of respecting the personal preferences of subjects of biographical articles as to how they wish to use their names" - but I don't know of a single example where we have altered the bolded text to take into account personal preferences. The bolded text has always reflected the full official name and title of the subject of the article. As such, I don't really see the validity of any of the "against" points in your post, nor do I see the relevance of your second bullet point. A valid "against" argument would be those who have renounced or repudiated their titles should not have the title reflected as part of their official name. Here, we would need to see how Tsang has explicitly rejected his title - the Hong Kong Government doesn't recognize British honors for anyone, not just Tsang, so pointing to the website is not enough. Another valid argument would be that Tsang's connection to the United Kingdom is now too attenuated for the "Sir" to have any significance. Current guidelines says to exclude British post-nominals for non-British subjects. The situation here is a bit trickier as we are dealing with a substantive knighthood held by a former British subject instead of an honorary knighthood bestowed on a foreign citizen. We've kept the "Sir" for other Hong Kong knights (e.g.

would not need to renounce that as China had chosen not to recognize British citizenships acquired under the scheme in the early 90s. Most people do not renounce the British national overseas nationality, so does Nearly Headless Nick has any evidence at all that: 1. he renounced his British nationality; and 2. he had British citizenship (most Hongkongers do not), and had renounced it? Your comments just made you sound like you are not really as informed as you are. Much like how you suggested that the use of the title was to make him sound not Hongkongese. The use of the title might contribute to making him sound less Chinese, but nobody thinks it would make him sound like Hongkongese, only that he's *privileged* and is an establishment elite. There would not be any issue of Sir Donald suing Knowledge or any writer or editor for having "sir" or "KBE" near his name, for the simple fact that he had never renounced it. I'm not certain why some people here are acting as if there will be any actual problem with having them as parts of his name. At the very least, there should be something added after his name that says "also known as Sir Donald Tsang" since he's literally also known as that. Would you not at least agree with that?
899:". The subject did not commit a crime that they wish to hide from the world. The simple fact is that this is not how they have used their name, ever. I am simply saying that as a former British national, they are not closely affiliated with the United Kingdom anymore. "It is common (in fact standard) for non-British governments to avoid listing British honors in their official publications, and for non-British politicians to avoid use of their British honors." – Absolutely, many foreign nationals may not wish to renounce the honors conferred upon them by foreign governments but at the same time they may not wish to use them regularly. That does not mean that Knowledge editors will determine how their name appears in their biography articles. The subject has consistently used "Donald Tsang" as their proper and complete name, rather than "Sir Donald Tsang" and to that effect we must ensure that we are sensitive enough to respect their choice with regard to how they wish to use their name, rather than force a title upon them which they don't wish to use. In many cases, the governments may not permit their subjects/citizens to legally use titles accorded to them by foreign governments. 2022:
called "negative effect" argument, then how much information do we need to "cover up"/"relocate" in order to "please" the biographee or to have the article be rewritten in a degree or in a manner the bopgraphee likes or endorses? Is it our duty to portray someone in a way he/she likes in the article? What we should bear in mind instead is to be politically netural, upholding objectivity in writing wikipedia biographical articles. As long as the facts exist, it would be "self-deceiving" to eliminate the "negative effect" by moving the title to somewhere else. If we treat Tsang's article differently from others regarding British titles, we will create a feeling to our readers that we are intentionally hiding something out of political reasons. So why dont we be straight-forward and be in-line with our existing established practice? As Ohconfucius points out, "the bestowal of the knighthood is a highly notable fact that, by not having it in the lead, the readers would be astonished".
2280:
additional clause permitting a substantive knight to use the title “Sir” only if he has close ties with the United Kingdom? The fact is that Tsang is not only a “member” of the British Empire but a substantive “knight commander” of the British Empire. He was invested a substantive instead of honorary knight because of his close relationship with the UK. To treat him different by not to use “Sir” at the lead is to negate and deny these important facts. So as long as his name is not crossed out from the order’s register, his ties with the United Kingdom remains. Not to mention his nearly 30 years of service in the British colonial government of Hong Kong, after 1997 we see that Tsang has kept his ties with the UK in both the official and private spheres of his life. In his official capacity, he has met successive Prime Ministers including Tony Blair, Gordon Brown and David Cameron (see

