The Right Honourable Michaëlle Jean incorrect wearing of insignias

I am wondering if we should not change this photograph. It is incorrect for a Canadian to wear two neck insignias at the same time, and in particular, over a winter jacket. I would recommend that we change this example on how one wears Canadian Orders, Decorations and medals.

Why list it twice?

In this & related Canadian orders, medals, etc pages. Why do we need to have "Monarch of Canada" in the infobox twice? It's already in the head of the infobox. GoodDay (talk) 15:57, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Isn't that a question for Template talk:Infobox order? Since the template has separate fields for the sovereign and the awarder. --₪ MIESIANIACAL 16:02, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I thank you for the directory & will bring the issue up there. GoodDay (talk) 16:03, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The term "monarch of Canada" is neither a title nor a proper noun. Even per WP:JOBTITLES, the word "monarch" should not be capitalized. Why you'd capitalize "monarch" right after you've gone through multiple articles changing "Governor General of Canada" to "governor general of Canada" and "Lieutenant Governor of [Province]" to "lieutenant governor of [Province]" is mystifying. --₪ MIESIANIACAL 16:19, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Lower case in the body of the page. But uppercase in the infobox of the page. GoodDay (talk) 16:23, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

In fact, several months ago, an RFC was opened (I believe at Joe Biden) over whether or not to lowercase to "46th president of the United States" in the infobox. The result was to keep it upper cased as "46th President of the United States". GoodDay (talk) 16:27, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

"President of the United States" is a title. "Queen of Canada" is a title. "The monarch of Canada" is not. --₪ MIESIANIACAL 16:30, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I've asked the folks at both MOS:CAPS & WP:JOBTITLES, to clarify what to do. I hope they don't give us mixed messages. GoodDay (talk) 16:33, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
