Wrong link in infobox

In the infobox top right of the page, the word Sir links to knight bachelor, which, by that page's definition is incorrect since he has the OBE.

From the knight bachelor page:

The title of Knight Bachelor is the basic rank granted to a man who has been knighted by the monarch but not inducted as a member of one of the organised orders of chivalry; it is a part of the British honours system.

The link should be to Sir since he is not a knight bachelor. Also, the OBE link below it should link to the top of that article, not a subheading. 2607:FEA8:E983:F200:7AD2:2EFD:99C5:5760 (talk) 17:35, 3 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've changed the honorary prefix to Sir. But, as in the first sentence of the text, the automatic redirect for "OBE" when used as an honorary suffix, links to the section, so you'd need to raise that at Talk:Order of the British Empire.
