I understand that Fr. Knox had a very strong sense of humor. This is alluded to in the article but mightn't it be a good idea to spell this out some more? --Wspencer11 (talk to me...) 18:24, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Ronald Knox's 10 Commandments of Detective Fiction

If no-one has any objections I may add it. 124.243.161.71 06:36, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] When was his title bestowed?
