The inclusion of "Rabbi" in the opening sentence is inappropriate, per WP:CREDENTIAL; one editor tried to justified it by saying that it is also a WP:HONORIFIC... but per that guidelines, "styles and honorifics related to clergy" are specifically called out in the first sentence as things that are to be avoided. -- Nat Gertler ( talk) 16:32, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
Response to third opinion request: |
I am responding to a third opinion request for this page. I have made no previous edits on Eliezer Melamed and have no known association with the editors involved in this discussion. The third opinion process is informal and I have no special powers or authority apart from being a fresh pair of eyes. |
WP:HONORIFIC does call out clergy explicitly, and it does not make any exception for those that are commonly used in real life. Nat is correct to point out that all clergy are referred to with their honorifics in real life, and that this does not mean that we do so on Wikipedia. The only way that rabbis can be an exception would be for the guideline to make an explicit exception. If that is wanted, the way to go would be to get a consensus for it at WT:MOSBIO. Until such a consensus is established, doing it is a MOS violation. The fact that it has been done often is irrelevant. De facto doesn't overrule de jure. Stfg ( talk) 22:35, 5 October 2014 (UTC) |