be entitled to a British national overseas passport, for British consular support outside of China, Hong Kong, and Macau, to join the British military (but not the Chinese ones, as Hongkongers are not allowed to join the Chinese military regardless of nationality) if one has been living in the UK for 5 years or more, as well as to vote in all UK elections if one is living in the UK (not entitled to absentee voting, but in practice they may not ban it). BNOs can also queue the UK/EU queue at UK airports but one must fill in the declaration form normally filled by non-EU nationals. BNOs have no citizenship rights in the European Union, but from personal experience, EU officers have no idea and they'd let BNOs in without even opening the passport.
1831:"Does not use" and "does not with to be known by" are two separate matters. We can't use evidence of the former to prove the latter. It would be great if someone here could pull up direct quotations on what Tsang has said regarding his title. With this evidence, we would need to make a judgment call - at what degree of repudiation do we need for us to exclude the title from the lead sentence? Simply not using the title should not be enough, as the examples I've linked to above show many instances of people who intentionally do not use their titles but still have the titles appearing in the bolded text in the lead sentence of their Knowledge articles.-- 2018:
but we still put their full names down in their biographical entries. The reasons is because this – to put down the full name, full post-nominal letters, full peerages and full title, is what we usually do in the opening paragraph of an entry in Knowledge. We have already used the more commonly known “Donald Tsang” in Tsang’s article name and info box, so using “Sir Donald Tsang Yam-keun” at the lead does not hinder readers from knowing the fact the “Donald Tsang” is the name that Tsang is more commonly known. To treat Tsang’s article differently from others may be an act of self-censorship.
2079:@EricSerge: Please refer to the existing discussions, as your questions have already been addressed and are not part of the dispute. Tsang is entitled to "Sir" because he was knighted when still a Commonwealth citizen; it does not matter that he later ceased to be a Commonwealth citizen as the title is held for life. That he is entitled to "Sir" is not subject to dispute here as this is corroborated by multiple reliable sources. We are not listing "KBE" as post-nominals without the "Sir" as that would perpetuate a misconception that he is not entitled to "Sir" when he is. 2847:: "For persons whose notability (since being awarded their KBE) are mainly notable in a non-Commonwealth jurisdiction/culture, we should follow the conventions of the appropriate location, with the conventions of England taking second place", "We should take the preference of the person concerned into account" and "We should take into account that acceptance of awards or use of titles might be illegal or otherwise frowned upon in certain places and that our use of such honorifics might imply such use", should be taken into due consideration. — 73: 245: 224: 2289:) and other British officials in numerous occasions. It can be said that the British Prime Ministers meet Tsang more frequently than they meet the President of PRC. In his private life, Tsang has retained his personal friendships with many of his British friends and former colleagues, including Sir David Ford, Lord Howe of Aberavon and so on. All in all, I find it awkward to suddenly invent a criteria that one need to have close ties in order to be addressed with British title in the lead of Knowledge biographical entry.-- 2337:
he does not style himself with the title, it does not imply that he is rejecting the title. Even if he has stated that he does not intend to use the title, it does not amount to him refusing the title. In fact, based on the source stated somewhere above, he has accepted his knighthood and intends to keep it, but just chooses not to print his title on his business card. As such, the title "Sir" is still valid, and definitely should be shown somewhere in the article, whether it is in the lead paragraph or the infobox.
1135:
the Sir is not actually a part of his name (unlike the "Piyush" in the Bobby Jindal example) but rather is something that designates an honor, the possible blp issue is more important than the guideline. The fact that he was so honored is clearly indicated in the body of the article so the fact itself is not hidden. Note that this only applies to the use of the title itself in the lead, there is no reason (at least none given in the arguments) why the lead cannot include a statement saying that he was knighted. --
979:
Donald Tsang, and he is free to either use the title or not. This is an entitlement, or a privilege that the subject of this article may or may not choose to use. He clearly does not. The point you raise in the first paragraph of your response is an irrelevant argument. The question in principle that has arisen is how do these individuals use their names? Hillary Clinton's legal name is "Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton" and similarly Donald Tsang's legal name is "Donald Tsang" not "Sir Donald Tsang".
963:
