English judge?

[edit]

As I've pointed out at Talk:Richard Morgan (MP for Gloucester), Morgan was actually Welsh. The only justification for calling him an "English judge" is that he was appointed to posts within the English legal system. However, that is a very odd usage - not at all understandable to most readers. There is clearly a need for better title before the other page can be merged. Either "16th-century judge" or "16th-century politician" would be fine. Any more interesting ideas? (Not that imagination is necessarily a good thing in devising titles.)

I have altered the dab to (Tudor judge) because everyone knows about 'enry VIII but for may people 16th century is confusing -- it someone in the 1600s innit? -- PBS (talk) 07:35, 15 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
No-one will be fooled by the apparent naivety with which you have made an ethnocentric and ideologically-motivated change of this sort. Sjwells53 (talk) 07:39, 16 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
