Semi-protected edit request on 30 April 2024

Change ‘committed suicide’ to ‘took her own life’ as per standard language for reporting on suicide which highlights that suicide is no longer considered a crime in the UK. 2A02:C7C:6B23:3000:98F:56FE:5579:3C9E (talk) 09:06, 30 April 2024 (UTC)

 Done Now changed to "died by suicide", which is consistent with the wording at the target article Suicide of Jacintha Saldanha. Martinevans123 (talk) 09:18, 30 April 2024 (UTC)

Should we primarily refer to the Princess of Wales as "Kate" or "Catherine" in this article?

It's Catherine and has been discussed multiple times before.

I think we should call her the former (Kate) because WP:COMMONNAME Coddlebean (talk) 13:42, 30 April 2024 (UTC)

Have you seen Talk:Catherine, Princess of Wales/Archive 10#Missing information on "Kate" name and Talk:Catherine, Princess of Wales/Archive 9#The name 'Kate Middleton' in the first sentence.? Thanks. Martinevans123 (talk) 13:56, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