independence all have "Sir" in their biographies. The Hong Kong people who were knighted before 1997 similarly have all have "Sir" in their biographies. We would have to make an exception to the convention here. The problem is, anyone who is entitled to "Sir" by definition has a closer connection to the United Kingdom than someone who is not; that is, that person had to have been at the time the honor was conferred a subject of the British monarch. Why do we list "Sir" but not "Mister" in articles? --
2783:
the title, and has a preference against it (Economist), (ii) Tsang is PRC national and (iii) is serving as the Chief Executive of HKSAR and so cannot lawfully hold any titles according to official protocol. Tsang has not publicly renounced the title but he has consciously kept his official positions within the government of HKSAR. He has also stated a preference to be referred to with only his name, though he says that he will use the postnom on his business card (as established above). —
2661:
provide us more clarity in this case is the status of PRC/HKSAR law on foreign titles. For instance, Indian nationals cannot accept and/or use foreign titles as per federal law, hence there can be no entitlement in that scenario. HKSAR is not a member of the Commonwealth realm anymore, and must comply with its own laws or PRC law where applicable. Relevant questions: (i) Can HKSAR/PRC citizens accept and use foreign titles? (ii) Can HKSAR/PRC officials accept and use foreign titles? —
192: 1346:. He has yet to renounce his knighthood, and while he does not actively use it, the fact remains that he is still entitled to style himself "Sir". Because he was a British subject at the point of time when he was knighted, his knighthood is not honorary. While the title "Sir" should not appear in the page title as he's not commonly known by it, it definitely should be in the lead section until such a time comes when he decides to officially renounce his knighthood. 553: 255: 506: 130: 106: 3576: 903:
Rodham Clinton is an appropriate reference in this particular case because it is evidence of Knowledge using some common sense to use a name for her article which she uses while conducting her business. The subject of the article uses "Donald Tsang" only when they conduct their regular business, and not "Sir Donald Tsang". If it were a matter of law, then we would be using only their legal name in the article as per Hong Kong law.
64: 3586: 2557:, whom Knowledge does refer to as Count Pavel Ignatiev even though he survived another 27 years after being demoted. George Ignatieff and Michael Ignatieff, on the other hand, never officially became the count and therefore are not referred to as counts. Donald Tsang's case is, therefore, in line with Pavel Ignatieff, because he officially accepted and held the honour, but subsequently changed nationality. 1986:
appointed to serve in various public bodies, such as judges from other common law jurisdictions, are permitted to use British titles without post-nominal letters if they so wish. It appears that Tsang has simply followed prevailing policy of the HK government. But the manual of style of the HK government should not be adopted or followed by Knowledge as Knowledge is not an extension of HK government.
1284:. That the media or government does not use the title on a regular basis is not a valid consideration in determining official names and titles in the bolded first sentence; it is only a valid concern for the title of the article and subsequent mentions of the subject after the first sentence of the article. Inclusion of the title "Sir" is consistent with existing Knowledge conventions: see 716:
letters (honorific suffixes), other than those denoting academic degrees, should be included when they are issued by a country or widely recognizable organization with which the subject has been closely associated." Bill Gates is not "closely associated" with the United Kingdom. You may want to argue that this is similarly no longer the case for Donald Tsang, but the Manual of Style
754:: being awarded a knighthood is IMHO important enough to warrant a mention in the lead, even if it's just to display the "KBE", "Bt." or whatever the underlying honour is, with or without a footnote, in the same way as "GBS". It's argued that "Sir Donald" is sometimes used to disparage, but that is surely irrelevant. We should place greater importance on the fact that Tsang 140: 2827:
business card does not include any non-Hong Kong postnominals - this is an expression of protocol, not of right. The issue we are supposed to be discussing here (which we were doing until KC9TV derailed us with some unsubstantiated claims), is how we want to display this right (coupled with usage) in the article, not whether he has this right in the first place. --
2756:: "Chinese nationals of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region with right of abode in foreign countries may, for the purpose of travelling to other countries and territories, use the relevant documents issued by the foreign governments." Senior officers of the HKSAR government are forbidden to hold the "right of abode in any foreign country". This is stated 2004: 1998: 2871:
or less continues to follow British conventions - as long as it's not from the government, British honors do appear on a regular basis, so there is no "local" conventions, so to speak, preventing us from putting British honors next to the name of a Hong Konger. Whether the "Sir" appears on a regular basis depends on the individual - more often for

