Per Forum:Relaxing T:HONOUR, I believe this should be moved to Mister Crofton. Throughout the stories, he is always referred to with "Mister" as part of his name; the only exception is when a character is being intentionally disrespectful, and when this happens, more often than not they are corrected afterwards. As in this clip from The Doomsday Manuscript:
- 'The anaesthetic in the bandage should sort that out.' Ms Jones was jabbing at a keypad in front of her screen. 'I should have known that Wall would be at the bottom of this. Him or Crofton.'
- 'Mister Crofton,' Benny murmured. But she was ignored.
(The above is the only time "Crofton" is used in the story without being preceded by the word "Mister".)
Just as in the cases of Mr Smith and Mr. Bean, the Doc Holliday precedent applies here, and "Mister" should be added to the page title. – n8 (☎) 16:46, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
- I agree, I think the page should be moved to Mister Crofton, it is much more accurate to all of his appearances, and having him as only Crofton is just rather odd to me. Liria10 ☎ 16:49, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
