Not so. There are redlinks at Williams Baronets for Sir John Williams, 1st Baronet, of Minster and Sir John Williams, 1st Baronet, of Bodelwyddan. I'm not sure either is provably notable, however. Choess 14:14, 11 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
I think there could well be more hiding in the woodwork. John Williams is a particularly common name in Wales! Deb 16:11, 11 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
of the city of London just sounds silly. --Counter-revolutionary 16:38, 11 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
As opposed to all the other silly-sounding peerage titles? Deb 12:46, 13 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
You misunderstand. This is not only silly, but incorrect. It isn't a peerage title either. --Counter-revolutionary 13:52, 13 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
So what should it be in order to preserve disambiguation? Deb 21:12, 13 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
Have a list of Sir John Williams, 1st Baronet with ref. to the of the City of London in the disambiguation page. --Counter-revolutionary 21:14, 13 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
But we've already got that. Deb 21:18, 13 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
Ah, I see the problem! More than one page can't be called...I suppose this shall have to do. --Counter-revolutionary 21:24, 13 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
Would Sir John Williams, 1st Baronet Williams of the City of London be any better, do you think? Deb 21:59, 13 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
Probably, in terms of accuracy, yes. --Counter-revolutionary 02:22, 14 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
Okay, I checked the conventions and it looks like we're in the clear to move it. Deb 12:25, 14 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
Moved to Sir John Williams, 1st Baronet, of the City of London. "Baronet Williams" was incorrect; the surname does not form part of the baronetal title. Opera hat (talk) 08:34, 26 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