bestowed by the British Royalty is neither a simple matter nor a joke. Donald Tsang is (i) no longer a British citizen and therefore cannot be said to be closely connected to Great Britain anymore and (ii) he has never used either the title or the postnom by himself is enough evidence that he does not wish to use it. I think the article on
2029:
quote is that the British government certainly does not have a policy on Donald Tsang. But it equally does not have a policy on other individuals such as (Sir) Tom Jones and (Dame) Helen Mirren (Royal family members and British public office holders may be an exception). So there is no point to argue in this discussion using that quote.
2974:. The fact that he was knighted is significant and it receives sufficient coverage in the lead section. In case the material is reintroduced in the body text, it should accurately represent the sources it claims to represent and devoid of any personal interpretations or deductions of an individual editor on the subject (please see 2843:
in absolute terms, not with qualifications. Whether he is simply following HKSAR protocol is immaterial, the fact is that he has not used it post-handover, does not use it currently and has stated in clear terms that he will not use the title. The general practice on Knowledge as illuminated by Boson on

Let's say you were born in Hong Kong in 1990, and you have done nothing whatsoever about your nationality (other than registering as a British national overseas).

Being permitted to use travel documents issued by other countries is not the equivalent of being in a position to accept the nationality of another country. There are a handful of countries in the world which issue passports to non-citizen investors. The relevant facts here are (i) Tsang does not use

Chinese citizens are supposedly forbidden from holding another nationality (but in the case of Hong Kong this is intentionally unenforced except for senior government ministers), so it is safe to say Tsang is only Chinese by nationality... at least until next month.

Whether or not he chooses to use the title, the fact remains that the title still belongs to him. He has not renounced the title, and neither has he requested that people not refer to him with the title. While it is true that as a personal choice, and perhaps due to protocol as a government official,
2199:
The question over here is over a British title, not the full legal name of the subject which is accurately stated. You are conflating two different issues. Furthermore, you will not find sources stating that "Bill Clinton does not use his full name anymore" unlike Tsang's case where both Reuters and
2028:
Some opponents have quoted a spokesman of the British government who said that “the British government does not have a policy on Donald Tsang’s use of British title” and therefore, “it is for the individual concerned to decide whether they use or wish to be known by their title”. Our response to this
1989:
Some sources, like Reuters, have “observed” that Tsang “does not use the title”. But according to a meeting between Tsang and the media in 2005, Tsang only admitted that “he does not show his British title along with his honorary titles of doctor on his name card as the Chief Secretary of HKSAR” (See
1777:
The dispute here is not whether Tsang is entitled to the title "Sir" (he is), or whether he should be referred to as "Sir Donald" in the body of the article (he should not), but whether "Sir" should appear in the bolded text in the lead sentence of the article. You state that "Knowledge has a history

Applying Boson's criteria, British honors continue to be used in Hong Kong, but inconsistently. This is contrasted with American usage, which does not use post-nominals except in certain (i.e. medical and scientific) academic settings for academic degrees and personal memberships. But Hong Kong more

Assuming that PRC/HKSAR law stands silent either through the Constitution or statute regarding the use of titles by their citizenry, it is true that the UK government says he is entitled to the title. The fact, however, is that he has a preference against using the title - the Economist asserts that
1934:
It is the established practice in Knowledge that full British titles with post-nominal letters are displayed at the lead of biographical articles for those who have received any order of chivalry or substantive knighthood from the British crown. Tsang is a substantive knight so he should be treated
1800:
Nowhere in my statement above do I claim that Tsang is not entitled to use the honour. Renouncing an honorific bestowed by the British crown is neither a simple matter nor a joke. That Tsang has consistently not used the honorific post-handover is an undisputed fact. This is sufficient evidence of
1109:
Where is this assertion about his not being British coming from? Hong Kong permanent residents born before 1997 were mostly "British nationals (overseas)", and he does not need to renounce that in order to take up any positions in the government. In fact, ever if he had British citizenship, he still
1006:
The Manual of Style states to include "Sir" as part of the bolded text. Unlike post-nominals, there are no qualifications to this rule. We would have to create one to exclude "Sir" here. Titles are related to but separate from legal names. My point about legal names is in response to you bringing up
978:
There is no "legal title" issue here, these are honorifics conferred by a foreign government which the subject of the article is no longer associated with. He has also consistently chosen to use simply "Donald Tsang" as his name. As evidenced above, the British government does not have a policy on

I am not aware of any issues surrounding Snoop Dogg's or World Metta's use of their legal names.

