Dear UK experts: This abandoned AfC submission will soon be deleted as a stale draft. Is this a notable topic, and should the page be kept and improved instead? —Anne Delong (talk)
Update for Covid-19 Bereaved Families for Justice
Hi there - an article that I created (Covid-19 Bereaved Families for Justice) is in need of an update/overhaul re new information. If anyone is interested in this topic area I would greatly appreciate some more eyes on this. 82.23.242.26 (talk) 18:06, 12 March 2023 (UTC)
Quick help needed!
Hello! On this note: Martin Conway, 1st Baron Conway of Allington#cite note-12, the "column" parameter should be added, but I don't have access to the archives to see which column it is in. Could someone check and add it? Thanks! BhamBoi (talk) 00:20, 30 April 2023 (UTC)
Prince Charles or Charles III??
On Wikipedia, when referring to Charles III before he became king, should he be referred to as Charles III or Prince Charles, because a lot of articles still refer to him as "Prince Charles" and on today's featured article, I changed "Prince Charles" to "Charles III" but it got changed back.

- What about "Charles III, when Prince Charles"?--Bduke (talk) 11:41, 17 May 2023 (UTC)
- do you mean "Charles III, then Prince Charles" GoldenBootWizard276 (talk) 11:46, 17 May 2023 (UTC)
- Possibly the query is inspired by my decision for today's TFA blurb? I write a lot of history articles and it is accepted that figures are referred to by the title they held at the time being referred to - possibly with a parenthetical or foot note. Given how recent Charles' elevation was it seemed worth adding the in line mention - "formally opened by the then Prince Charles". Reconsidering, it still seems a sensible approach, in context.

- I think Charles III, then Prince of Wales is best. GoldenBootWizard276 (talk) 16:14, 17 May 2023 (UTC)
