[edit] Requested move

The Lady Gabriella Windsor → Lady Gabriella Windsor – "Lady", in this case, is a coutesy title, and thus, is not preceded with the definite article.

[edit] Discussion

Add any additional comments

• If this is approved, we are also going to have to move her brother, and various cousins. If we just move her, it will look strange. Prsgoddess187 01:51, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

Lord Frederick Windsor, her brother, does not have the definite article. If I'm not mistaken (and if I am please correct me), great-grandchildren of the Sovereign are styled as children of a duke, which means "Lord" and "Lady" and not "The Lord" and "The Lady" which is reserved for substantive titles.

I just wanted to make sure that if we changed her title, we would change any others that occur like hers. I am not sure if her cousins, and others are styled The Lord/Lady. Prsgoddess187 12:58, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, I think if we move this, then it would be in order to move other similar pages too. JSIN 13:06, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

Moved. —Nightstallion (?) 08:08, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] What Wikipedia is not

Wikipedia is not a free host, blog, webspace provider or social networking site

You may not host your own website, blog, or wiki at Wikipedia. Wikipedia pages are not:

• User pages. Wikipedians have their own user pages, but they may be used only to present information relevant to working on the encyclopedia. If you are looking to make a personal webpage or blog, please make use of one of the many free providers on the Internet. The focus of user pages should not be social networking, but rather providing a foundation for effective collaboration.

• News reports. Wikipedia should not offer first-hand news reports on breaking stories (however, our sister project Wikinews does exactly that). Wikipedia does have many encyclopedia articles on topics of historical significance that are currently in the news, and can be significantly more up-to-date than most reference sources since we can incorporate new developments and facts as they are made known.