Matters of law? Does Donald Tsang's Hong Kong SAR passport refer to him as "Sir Donald Tsang"? There are no legalities involved here with the use of titles. The subject is not even actively trying to revise their legal name (in case they did, we ought to respect even that). The article on Hillary

As I stated above, Tsang's personal preference only has a bearing on how we refer to him on subsequent mentions, but per 724:
What news articles use on a regular basis is relevant to deciding our article titles, but irrelevant in deciding what the full name is. For each person, there is only one full name; this is a question of accuracy and is not negotiable. If the knighthood were so bothersome to Mr Tsang as you contend,
2913:
Jiang has asked me to clarify my close above. On rereading the discussion, my conclusion is that the RfC only addressed whether or not Tsang should be titled "Sir" and that the RfC concluded that he should not, primarily because of blp issues. However, the discussion is inconclusive as to whether a

The text should not include the "Sir". Both sides make good points. On the one hand, we have a guideline for British titles that say the sir should be included. On the other hand, we have the fact that Mr. Tsang does not himself use the title and evidence that he prefers not to. However, given that

That the subject doesn't use "Sir", and that news media doesn't regularly use it, is just reason to avoid "Sir Donald" in subsequent mentions in this article and to avoid using "Sir Donald" in all in other articles (lists and the like). But there is one place where this title must and should appear

BLP violations are statements on living persons that are not backed up by references. We have referenced the Economist and New York Times explicitly affirming that he is entitled to use the title "Sir". The references, and the quality of such references, already prove suitability for inclusion. The

above focuses on Tsang's position as the impetus behind not using the title, implying that he has no personal opposition to having the title imposed on him. To determine Tsang's personal preference, we will need to wait until he steps down next month to see whether he decides to use it in personal
2705:
Since we are venturing into speculation rather than fact, I think it would be safe to assume that since Tsang has happily held his position as the Chief Executive of Hong Kong for the past few years, he intends to follow HKSAR protocol rather than use the title. Since HKSAR is officially a part of
2609:
It seems that you are confusing country-specific protocol with an universal right. The title comes from a British honor - only the United Kingdom's recognition of his title is sufficient and relevant for us to state that he is entitled to the title. It is common practice for countries to disregard
2351:
I agree with The dog2 to a great extent. This is one of the areas where Knowledge policy breaks down: Sir Donald himself is ambivalent as to whether he should be called "Sir", therefore BLP guidelines have no effect on this issue. However, the fact that he made clear he accepted the KBE means that
2113:
Let me also add: the reasons for excluding the title "Sir" are the same as those for exluding "KBE" - you will never see "Mr Donald Tsang, KBE" anywhere, so it would be unusual (and IMO misleading, by suggesting the knighthood is honorary) for Knowledge to include the post-nominals while excluding
629:
It is common (in fact standard) for non-British governments to avoid listing British honors in their official publications, and for non-British politicians to avoid use of their British honors. Tsang similarly does not use the post-nominals "KBE". This, along with not using "Sir" has nothing to do
603:
The subject of the article does not use the title "Sir" ever since his knighthood prior to the handover in 1997. No Hong Kong government publications or mainstream media websites refer to him as such. Re-including the title is a BLP violation and should not be done until this dispute is resolved.
2252:
The Lady Gaga story is reportedly false. The issue of name and title should not be conflated. Donald Tsang does not have any close connections with the United Kingdom anymore and he has not used the the title post-handover. His full name is correctly displayed in the lead section ("Donald Tsang
2021:
Some have suggested that the use of the British title at the lead "could have some negative effect". However, there is no solid grounds supporting the argument and the accusation that the use of "Sir" could be a defamation to Tsang's reputation has been unfound either. If we are to endorse the so
2937:
1. Hongkongers are British nationals overseas. Sir Donald wouldn't have to renounce that, and most people do not renounce it. 2. Hongkongers were not British citizens prior to the handover. It would thus not make sense to say "no longer" if he never was one. 3. If he acquired British citizenship
2826:
There is no Hong Kong law prohibiting either ordinary PRC nationals nor the Chief Executive from either accepting or holding any titles. Protocol may dictate that Tsang does not use a non-Hong Kong title in official capacity, but protocol does not dictate whether he holds a particular title. His

Sure, so we agree on the fact that Donald Tsang prefers not to use the title? KC9TV asserts that Donald Tsang is not entitled to use the title, while you think he is. The British government is clearly of the opinion that he is entitled to the title, as per sources discussed above. What would

I hope you are not serious. I don't think the subject of the article has an issue with the title itself, but the fact that he has consistently not used this title either himself or in Hong Kong government documents is enough proof that he does not want to continue using it. Renouncing an honor
