Talk to me about the Morgans of Tredegar at your own peril! Enjoyer of Clipper Teas' Everyday Tea; it fuels most of my editing and research. Varied interests. Most of my articles are just spur-of-the-moment, although some are a long-term projects; the John Morgan article will always be a WIP! :-)... Recently, I find myself correcting infobox names on baronial-articles. It's "[[The Right Honourable]]" in the "honorific prefix" field, and then their spoken title (eg., "The Lord [X]", or alternatively, "The Lord [surname] of [X]", depending on the peerage type) in the "name" field!
Notes to self
- A footnote explaining the Five Year Rule might be useful on pages which cite Frederic handing over the Tredegar Estate to John.
The Tredegar Estates Office might be worthy of an article?Add external links section to John Morgan page with link to his works at artuk.org.- Revamp and expand the agricultural estate section on the John Morgan page. Change to “Tredegar Estate” and clarify the difference between the agricultural estate and town properties, and the fates of each. Use the below template and open a corresponding topic on the talk page. See Missing information for more.
