Is he consistantly called "Richard Threlkeld Cox"? We tend not to include middle names in article titles unless it's the name the person is normally known by. -- Zoe

No. He's called "Richard Cox" or sometimes "Richard T. Cox", but I think the person who moved the article to "Richard Threlkeld Cox" said "Richard Cox" is "a disambiguation waiting to happen". "Richard" and "Cox" are commonplace names and it's not hard to imagine that "Richard Cox"s will become subjects of Wikipedia articles. -- Mike Hardy

"Richard Cox" is also a juvenile vandalism waiting to happen. FWIW, there was a "Richard Threlkeld" who was a foreign correspondent for CBS. Ortolan88

So how about Richard L. Cox? -- Zoe
