[edit] Untitled

Can somebody update the "alleged" event in 2003? RickK | Talk 20:37, 28 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Meh, Jiang took care of it =P. ugen64 01:12, Jun 18, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Top line

I agree with the removal of bold type, but the presence of two sets of brackets next to eachother is grammatically incorrect - separation with a semicolon doesn't lead to a dubious phrase - if we were to mean "born Eugenie Victoria..." that's what we'd write - "born Eugenie... Mountbatten-Windsor, 23 March..." -- DBD 12:35, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pic?

Yes, pic plz! 85.227.226.168 17:01, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Princess gone wild and busted

should have this part, at least it did happen.Derekjoe (talk) 02:52, 15 June 2008 (UTC)Derekjoe

She - reputedly - got drunk and swam in the ocean. Oh my god, shocking. Someone tell me that not all of Britain is this prudish. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.166.187.131 (talk) 08:23, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Royal Standard

She is 18, why does she not have a royal standard yet or arms? Her sister has them does she? Holtville (talk) 04:14, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

Answered at the Wikiproject British Royalty page. But two things:
  1. This really isn't what WP is for; talk pages are for hashing out what to include and how to write articles, not for answering trivia questions.
  2. You could have waited more than 20 minutes before posting over there. Your phrasing of the question over there made it seem like you'd been waiting for months for an answer, and was somewhat demanding. Prince of Canada t | c 02:33, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Eugenie's arms

Eugenie has been granted arms as described in the article. The person who did the images for the arms of several royals is no longer active. If I knew how to do this stuff, I would, but I don't. I can be a little helpful: the image could be based on Beatrice's, here, but with the bees replaced by the thistles, of which there are some here. -Rrius (talk) 07:46, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

I'll see what I can do.. Prince of Canada t | c 07:57, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
Well.. I made the file, but can't seem to upload... wtf. Prince of Canada t | c 08:36, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Position in Line of Succession

This will start changing sooner or later. Isn't it better to include a link to the official web page of the British Monarchy than having to correct the position all the time? http://www.royal.gov.uk/ThecurrentRoyalFamily/Successionandprecedence/Succession/Overview.aspx Q43 (talk) 02:35, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

[edit] 'Graduation'

This article makes reference to Eugenie's 'graduation.' She hasn't finished a degree yet, thus she hasn't graduated. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.96.244.134 (talk) 03:05, 7 April 2010 (UTC)

I would hazard a guess and say it was written by an American who doesn't realize that you don't 'graduate' (in any meaningful sense given you can leave school with or without a series of qualifications) from secondary school in the UK and most Commonwealth countries. It's simply sloppy writing, but does sound better than "finished" however.  :) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.54.55.62 (talk) 23:08, 29 April 2011 (UTC)

No, a sloppy American wouldn't even bother with this nonsense. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.111.94.244 (talk) 21:49, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

[edit] House of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg

References to the House of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg are being added to multiple articles related to the Royal Family of the Commonwealth realms, and yet, not one reliable source has been provided. I yesterday began a discussion about this at Talk:House of Windsor#House of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg. Input there by interested parties would be appreciated. --Ħ MIESIANIACAL 13:27, 15 February 2011 (UTC)
