Where are the sources

This article needs some serious work. There is no contextual information about this person, there are no sources of any kind listed, and it reads more like a soap opera than history. I will make some improvements.

I take this back. I found no clear source on the Internet that such a person existed, or at least, who he was:

http://www.hdpz.htnet.hr/broj194/dan_mijatovic.htm Says: Nikola IV., dalmatinsko-hrvatski ban 1426. – 1432., sin kneza Nikole V., kao jedini muški potomak... This says that Nikola's only male heir was Nikola V.

http://hr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Popis_hrvatskih_banova List of Croatian Bans has: Ivan i Stjepan Frankopan 1434. - 1436. This mentions two bans, John and Stephen.

This is an interesting original source by "Prince Ivan" of a quit-claim: http://www.croatianhistory.net/etf/franki.html

I will leave this problem for someone more expert than me.

Merge proposal

There's a 2018 merge template up on the pages, which I had closed some months ago on the grounds that there was no case made; Akeosnhaoe has reversed the merge, suggesting in an edit summary that these are the same person. ~~I still oppose the proposal, on the grounds that there is no evidence linking the two names, and the history/description looks rather different.~~ Is there any evidence that these are the same person? For example, sources giving these names as synonyms? Klbrain (talk) 11:02, 22 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The one source on this page is called "Count Ivan Anž Frankopan, the Royal Steward of the Estate in Sweden 1426 - 1434". It also says "Ivan Anž VI Frankopan was the son of Nicola IV". Akeosnhaoe (talk) 12:44, 22 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Good points; withdrawing objection; happy for the merge to proceed. Klbrain (talk) 10:43, 23 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Merger complete. Klbrain (talk) 14:41, 23 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

"Frankopian"

I don't see any evidence indicating that "Frankopian" is a valid alternative spelling for Frankopan. The lead sentence of Frankopan family doesn't list it among the other-language alternatives, and Search only finds the spelling in one other article, Eric of Pomerania. I'm assuming it's a misspelling. – wbm1058 (talk) 16:02, 23 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, my – look what I found when I went to create a redirect at Ivan Anz Frankopan: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ivan Anz Frankopan – wbm1058 (talk) 16:25, 23 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
