[edit] naming of this article

Is there another "George Dick-Lauder, 12th Baronet" - if not then this page should be called "George Dick-Lauder, 12th Baronet" and not "Sir George Dick-Lauder, 12th Baronet " - regards --Vintagekits 14:34, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Rubbish, as you well know - [1] - Kittybrewster 15:01, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
Please remember WP:CIVIL, I would prefer if you did not label my good faith edits as rubbish.--Vintagekits 15:19, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
Are there two "George Andrew Dick-Lauder"'s then?--Vintagekits 15:20, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
MOS says Sir {first name unless he is better known by his second) (Surname), 12th Baronet. As you were told under Sir Henry Chamberlain, 1st Baronet. - Kittybrewster 15:30, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
Actually the MOS isnt clear on that and Tyrenius actually disagreed with your assessment - can can the middle name be used to distingush between two memebers of the same family with similar names?--Vintagekits 15:35, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Even if there were two George Dick-Lauder's both use the prefix "Sir" if both were baronets. I don't understand the point of this discussion. This artcile follows Wikipedia guidelines.--Counter-revolutionary 15:36, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Please folks, centralise this discussion rather than splatting it over a dozen article talk pages. I suggest Category talk:Baronets. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 15:51, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
There is no other "George Dick-Lauder" so this article should not be called Sir George Dick-Lauder, 12th Baronet
Are you allowed to edit this article VK...?--Counter-revolutionary 19:47, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
Oh yeah! would you prefer I didnt?--Vintagekits 19:51, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
Yes, you should still be blocked indefinitely. --Counter-revolutionary 19:53, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
Thank you for your opinion. If you would like to discuss this issue rationally then please do so. I wont rise to insults.--Vintagekits 19:56, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

Looks like you would rather taunt me than actually discuss it. It turns out that there is another Sir George Dick-Lauder, 10th Baronet so I am happy for this to stay.--Vintagekits 20:10, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Army career

As Sir George's first son and heir was born in Cyprus and his second in Berlin (according to Debretts) during his time in the Army the presumption might be that he was transferred to those places given that he was then still in service? David Lauder 20:04, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

I dont fully understand the question.--Vintagekits 20:07, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
Sorry. You tagged something in the article. David Lauder 20:09, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
Yes, are you just looking for a source for it?--Vintagekits 20:11, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
I could. I can't remember where I put that volume. I'll try and find it. David Lauder 20:12, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
