The last time this article was moved to 'Thomas Vesey, 1st Baronet', i.e. to take out the 'Sir', it was because of 'MOS:Names'. The relevant part governing the naming conventions for baronets is Wikipedia:Naming conventions (royalty and nobility)#British nobility, #3. "A baronet should never be referred to with the title but without "Sir" preceding (e.g. do not use "William Williams, 2nd Baronet, of Clapton")." Categories like Category:Baronets in the Baronetage of Great Britain show this convention in action. Benea (talk) 02:46, 13 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
