Official titles, but not generic job descriptions, when used with names (or pronouns, etc., directly referential to the same individual) are upper-cased, not just in Wikipedia but in virtually all formal writing:

  • he was an Under-Secretary-General of the United Nations and Special Representative for Children and Armed Conflict from 1997 to 2005
  • she was a cab driver
  • they served as Special Agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation together in the 1990s
  • they were both detectives
  • She is the Queen of England not the President of the United States
  • they are all kings, queens, presidents, or other heads of state
