Regarding the infobox's name parameter, which is "Earldom of Spencer", that should remain as it is. Although the noble title is "Earl Spencer" (and not "Earl of Spencer"), the earldom itself is best described as the "Earldom of Spencer". This description is supported by reliable historic sources, including Burke's General and Heraldic Dictionary of the Peerage and Baronetage of the British Empire (1833) at p. 466 (see here, which refers to the "Earldom of Spencer" halfway through the Lineage section). -- Blairall (talk) 22:10, 21 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
