Article name change

[edit]

I have moved the article name from "Ranji Hordern" to "H.V. Hordern". First, it is inappropriate that a serious encyclopedia should use nicknames as article titles; that might be OK in less formal publications or cricket magazines, but not here. Secondly, this particular nickname had a quasi-racial origin. Sensitivities were lower 100 years ago, but we should be more careful now. Brianboulton (talk) 18:36, 10 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
