Edits to Mark Eden

Hi Lyddonian -- Thanks for removing nonreliable sources and replacing with The Guardian obituary, however we cannot just use the Guardian's words as they are copyrighted; it's necessary to rewrite everything in your own words. Regards, Espresso Addict (talk) 01:08, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for January 19

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Charles Campion, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Tiverton. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

ITN recognition for Peter Harding (RAF officer, born 1933)

On 26 August 2021, In the news was updated with an item that involved the article Peter Harding (RAF officer, born 1933), which you updated. If you know of another recently created or updated article suitable for inclusion in ITN, please suggest it on the candidates page. Stephen 00:21, 26 August 2021 (UTC)

Jo Johnson

Please self-revert your edit on Charlotte Johnson Wahl. Baron Johnson of Marylebone is just a title, not Jo Johnson's real name. If you continue edit-warring I'll complain you to the admins. LéKashmiriSocialiste (talk) 22:00, 14 September 2021 (UTC)

Per MOS:HONORIFIC: Except for the initial reference and infobox, do not add honorific titles to existing instances of a person's name where they are absent, because doing so implies that the existing version is incorrect (similar in spirit to the guideline on English spelling differences). Similarly, honorific titles should not be deleted when they are used throughout an article unless there is consensus. Where the use of an honorific title is widely misunderstood, this can be mentioned in the article; see, for example, Bob Geldof. Honorific titles used with forenames only (such as "Sir Elton", "Sir David", "Dame Judi") should be avoided unless this form is so heavily preferred in popular usage that the use of the surname alone would render the entire name unrecognizable. I ask you to stop adding Jo Johnson's title. LéKashmiriSocialiste (talk) 12:52, 15 September 2021 (UTC)
