[edit]Hello, My name is St.Yvan; I'm a visual artist from Serbia and Montenegro (former Yugoslavia), and am preparing an experimental low-budget movie about Unity Valkyrie Mitford. Therefore, I hope that Duchess of Devonshire, Lady Deborah, could give me some valuable informations about her sister's days. If anyone could tell me the adress I could write to Lord Andrew (11. Duke of Devonshire)or Lady Deborah on, I would really appriciate that. Yours st.yvan@eunet.yu

The 11th Duke has just died, as noted in the article. john 21:24, 8 May 2004 (UTC)
"Irrelevancies"
[edit]- Mr Toad keeps removing the following info about the subject's father, who died "(while being attended by suspected serial killer John Bodkin Adams[1]),".
- He says it is "irrelevant". I would say it actually is of interest to the reader - but anyway, it is hardly less relevant than the fact that his granddaughter is a model, or half a dozen other facts we include. Furthermore, that someone's dad died in the presence of a man who went on to be involved in one of the most controversial legal cases in British history must have seemed of 'relevance' to the deceased's son.

Many things are "of interest to the reader", but at an encyclopaedia they should be discussed at the relevant article. If there is some suspicion that Adams killed the 10th Duke, as you seem to be suggesting (and I know nothing at all about that), then the place to discuss that is at Adams's article and at the 10th Duke's article. It can only be relevant to the 11th Duke's article if (a) it is suggested that the 11th Duke was involved in some way in the 10th Duke's death, or (b) if the 11th Duke has said or done something about it. If either of those things is the case, you need to say so and provide a citation. Otherwise the circumstances of the 10th Duke's death are not relevant to this article and I will continue to delete references to them. If you want to delete the reference to his granddaughter I have no objection, although it is fairly common to note in articles if any of the subject's descendants are of interest in their own right.

The Kennedy issue
[edit]The late Duke's sister-in-law was Kathleen Kennedy, sister of U.S. President John F. Kennedy and U.S. senators Robert F. Kennedy and Ted Kennedy. @JayBeeEll reverted the edit as "irrelevant trivia." The Duke's notability came largely from his status as a member the British aristocracy and to other important people. That makes his connections to other Kennedys significant. So the fact that his sister-in-law was the sister of U.S President is not trivia or irrelevant. Especially if you see that most articles about him do mention his connection to them as well. Unfriendnow (talk) 22:48, 8 May 2024 (UTC)
