This should be mostly uncontroversial. Elizabeth Duke is a redirect to a retailer's subsidiary brand. This is a biography article with an improper title. This page can be moved over the redirect and the redirect's functionality restored with a hatlink to Argos (retailer), its current target. Serpent's Choice (talk) 15:02, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've added a hatnote regarding the Elizabeth Duke line of jewelry, and repointed the redirect. All that remains is the actual move. Argyriou (talk) 18:44, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support. Wikipedia's MOS for academic titles states in its first line that "Academic and professional titles (such as "Doctor" or "Professor") should not be used before the name in the initial sentence or in other uses of the person's name." And I'm assuming this applies to article titles too. – Axman () 07:32, 13 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
