This article shows what an up-to-date encyclopaedia Wikipedia can be. It was only mentioned on the news in the early evening tonight (Sunday 6 June) that the Duke and Duchess of
Sussex have given birth to a daughter, and already this news is in the article. Rollo August (talk) 16:53, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
"Post-royal" work?
Since the duke and duchess both retain their styles as royal highnesses, even if they do not use them, I think that heading is a bit misleading & should be reworded. --SergeWoodzing (talk) 10:40, 20 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
"Work outside the royal sphere" is clunky and not much better. Their titles, while retained, are in abeyance (mentioned in that section or other) and their professional work is not done on behalf of their royal statuses. The only other thing I can think of is "Work in the United States" and I don't particularly care for it.--Bettydaisies (talk) 16:44, 22 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you! Better (though perhaps not much) mainly because it is not clearly misleading. Nothing in their lives is "post-royal" since they are still royal, whether they use it or not. We are not here to interpret but to give readers verifiable facts with as much clarity as possible. "Post-royal work" doesn't qualify. --SergeWoodzing (talk) 09:53, 23 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The opening sentence clearly identifies Harry as a royal - "Post-royal work" iw accurate since they no longer carry out royal duties as they did before.[1] Another solution I can think of is separating from "Public life" and creating a "Career" section, much like Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie.--Bettydaisies (talk) 21:45, 23 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I understood "post-royal work" to mean post-royal work, i.e. life and work after royal engagements, rather than as post-royal work. The career suggestion is even more elegant, though. Surtsicna (talk) 23:06, 23 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with either the restoration of "Post-royal" or a "Career" section, as both flow better than the current alternative. For the sake of uniformity with Meghan's page, the content could also be merged into her existing career section (which might have to be more succinctly relabelled).--Bettydaisies (talk) 21:59, 25 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
