According to Corpora, there are certain ranks and titles authorized for use, 
and the supervision of them is the purview of the College of Arms.  The URL 
in question is their current list of alternative titles approved for use in 
the SCA.  (Right or wrong, like it or not, that's the list.  If you feel it 
needs corrections, changes or additions, the College is the place to take 
your concerns.)

(Disclaimer- I am in no way affiliated with the College of Arms (ask anyone 
who knows me); just have a good grasp of how things are set up.)
