Conflict of interest edit request[edit]

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.

What I think should be changed: Dr Shubulade (Lade) Smith CBE is the new President (as of 8pm on 11 July 2023) of the Royal College of Psychiatrists. She is the first Black President of the College.
Why it should be changed: Being President of a UK Royal Medical College is a significant position and should be reflected on her Wikipedia page.
