[edit] Survey
- Add *Support or *Oppose followed by an optional one-sentence explanation, then sign your opinion with ~~~~
- Support as in intro. Mtiedemann 18:44, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
- Oppose. That is is title, perhaps it might be more appropiate to name him President of the MCB?-LGreen
- Comment. From Wikipedia:Naming conventions (people) - "Several general and specific guidelines further specify that article names preferably... don't add qualifiers (such as "King", "Saint", "Dr.", "(person)", "(ship)"), except when this is the simplest and most NPOV way to deal with disambiguation". In addition, Wikipedia:Manual of Style (biographies) states that Dr should not be used in the opening sentence but should be discussed if relevant later in the article.

In light of the cited Wiki conventions (which I must hold my hand up and say I hadn't read so closely) I would like to do a whopping great u-turn! I now support the move to edit the name and place my Support for it.-LGreen
