Modified table[edit]

Paora et al: I propose that we modify / amend the table to show which office(s) an individual held, given that living KCs were redesignated as QCs upon Elizabeth II ascending the throne. What's needed, therefore, is some way of showing "KC" or "QC" or both, plus the death date of the individual (as that determines whether there is redesignation). Note that the same will happen once more when Elizabeth II is succeeded by a male heir. I considered colour-coding for the change of office but that is undesirable for colour-blind readers. Is it also worth changing "year appointed" to "date appointed"? How's the below? Schwede 66 02:46, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Name	Date appointed	Office	Death	Location
John Findlay	7 Jun 1907	KC	7 Dec 1929	Wellington
Thomas Joynt	7 Jun 1907	KC	5 Sep 1907	Christchurch
Rex Mason	1946	KC / QC	2 Apr 1975	Auckland

@Schwede66: Looks good. I'd suggest moving the Location column next to Date appointed, as the location relates to the appointment, not to the death. Is it worth adding portraits? —Paora (talk • contribs) 16:49, 18 April 2021‎ (UTC)[reply]

Name	Date appointed	Location	Office	Date of death
John Findlay	7 Jun 1907	Wellington	KC	7 Dec 1929
Thomas Joynt	7 Jun 1907	Christchurch	KC	5 Sep 1907
Rex Mason	1946	Auckland	KC / QC	2 Apr 1975
Russell Fairbrother	2013	Napier	QC	Living

That's looking splendid! Good idea to include portraits. Ping others with multiple edits (Lcmortensen—MurielMary). Schwede 66 05:39, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

BTW, Arthur Fair is the first in the list who saw Elizabeth II become Queen and thus become a QC. Schwede 66 20:37, 19 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
