The Return of A.J. RafflesThe Return of A. J. Raffles – Per WP:SPACEINITS, our MOS prescribes a space between consecutive initials in personal names. As this is an artistic work, this may not apply here, but the addition of the space may help towards WP:CONSISTENCY. So, looking at sources, the original book cover seems to show no spaces at all (even between the "J." and the "R") and styles it The Return of A.J.Raffles, [1] yet the publisher's own website favours the space in text, [2] and a Google search comes up with various permutations, so there appears to be no "official" styling on this. For these reasons, we should defer to our own MOS in this case, the same style preferred by the Random House website. Rob Sinden (talk) 09:46, 26 August 2015 (UTC) --Relisted.
