Untitled[edit]

Does anyone have any other references to support what is said in this article. I have no reason to think it's wrong but the name change seems so minor (particularly with regard to the Dominions) that there must have been other supporting evidence that the intention was to separate the crown. Even if it's just that the King or British Prime Minister said so. Ben Arnold 02:55, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Royal proclamation omitted ?[edit]

I have just added a "failed verification" tag on the article which I have visited coming from Royal and Parliamentary Titles Act 1927. I can read there that "the King was authorised to issue a royal proclamation within six months of the Act's passing, authorising him to alter the royal style and titles.[3] Following the precedent set by similar legislation in the past, the Act did not itself set out the form of the new style and titles that were to be adopted.". (No source given for the second sentence, which seems plausible).

Indeed, I have visited the 1953 act which mentions "the adoption by Her Majesty (...) of such style and titles as Her Majesty may think fit (...) and (...) the issue by Her for that purpose of Her Royal Proclamation under the Great Seal of the Realm."

I know nothing of the topic, so I cannot help, only point the article is probably erroneous or at least dubious in its current state, e.g. when it asserts that "the act also tidied up use of the title of King of Ireland" : there is no mention of "Ireland" in the act, and a subsequent Royal Proclamation should be mentioned in a correct version of the article, as far as I understand.

Canada[edit]

Interesting, that Canada continues to be the only non-UK Commonwealth realm, to use "United Kingdom" in its style and titles. I've no sources that Canada is planning on 'changing' this situation, anytime soon. So it'll have to remain as written, until then. GoodDay (talk) 21:38, 21 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The Commonwealth didn't exist in 1876[edit]

I removed -"In the Commonwealth realms..."- from the sentence, leaving just "This practice began in 1876, ...". Why? Because I don't believe the Commonwealth of Nations existed in 1876 & thus there were no Commonwealth realms, back then. GoodDay (talk) 21:42, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
