Date of death[edit]

It was originally announced that he had died on "Tuesday" (8 April), and that date went into the article. In yesterday's Age, a piece about him said he'd died "on Monday night" (7th), so I changed the article. In today's Age, there's a full obituary, also with the date 7 April, but in the Death/Funeral notices there's a notice from the religious fraternity that says he died on "8th April". Apparently he died in his sleep and was found dead in the morning, so nobody knows exactly when he died, and different people are assuming different dates. So, what do we do in cases like this? -- JackofOz (talk) 06:46, 10 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sir[edit]

Although it is true in Britain that clergy who are knighted do not use the title of "Sir", in Australia this restriction does not apply and those who have been knighted have generally used the title. This included Cardinal Gilroy who was commonly referred to as "Cardinal Sir Norman Gilroy". Frank Little was much more often referred to as "Sir Frank Little" than "Archbishop Little".

I agree. The Tributes and Celebrations pages of the local papers have had many notices about him, all headed "Archbishop Sir Frank Little" etc. -- JackofOz (talk) 03:37, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
