Category talk:Members of the Privy Council of the United Kingdom

2004
How about, for naming Prince Philip and Prince Charles, given that they're rather especial cases, a preceeding space-character to cause them to appear on their own at the start of the list?

Removing the dead
What's the policy for this cat when a member dies (i.e. is it a cat of current members, or of those who have ever been members)? I was thinking particularly about Robin Cook, but there are bound to be more. -- Finlay McWalter | Talk 10:11, August 9, 2005 (UTC)


 * It was supposed to be only for living members. Others can be identified by "The Right Honourable" before their names (or "PC" after their names if they're peers). Proteus (Talk) 10:44, 9 August 2005 (UTC)

Category renaming controversy
I have recently renamed this category, closing the debate at Categories for deletion/Log/2006 June 28 to which three Wikipedians contributed a definite "yes". In the light of another Wikipedian's understandable consternation that we have people in this category who, it seems, were never members of the Privy Council of the United Kingdom, and of the above comments (that the category was created for current Privy Councillors only), perhaps some recasting is necessary. My two-penn'orth: what about a category "Privy Councils", and sub-categories for current Privy Councillors together with a sub-category for each historical Privy Council? I don't really know enough about it to suggest more. --RobertG &#9836; talk 14:50, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

No such thing as PC of the UK
Afterwards we can divide it into current and past if folks so wish. - Kittybrewster 00:33, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

Divide category
I suggest we divide these folk into Category:Current members of HM Most Honourable Privy Council and Category:Previous members of HM Most Honourable Privy Council. - Kittybrewster 17:00, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
