Dorothy J. Thompson

Howdy. Just a quick query to ask why you removed the post-noms in the lead of the new article for Dorothy J. Thompson (here). Is there some arcane Wiki style guide convention I've missed here? Both are referenced in the publications and would be used in conjunction with FBA. Thought I'd ask before I touched it again. Thanks for your other updates there, much obliged. Zakhx150 (talk) 16:30, 7 June 2018 (UTC)

Hi, Zakhx150! There is indeed a convention: MOS:POSTNOM. "Post-nominal letters, other than those denoting academic degrees, should be included in the lead section". Basically, academic degrees and their associated post-noms are mentioned in the main body of the article, eg "she graduated with a Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree [ref]", but not in the introduction or infobox. Hope this helps and thanks for asking, Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk 19:02, 7 June 2018 (UTC)
@Gaia Octavia Agrippa: - Thanks for pointing that one out - previously overlooked on my part. Much obliged! Zakhx150 (talk) 09:34, 14 June 2018 (UTC)

Post-nom

I'm hoping you'll review my response to your !vote and revise what you wrote there. It's inspiring others to add similar off-topic comments. You've mistaken this as a proposal about whether honors that provide post-nominal letters can be mentioned in the article, when it is only about whether post-nominal acronyms should appear after someone's name in the lead section in large numbers. It is not even possible for MoS to have a rule against mentioning and citing relevant facts in the article; it is not a content guideline. Frankly, your lenghty post of fear, uncertainty, and doubt there is trainwrecking an RfC on a very simple question.  — SMcCandlish ¢ 😼  20:43, 29 June 2018 (UTC)
