Name[edit]

Dukes or Princes? This article pl wiki version is at pl:Książęta I Rzeczypospolitej. There is also a related article Princely Houses of Poland (pl:Polskie rody książęce) and pl wiki has a merge proposal for them, which I find very sensible. The only question is merge which one where, and whether to rename anything. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 05:38, 19 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Support to "Princely houses of Poland and Lithuania". Dukes are in most not hereditary titles in Poland, Princely titles are. Merging is good. Usage of "Duke" seems a bit strange. Duke of Dutchy more natural, or Duke before Jagiellon rule and during time of King Wladyslaw Jagiello (refer to Wojewoda). Example; Poniatowski is a Prince and not Duke, Wolczyn property (village) and not Dutchy. User:Camdan (talk) 14:41, 06 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Seems to be a consensus for the merger at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Poland#Talk:Dukes_of_Polish-Lithuanian_Commonwealth.23Name. I am also fine with Princely houses of Poland and Lithuania. Since I haven't annouced this at WT:LITHUANIA, User:Renata3, would it be fine with you? --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 02:30, 20 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds good. It would be great if someone could add refs and some background info (recognized as princely by who?). Renata (talk) 14:10, 21 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Merger complete. Klbrain (talk) 10:32, 16 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
