Academic titles
Wikipedia's Manual of Style instructs editors not to use academic titles such as "Dr." before a subject's name.

This may seem strange if you come from a culture where such titles are normally used. Fifty years ago in West Germany, for instance, one would never have referred to a male professor except by the almost militaristic "Herr Doktor Professor". The use of such titles is less common in Commonwealth countries (the Dictionary of National Biography, for example, avoids them), and is even more rare in the United States, where it would sound like sycophancy.

In any case, the English-language Wikipedia has adopted a standard of not using them. You can see the style in action at such articles as List of Nobel laureates by country and featured articles about universities, such as Dartmouth College and Georgetown University. Don't use "Dr." here. --Worldbruce (talk) 01:25, 31 January 2021 (UTC)
