Need protection from vandalism[edit]

I had to delete one twice today. Article needs protection by an Administrator. Peter K Burian (talk) 16:18, 9 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Requests for page protections are made at Wikipedia:Request for page protection not on talkpages. – Ammarpad (talk) 22:56, 9 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks; this was the first time I have ever decided to ask for protection. I deleted the call to Admin above and requested protection on the page you suggested. Peter K Burian (talk) 23:16, 9 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Still Right Honourable??[edit]

Does Mr Gauke STILL qualify, for being listed as being "Right Honourable"?

He is now an ex MP. So presumably, he is no longer of "Rt Hon" status by holding a present day Privy Council position.

Whether he qualifies instead as Rt Hon via any other method, is not known to me. 82.44.9.199 (talk) 19:58, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Membership of the Privy Council is for life. See The Right Honourable#Privy counsellors. DuncanHill (talk) 20:02, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
