Talk:Richard Harvey (scientist)

Awards
, if you don't think honorific_suffix should exist, I'd suggest proposing its removal at Template talk:Infobox scientist and/or Template talk:Infobox person. Until that happens though, suffixes are appropriately represented using that parameter rather than awards. Nikkimaria (talk) 15:29, 30 December 2016 (UTC)


 * Hello I don't have a problem with honorific_suffix, but the edits duplicated content (and removed others), please be more careful when switching infobox templates. Duncan.Hull (talk) 08:41, 31 December 2016 (UTC)
 * It's simply incorrect to say that my edits duplicated content - my version used honorific_suffix instead of awards, as is appropriate. On several occasions it has been your edit that was duplicative, such as here or here, where your changes resulted in the same content being displayed in both awards and honorific_suffix. So it would seem that it is you who needs to be more careful. Nikkimaria (talk) 13:22, 31 December 2016 (UTC)
 * The edit history of the Ian A. Graham article you mention says otherwise (read it). Your edit (not mine) here duplicated info by adding FRS as an honorific_suffix (when it was already listed as an award = ... ) and also mentioned in the leader text "Ian Alexander Graham FRS". A pointless waste of your time and mine (IMHO), not important if it was just this article, but its happening in many articles Duncan.Hull (talk) 22:34, 31 December 2016 (UTC)
 * You're reading the diffs incorrectly. That version of the article does not include honorific_suffix at all. I added honorific_suffix in this edit, which does not include awards at all. It was your edit here that resulted in both being used. Nikkimaria (talk) 00:21, 1 January 2017 (UTC)
