CZ naming conventions

Hi, John, glad to see you being as industrious as 7 or 8 bees!

We do argue about this from time to time, but there is a general consensus (also spelled out somewhere in the guidelines) that for a name like this it is written, particularly in the article's title Initial dot no-space second initial dot space Last Name. Take a look, for instance, at P.G. Wodehouse, a fine Brit! (There are other examples, but I'll have to track them down if you want me to.) Hayford Peirce 03:39, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
