## Notes

; Peer wikilinks  
: The wikilinks of substantive peers (or those in another kind of numbered succession) should always show that number (eg Richard, 1st Earl of Cornwall rather than Richard, Earl of Cornwall), unless other conventions say otherwise (such as that one should always see Prince Edward, Duke of Kent, never Prince Edward, 2nd Duke of Kent). Generally, use the article's title, omitting surplus fore- and surnames or disambiguation.
