message: Since Henry Jones, Sr. went to Oxford and has a British accent is he supposed to be British? This would make Indiana Jones half-British in that case. Antarctic-adventurer (talk) 04:39, 21 June 2010 (UTC)

message: Does anyone know if the character was created with a comma in the name (Henry Jones, Sr.)? Commas in fictional "Jr." names are allowed, and since this page was created with the comma, and if it is verifiable as the character's name the page name should reflect that. If Indiana Jones was characterized with the comma in his name, it should change the mentions at that page as well. Thanks. Randy Kryn (talk) 13:52, 2 April 2018 (UTC)

text: I have moved the article back to Henry Jones, Sr.. For some reason, Anthony Appleyard did not know how to respond to the message you left on his user talk page, probably because the link was an Easter egg link that must be visited in order to see the details.

text: @FMSky: This move has been performed and reverted twice now, so this can’t be uncontroversial. A formal RM would be welcome to have an actual consensus, though. -2pou (talk) 13:43, 31 August 2022 (UTC)

text: *That is where the confusion comes in. WP:JR. covers living or deceased human beings, biographical, not intentionally created artistic characters. The only question here is if a source says that the authors/screenwriters specifically named the character Henry Jones, Sr. or if that name evolved from the film where he calls Indiana "Junior".

message: What is the source for the biographical details (nationality, date of birth, etc)?  They're not mentioned in the original film, and you can't assume he's Scottish just because Sean Connery played him with a Scottish accent.  (He could be Irish-American, or Russian, or even an immortal Egyptian maquerading as a Spaniard). 2A00:23C5:C384:9101:44E1:F65D:D7BC:AA54 (talk) 23:42, 1 September 2023 (UTC)
