Substantial Edit

I have substantially edited this article to ensure it conforms with Wikipedia policies. The two most relevant policies are WP:GNG and WP:NOTGENEAOLOGY. See also the AfD re-direct decision in respect of Denis Alexander, which established the principle that in respect of title-holding UK nobility mentioned at the relevant Wikipedia title article, a second article is appropriate only where the individual is otherwise notable (WP:GNG).

In my view, Nicholas Alexander is arguably notable (WP:GNG) separately from his title solely because he is the Lord Lieutenant of Armagh. The article should therefore exist in spite of being little more than a stub and apparently unlikely of development beyond that. I have removed non-relevant genealogical and biographical information. If Alexander's single claim to notability is in due course felt to fall below WP:GNG standards the article should be re-directed to Earl of Caledon. This would require WP:AfD Emmentalist (talk) 13:37, 26 January 2022 (UTC).[reply]
