Talk:Brian Rix

message: I've added Shelley's last name to the info box: it looked a little odd with her two siblings being mentioned with their full names and her just having her forename: I assume she shared their surname? Dom Kaos (talk) 17:41, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

message: Since Sir Brian has both a CBE and a knighthood, does that make him a KCBE?  Or is that something different? Paul Magnussen (talk) 15:54, 24 July 2013 (UTC)

message: Lord Rix is a Baron, therefore he is formally addressed as "Lord Rix". You would indeed put "The Lord Rix" on the envelope if you were writing a formal letter to him, but you wouldn't call him that orally, either formally or informally, nor would you use it in any other normal print context. All WP:RS call him "Lord Rix" in print, which is a correct form of address in that context. If you do want to call him by his full legal title in the box, then do so: but be aware that it's "The Lord Rix CBE DL", and fill in the relevant fields: see William Cecil, 1st Baron Burghley for an example of how to do it. To call him "The Lord Rix" here is neither one nor the other and is a hypercorrection which just looks wrong to a British reader.  -- Markshale (talk) 10:13, 9 August 2016 (UTC)
