thread_title:  Article location 

message: I had moved the geneological chart, added by another author some time ago, to a separate sub-article because of the length of the main article. I have no strong feeelings of principle about its location. IXIA (talk) 13:50, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The problem is that separating the ancestry chart won't do much to solve the problem of article length. That would be like putting a Band-Aid on an open wound. Hence, merging it back seems to be the sensible solution. --Blanchardb-MeMyEarsMyMouth-timed 15:41, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Edens fly to Jamaica 1956.JPG

message: The subject of this article is referred to throughout as "Lady Avon". This is contrary to Wikipedia's Manual of Style, which requires the use of the name or title applicable at the time referred to. See WP:SURNAME: "Be careful not to give someone a title too soon; for example, one should use 'Robert Dudley' or 'Dudley' when describing events before [the Earl of Leicester's] elevation to the peerage in 1564." – Tim riley (talk) 10:58, 2 May 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Name/title 

message: The article says her memoir was published in 2007. However, the off-Wikipedia sources that I have been able to locate say it was published in 2008. Please see the publisher's page and Amazon's. —BarrelProof (talk) 15:22, 2 May 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: WorldCat, always reliable in my experience, confirms 2007: see here. Amazon UK agrees: here. BarrelProof is looking at later editions, I think. Tim riley (talk) 15:56, 2 May 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, I guess that was the problem. Thanks for checking. —BarrelProof (talk) 16:02, 2 May 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Memoir publication date 

message: I don't know why, all of a sudden, after all the long drawn out palaver about her title, she is now referred to as "dowager". I have never ever seen her referred to as that and she has certainly never used it herself. It is only really relevant if there is another living Lady Avon, but there isn't. Eden's only surviving son was unmarried and without issue, and the earldom is now extinct. I would propose to delete this slightly superfluous addition, but await the comments of others.IXIA (talk) 06:13, 18 July 2014 (UTC)
thread_title: Dowager?

message: Regarding the tag for page numbers of references, I'm not clear what the convention is now that writers often use e-books rather than hard copies as their sources.IXIA (talk) 07:37, 12 October 2014 (UTC)
thread_title: Page numbers

message: Not terribly impressed with this. I think it was established some time ago that it was easier to call her "Lady Avon" throughout. "Clarissa Spencer-Churchill" is rather a mouthful (maybe just "Clarissa Churchill"?) and "Clarissa" borders on the over-familiar. This has also led to mistakes: for example that, by 1952, she was Lady Eden, which she wasn't (Eden became Sir Anthony in 1954). People with time on their hands!IXIA (talk) 18:15, 4 February 2015 (UTC)
