Hi Emperor's New Spy, a question about Edits No.2-8 of suspected sock TenMuses below, why in these edits below was this "controversial" and what was the eventual result of this controversial method? |
|||
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Arthur_Valerian_Wellesley%2C_8th_Duke_of_Wellington&diff=528020371&oldid=526029192 The Emperor's New Spy revert "(controversial categorizing method not helpful and rejected when Kauffner tried imposing them on categorization of US presidents)"] |

* [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Arthur_Valerian_Wellesley,_8th_Duke_of_Wellington&diff=prev&oldid=547445249 TenMuses key linking various Dukes of Wellington], |

* You [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Arthur_Valerian_Wellesley%2C_8th_Duke_of_Wellington&diff=558061027&oldid=547445249 reverted TenMuses here] |
|||
and same on all 7 articles [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Henry_Wellesley%2C_3rd_Duke_of_Wellington&diff=547445819&oldid=528020491 etc] |
|||
Can you give a link to where such keylinks to presidents etc were discussed? Many thanks. [[User:In ictu oculi|In ictu oculi]] ([[User talk:In ictu oculi|talk]]) 22:50, 3 June 2013 (UTC) |

:No discussion exist. I only reverted it because similar "key linking" with numbers were rejected on the pages of the US presidents. Assigning number to categories so each page can appear in chronological order seems ridiculous and the result looks terrible with different parts for 1, 2, 3, etc. Usually the page of the title are listed and there the reader can find the chronological order of the title holders. If this type of categorization is rejected by the US presidents' articles which are some of the most patrolled articles on Wikipedia, why should the duke of Wellington used this unuseful form of categorizing. See [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=James_K._Polk&diff=433603938&oldid=433541060] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=James_Buchanan&diff=433603811&oldid=433541533].--[[User:The Emperor's New Spy|The Emperor's New Spy]] ([[User talk:The Emperor's New Spy#top|talk]]) 23:45, 3 June 2013 (UTC) |

::Hi. Thank you [[User:Favonian]]'s edit summary in your James K. Polk and James Buchanan links clearly references consensus discussion on presidents, I will look to see where that is. BTW these edits have not been specifically cited yet on [[Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Kauffner]].

