This article was recently blanked-and-redirected without discussion on its talk page. I have reverted that edit and am opening a discussion about it instead. A.D.Hope (talk) 15:15, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • The proper place for that discussion would be on the other editor's talk page, or the talk page of the list. Why did you invoke deletion processes, when you do not seem to be advocating for deletion? I think speedy keep is appropriate. postdlf (talk) 16:33, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • Regarding that redirection (by someone other than the nominator), this page is about the titles held by the monarch over time, which has changed; that editor tried to redirect to just the titles held by the current monarch, Elizabeth II, which would of course not be correct. postdlf (talk) 22:39, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • KEEP Perfect valid list article, listing a notable subject and aiding in navigation by grouping a lot of related articles. Dream Focus 17:00, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • KEEP - Seems like a valid article that a people would find useful and is definitely notable TimeEngineer (talk) 21:06, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect/merge to Style of the British sovereign. It's a content fork. DrKay (talk) 13:31, 12 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • But that’s not the same precise topic; how the monarch is to be addressed (“style”) does not include listing every title that monarch holds. You had also tried redirecting this list, which covers the titles and honours held over history, to a page that is just about what is held by the current monarch. So you’ve seemed confused (or indifferent) as to the intended scope. postdlf (talk) 14:04, 12 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • Don't tell me about my own edits or the scope of my knowledge. I'm more aware of them than you are, so retorting them back to me and calling me confused is clearly only meant to be aggressive and uncivil. DrKay (talk) 15:05, 12 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per WP:LISTN aides in navigation and provides information for our readers Lightburst (talk) 19:44, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
