[edit] Last Who's Who entry before death

I have reverted to "he named Miln as his partner" rather than "Miln was named as..." because it reflects the fact that that is what Sir Derek described Miln as. People who are in Who's Who write their own entries (following a given format). He didn't have to name a partner at all. Indeed, given that he was a fairly elderly clergyman, knight, and pillar of the Establishment, and given the negative press coverage Miln had recently received, it is perhaps surprising (and, I would say, much to his credit!) that Sir Derek chose to describe him as his partner.--Oxonian2006 22:49, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
