As a life member of the House of Lords he is certainly Right Honourable, but I'm not sure whether or not he is still Right Reverend. Is he still a bishop? I notice that the title was changed from Most Reverend when he stood down as Archbishop of Canterbury. Apuldram ( talk) 15:27, 9 April 2013 (UTC)
I have reverted the deletion by 71.225.117.23 ( talk) of information relating to the Collegium Augustinianum, because the information deleted is covered by citation of a reliable source (the Collegium Augustinianum itself). Repeated deletion by 71.255.117.29 without explanation looks like edit warring. I have warned the user. Apuldram ( talk) 10:16, 17 June 2013 (UTC)
The Signature in the Article seems outdated. 13:44, 5 December 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.30.84.71 ( talk)

As the MOS states, a position can be capititalised when it is "a formal title for a specific entity (or conventional translation thereof) is addressed as a title or position in and of itself". This is clearly the case for "Archbishop of Canterbury" as it is for "President of the United States". Elsewhere in the MOS it states that a bishop's formal title or position should be capitalied. Anglicanus ( talk) 10:59, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
I did not see anything in this article on how Rowan Williams has presented one of the Reith Lectures for 2022, on "Freedom of Religious Worship". Where should this information go? Rollo August ( talk) 22:11, 9 December 2022 (UTC)
As Tim riley explained on the Randall Davidson talk page, bishops hold a more senior position than peers and ministers. Therefore, in my opinion, we should use Williams's title and style as an archbishop of Canterbury (The Most Rev and Right Hon Rowan Williams) to name him in the infobox rather than his title as a peer.