Revision as of 00:27, 4 June 2013
Portuguese translationI did some minor work on the article, but I don't think I'll be translating everything so soon, I already have a to-do list at this Wikipedia and at the Portuguese one, and specially because history and princes' biographies aren't really my fields of interest. Try adding a request to WikiProject Brazil's talk page to get more editors' attention, if many people work together, this page will be complete really soon. Victão Lopes I hear you... 01:03, 3 December 2012 (UTC) "Move to Archduke Johann Salvator of Austria"
Hi there. Are you saying "Archduke Johann Salvator of Austria (Johann Orth) → Archduke Johann Salvator of Austria" isn't what you were proposing (and what people appeared to support)..? CsDix (talk) 16:09, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
danish articlesthere is no reason to impoverish articles because it does not suit you personally, wikipedia is a public organization where all help is welcome as well as additional info included by other users since it is apparently well done it is ok, thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hanskirkegaard (talk • contribs) 02:07, 12 December 2012 (UTC) RMHello, I recently started a Requested move here, maybe you're interested. Moagim (talk) 13:34, 14 December 2012 (UTC) British dukedomsThe British dukes have categorized numerically for a long time now.[1] There must be hundreds of articles involved. I don't see any benefit to removing the category values, although you are of course free to do so. I had nothing to do with creating them, so I would appreciate it if you kept my name out of the edit summaries.[2] Kauffner (talk) 15:58, 14 December 2012 (UTC) I added the boxes for the Dukes of Brittany template for the Viking Occupation and for the Breton War of Succession. You decided to add back Gourmaelon. Can you provide a reliable source for this entry ? Did he actually exist ? In addition the template now lists two Alan III's . The second one is a well documented figure. Does the first one exist? was he really Alan "III" or was he some other ALAIN or something similar? If we can establish their real existence with your help I will take the step of creating a wiki article on each one so that we have consistency across the now widening Duchy of Brittany project. Thanks. (writing from a guest computer, this is Breizhtalk) 71.167.64.218 (talk) 19:20, 15 February 2013
ChimayI have an outstanding question at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Royalty_and_Nobility#Marie_Joseph_Anatole_Elie which I believe is misnamed. No one has responded, would you mind taking a quick look? It seems it is actually Joseph de Caraman-Chimay the younger. If you don't have time, no worries, thanks. In ictu oculi (talk) 17:14, 14 December 2012 (UTC) Friedrich von HohenzollernI'll add Friedrich X., XI., and XII. von Hohenzollern to the front of my to-do list, followed by Erbprinz. HansM (talk) 23:54, 14 January 2013 (UTC) Joan of SavoyStrong objection to your undo of the edit to Joan of Savoy's history. It is not for you to determine whether she was Countess in "any shape or form" In fact the need for a formal renunciation and the resulting settlement indicates her suo jure rights. These are a matter of received history. I will undo your edit if you choose not to. This approaches vandalism !!!71.167.64.218 (talk) 23:24, 18 February 2013 (UTC) John III, Duke of BrittanySecond strong objection to your undo of the Succession box entry. This is the second time your intervention is unwelcome today. This edit of the Succession Box is substantively meaningful. The title and regnal rights of the Duke of Brittany are separate from that of the Earl of Richmond. That is why the edit is a refinement. Please undo your undo of my work or I shall have to do it. Rather than appearing to aggressively act on others' work since Wikipedia is meant to be collaborative you could suggest a discussion on the article's TALK page. In addition, it is important when claiming as you did that the disputation was actually already indicated to appreciate the actual historical point needing to be made....in this case the separateness of the Ducal title and regnal rights from that of the Earldom. Please revert your change. Please feel free to join in a more collaborative dialogue in the TALK page of the article. 71.167.64.218 (talk) 23:31, 18 February 2013 (UTC) Norwegian kingsHi again, I first want to note that you might want to check out my most recent (short) article about Eystein I of Norway, which I have nominated for GA review. The main issue I want to bring up, is however the stagnated work on the List of Norwegian monarchs. I stopped editing the list in part because I found it hard (and useless) to source certain information, especially regarding the inclusion of marriages and "legitimate" issue (which is hardly a relevant factor for most of the early monarchs), and because of a general disillusionment with the format used for the list. Since you have probably been the most important other editor involved, here's a suggestion for a new format for the list that I have made, based largely on other FA monarch lists. I feel that this format is more "timeless" and appropriate for use on the historically greatly varying circumstances around the kings, while also aesthetically better and simpler to read/find the information desired. If you are onboard with this (the details can be discussed), I'm considering to retry improving the list, potentially making it into a GA (or even FA). Below is the format as applied to the original Fairhair kings and the modern independent kings. Thhist (talk) 13:42, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
Portuguese monarchsTo say the least, I'm quite frustrated with how things are done at those articles. Particularly the approval of pipelinking [English name|Portuguese name] (links to John VI of Portugal) & yet opposing pipelinking [Portuguese name|English name] (links to Peter V of Portugal), for example. Very frustrated, indeed. GoodDay (talk) 03:12, 11 April 2013 (UTC)
Re:Georgian namesGeorgian women are commonly referred by their first and last names. Their last names sometimes change on marriage, sometimes stay the same, or both are combined. As for the royalty, it is quite common in Georgian sources to refer to the consorts by their maiden names; from what I can see that's quite in line with Wiki guidelines.--KoberTalk 18:13, 13 April 2013 (UTC) Talkback![]() You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.

Pierre, Duke of PenthièvreHello, I've started working on a userspace draft translation of the French article on Pierre d'Orléans. It might take me a little while to complete the translation. Please inform Hylian Auree (talk) and Kudpung (talk), a busy admin, that you found someone else to do the translation so you don't have several people independently working on the same translation. (Also, I'm a translator of French — my German is rather bad.) Before I procede much further on the translation, please answer why you're interested in this member of France's historical royalty? Thanks! - tucoxn\talk 21:42, 21 April 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for May 22Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Beatrice of Portugal, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Castile (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
