35, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
- The ODNB lists several articles under "Hew Dalrymple", including this one, the law lords Lord North Berwick and Lord Drummore. Choess 18:21, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
