Talk:Duchy of Styria

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The format "area (name)" is unusual, I am asking for this to be moved in order to reflect the format as given in Duchy of Cornwall, Duchy of Lancaster or Duchy of Modena and Reggio for example. Gryffindor 22:55, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

There's no real reason for it, just historical accident really...there is also Carinthia (duchy), which should also be moved, but since it was moved and moved back at one point about a year ago, I suspect there might be some opposition to doing it again (as there may be here, I guess I'll found out...)

One can easily mis-understand that Styria is a German Bundesland, which it is not.

IMHO it would be helpful in the first paragraph to say how to find it on a map, in general terms, ie somehting like "loacated in modern-day southern Austria and eastern Slovenia" Fat Red 20:40, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

I have changed the entry a little bit in order to address these valid concerns, I hope it helped. Gryffindor 22:55, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

Thanks, that's exactly what I meant.Fat Red 01:51, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

I have also modified the entry of Duchy of Carinthia as well, if it still sounds to confusing, let me know or you can also modify it further. Gryffindor 08:19, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
