Talk:William Cavendish, Marquess of Hartington

message: Since the current Lord Hartington was known as "Bill Burlington" before his grandfather's death, could we not put him at Bill Cavendish, Marquess of Hartington and have the past Lord Hartington at William Cavendish, Marquess of Hartington (with prominent links between them, of course)?

message: OK people, I moved the page, but someone who's able to make something out of these numerous Bill Cavendishes should also:
# Find another appropriate title for William Cavendish. That W.C. doesn't seem to be the "primary" one at first glance. Note that "what links here" for him usually wasn't meant to refer to him.
# Ergo, William Cavendish (disambiguation) should be moved to William Cavendish.
# Please check out what I did at William Cavendish (disambiguation) 
# Someone should sort out Special:Whatlinkshere/William Cavendish
If the practice is that the ancestor of the family (W.C. the courtier) gets the undisambiguated title, please forget #1 and #2. Duja► 09:14, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  And now... 

message: I had removed this section (which is basically speculation about William Cavendish's father's death) a while ago but it has been re-added by the original writer of the section (Malick78).  I'm not going to revert Malick78's reversion of my deletion at the moment but I thought I would see what other people think.
I deleted the section originally because I didn't see that it was relevant to the article in question.  The section has been added by Malick78 to other articles about members of the Cavendish family and it may indeed be relevant to some of them.  I don't however see how it is relevant to this particular article as the death of the subject's father takes place 6 years after the death of the subject himself.
Any opinions?

thread_title:  Early background 

message: Since my move to "William J. R. Cavendish" got reverted back to "William Cavendish, Marquess of Hartington", I suggest simply "Billy Cavendish". The whole "Marquess of Hartington" just makes the article title unnecessarily lengthy. He is more commonly known as simply "William" or "Billy" Cavendish, anyway.
