Talk:Margaret of Burgundy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The incoming links to this page all appear to refer to Margaret of York, the duchess of Charles the Rash. This primary usage should be reconized, by moving this page to Margaret of Burgundy (disambiguation) and a dab header at Margaret of York (or by moving that article here, but that's a separate campaign against doctrinaire usage.)

I totally disagree. Margaret of Burgundy should be disambig page, or redirected to such. I understand that the reason why English use the name primarily for Margaret of York is because she was from England. Thus many English have "reserved" the name for her, and not followed to more objective scholarly usage where Burgundy's all Margarets are such and Margaret of York is correctly referred with her pre-marital territorial designation. In my opinion, this resembles closely to the case of William of Orange and its result should be followed here. It is not en-Wikipedia's role to enforce so-called Anglocentric view. The incoming links should be corrected at their sources, not by using this location wrongly. Shilkanni 18:27, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
