Reverend Green - incorrect, or not
It's inaccurate to say "Mr. Green in North American versions and, incorrectly, Reverend Green in later UK versions", because that suggests that his name is something other than "Reverend Green" in the UK. This is not the case. His name is "Reverend Green". Whether the usage of "Reverend" is correct is not the issue - the point is that the current state of the article suggests that his name is not "Reverend Green", whereas it is: - "The game's six characters are Miss Scarlett, Professor Plum, Mrs Peacock, the Reverend Green, Colonel Mustard and the new Dr Orchid" for example.

 * ...the current state of the article suggests that his name is not "Reverend Green"
 * I disagree that it suggests your interpretation. The character was originally (and correctly) named "Reverend Mr Green"; he was then renamed (incorrectly) Reverend Green. That it means the usage of "Reverend" is incorrect is clear from the inclusion of both the appropriate and inappropriate use of the adjective in the same sentence. "Reverend Mr Green (Mr. Green in North American versions and, incorrectly, Reverend Green in later UK versions) is a green piece."Misha An interested observer of this and that 23:44, 2 December 2016 (UTC)
 * What's your citation for this? The original 1949 Waddingtons' Cluedo rules only list the green character as "The Rev. Green" and later by example, "the Reverend Green". Unless you have another citation that revises that labeling, with "Mr", then the character must be listed as The Reverend Green for the original edition and "Mr. Green" in North American editions.--Closettrekker (talk) 01:49, 3 August 2018 (UTC)

Accusation
The article states " The accusation can include any room, not necessarily the one occupied by the player (if any), and may be made immediately following a suggestion that is not disproved."

In both my 1960's UK ruleset and in the PDF ruleset linked by the reference, I can see nothing to support the "that is not disproved".

The PDF rules state: "You may if you wish, make a Suggestion followed by an Accusation on the same turn." and "When you think you've figured out which three cards are in the envelope, you may, on your turn, make an Accusation and name any three elements you want..."

There is nothing to say your suggestion must be disproved - indeed it may be a tactical suggestion to put others off in case you are wrong.

Thherefore I am deleting that phrase in the article and referencing this talk edit. -- SGBailey (talk) 14:25, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
