Honourary

[edit]

This article sorta kinda implies that the position is honourary, which I interpret to mean that the person has not actual power or responsibilities, but that the appointment is simply a show of respect. The fact that I'm unsure of this shows that this article desperately needs some rewriting. D O N D E groovily Talk to me 03:33, 8 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I take that back, I misread. D O N D E groovily Talk to me 04:53, 8 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Recorder (legal office)Honorary Recorder — This seems to be the most common term for the modern version of this position. FYI, the historic version is described at Recorder (judge) D O N D E groovily Talk to me 04:53, 8 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose - I contest the assertion that Honorary Recorder (which is the correct spelling) is "the most common term for the modern version of this position". In the UK, Recorder (judge) is not an "historic version", but a current judicial office (in fact my best friend from school sits as a Recorder). So leave as is. – ukexpat (talk) 18:07, 8 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment You're right about the spelling, I thought the "ou" was the British spelling (as this seems to be mainly a British position), but my mistake. Just to comment that this article is unclear as to the term for this position, and alternates between honorary recorder and recorder almost totally randomly.
