Talk:Vladislaus II of Hungary

Untitled

This article states in the end that his daughter by Anne de Foix, Anne born 1503 married by Imperial Marriage Contract, Ferdinand of Austria. This hyperlink goes to Ferdinand of Austria Born 1793, 290 "Years" after her?

see Technical Writing-Fourth edition by Shanron J. Gerson and Steven M Gerson>R.M.

It was wrongly linked, both Ferdinand and Maximilian. I've updated the links now, thanks for the note. --Joy [shallot] 13:58, 5 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Disambiguation note

I would like to add the following towards the bottom of the article, to help address some confusion about the name. Is this acceptable? --Elonka 00:31, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

== Alternative name spellings ==
He is sometimes referred to as:
* Wladyslaw II Jagiellon
* Vladislas II of Hungary and Bohemia

It is also worth noting that there is also occasional confusion 
between Vladislaus II and [[Wladyslaw II Jagiello]].  They were both
members of the [[Jagiellon dynasty]], but in different generations,
and ruled over different geographic locations.

Coronation date vs. Wedding date

Do the coronation date and the wedding/marriage date occur on the same day with European aristocracy? I ask because I am adding the coronation date for his 3rd marriage but I don't know offhand if that corresponds to the wedding date. Since I know the date of her coronation, I would prefer to write it as their marriage date, but I don't know how aristocratic traditions work in this period or for that matter most any other period. Does anyone know? Can you please provide an answer to this question? Thank you... Steve Stevenmitchell (talk) 11:29, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

Merger of two articles

The content of the two articles has now been merged under Vladislaus II of Bohemia and Hungary.--Felix Folio Secundus (talk) 16:05, 28 August 2011 (UTC)

Requested move

Vladislaus II of Bohemia and Hungary → Vladislaus II of Hungary Per WP:NCROY: "Where a monarch has reigned over a number of states, use the most commonly associated ordinal and state. For example, Charles II of England, not Charles II of England, Scotland and Ireland." The article was moved in 2009 from Vladislaus II of Hungary to Vladislaus II of Bohemia and Hungary with an edit summary describing it as "egnlish name". That being nonsense, the article should be moved back. Titles of articles about other Hungarian and Bohemian monarchs mention only one state, including the article about his son, Louis II of Hungary.

• Comment I can say that he is known in the Czech lands as Vladislaus Jagiello (Vladislav Jagellonský) or Vladislaus II Jagiello, not Vladislaus II of Bohemia and/or Hungary. --Vejvančický (talk / contribs) 15:10, 5 December 2013 (UTC)
• I would support move to Vladislaus II Jagiello as it is the most preferred form of his name also according to Google Books. --Vejvančický (talk / contribs) 15:14, 5 December 2013 (UTC)
  • "Vladislaus II Jagiello" refers exclusively to his grandfather, Vladislaus II of Poland; the Google Books search easily confirms it. Furthermore, such title would make the article inconsistent with that about his son and successor, Louis II of Hungary. Surtsicna (talk) 17:34, 5 December 2013 (UTC)
    • Oy, my mistake. I didn't check properly. --Vejvančický (talk / contribs) 17:40, 5 December 2013 (UTC)
• Comment: Was Vladislaus II more notable in Hungary, than Bohemia? --Norden1990 (talk) 20:29, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
  • The Hungarian kingdom was larger and more powerful, thus making its crown more important, so to speak. He resided mainly in Hungary, and died there. He was also buried among the Hungarian kings. Surtsicna (talk) 21:08, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
• Support per Surtsicna's argument. --Norden1990 (talk) 00:42, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
• Oppose - he was king of Bohemia for 45 years, and king of Hungary for only 26 years; 79.117.175.84 (talk) 13:41, 19 December 2013 (UTC)
