In Template:Post-nominals/GBR, change CH = [[Companion of Honour|CH]] to CH = [[Order of the Companions of Honour|CH]] as per the proper Wiki article name. Zimbabweed (talk) 21:13, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Companion of Honour is a redirect that targets Order of the Companions of Honour, so not done per WP:NOTBROKEN. P.I. Ellsworth , ed. ^{put'er there} 15:31, 23 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please implement the changes at this diff. I've moved |size= to the called templates, to ensure that only the letters are changed in size, not punctuation. ‑‑Neveselbert (talk · contribs · email) 00:14, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please change span class="noexcerpt nowraplinks" style="font-weight:normal;" to span class="nobold noexcerpt nowraplinks" style="font-size:{{#if:{{{unlinked|{{{list|{{{post-noms|}}}}}}}}}|{{{size|85%}}}}};".

Should FRASE be added to the template? It means Fellow of the Royal Agricultural Society of England (RASE). HandsomeFella (talk) 15:17, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Completed – as is common with these post-nominals, a redirect has been created at [[Fellow of the Royal Agricultural Society of England|FRASE]], to direct readers to the associated article. P.I. Ellsworth , ed. ^{put'er there} 10:00, 17 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request 30 January 2025

It is requested that an edit be made to the template-protected template at Template:Post-nominals/GBR.
(edit · history · last · links · sandbox · edit sandbox · sandbox history · sandbox last edit · sandbox diff · transclusion count · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, so that an editor unfamiliar with the subject matter could complete the requested edit immediately.

Edit requests to template-protected pages should only be used for edits that are either uncontroversial or supported by consensus. If the proposed edit might be controversial, discuss it on the protected page's talk page before using this template. Consider making changes first to the template's sandbox before submitting an edit request. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request. When the request has been completed or denied, please add the |answered=yes parameter to deactivate the template.

Description of suggested change: While I understand that Fellow of the Royal Asiatic Society of Great Britain and Ireland can't use FRAS in the template due to naming conflict, changing it to FRAsS seems like an WP:OR. Googling "FRAsS post nominals" have this template as first result.

Using FRAsS internally, while the link label show as FRAS could be better solution.
