thread_title: Heir

message: The usual style for the name of a Baronet is: "Sir Joe Bloggs, Bt." or "Sir Joe Bloggs, Bart."  It is not usual to write the word "Baronet" out in full.  However I am willing to let this go in an encyclopedic article as readers may not be familiar with the usual abbreviations.  In addition, as a Baronetcy is hereditary (although it is not a peerage and not a knighthood), it is possible to refer to someone as the "1st Baronet" or "2nd Baronet"; however this would never usually appear in their formal style of name. See Sir Robert Baden-Powell, Bart.. -- MightyWarrior 23:37, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Baronetcy 

message: Proposed to merge Robert Baden-Powell, 3rd Baron Baden-Powell. Noble does not mean notable. There is little if anything notable about this person. Much of the article is actually about his grandfather, the first baron and his family. The notable content of the article could be covered in this article on Baron Baden-Powell.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 115.42.5.170 (talk) 07:24, 10 January 2022 (UTC)

text: After re-organizing the information and editing to make the subject the focus, there appears to be some substance to the article but on critical examination, there is really little of notability that could not be made in a brief entry in the Baron Baden-Powell article. Looking at each statement as to whether it is notable or not, there is not a single statement that makes this person notable.115.42.6.87 (talk) 23:45, 10 January 2022 (UTC)
thread_title: Merge Robert Baden-Powell, 3rd Baron Baden-Powell

message: Proposed to merge Peter Baden-Powell, 2nd Baron Baden-Powell. Noble does not mean notable. There is nothing notable about this person. He was born, went to school, dropped-out of army officer training, worked for just eleven years, inherited a title, was feted with a few positions for the title and being his father's son, and died. Other than being the son of someone notable (and a disappointment at that) and inheriting a title, there is nothing notable about him. The content of this article could be covered in this article on Baron Baden-Powell.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 115.42.5.133 (talk • contribs) 21:30, April 5, 2022 (UTC)

thread_title: Merge Peter Baden-Powell, 2nd Baron Baden-Powell

message: Proposed to merge Michael Baden-Powell, 4th Baron Baden-Powell. Noble does not mean notable. There is nothing notable about this person. He was born, went to school, worked in menial jobs, migrated, married, had children, inherited a title, was feted for what little was left of the cachet of the title and being his grandfather's grandson. Other than being the grandson of someone notable and inheriting a title, there is nothing notable about him.
