Question about style

[edit]

Should the lead of the page say "The Right Excellent Robyn Rihanna Fenty"? I don't know what the typical rules for styles of address like this are. I do know that the David Attenborough page uses his title of "Sir", so should we follow that example? Di (they-them) (talk) 02:02, 22 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Good luck! I can't get a certain editor to retain the NH postnomial that is standard for National Hero awardees. Huntington (talk) 20:58, 26 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
MOS:POSTNOM: When the subject of an article has received honours or appointments issued either by the subject's state of citizenship or residence, or by a widely recognized organization that reliable sources regularly associate with the subject, post-nominal letters may be included in any part of the article other than the lead sentence.
All this information is in the infobox and mentioned elsewhere in the article. For the other one, see WP:SIR. RachelTensions (talk) 22:23, 26 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

When discussing Rihanna's Super Bowl LVII viewership, it should be revised to note that it was the most-watched halftime show at the time, since surpassed by Kendrick Lamar:

however the figure was later revised by Nielsen Media Research, who adjusted the number to 121.017 million viewers, making it the most-watched halftime show in history, Doomsdayblaze (talk) 05:18, 6 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Reductions

[edit]

Hi, just to let everyone know I've performed a significant copyedit on the article. The article was previously over 10,000 words (WP:TOOBIG) and had repeated statements throughout the article (such as her films being mentioned more than twice as well as her 2009 domestic violence case). The "life and career" section is in a significantly much better state now, and I plan to do more copyedits, so if anyone has questions or concerns feel free to ask :). 750h+ 08:19, 18 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
