Talk:Dietrich von Altenburg
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Move
This article should be moved to Dietrich of Altenburg. It is common in English to translate the names of nobility, especially when concerning German names. Hence it's William II instead of Wilhelm II and Albert Frederick, Duke of Prussia instead of Herzog Albrecht Friedrich von Preußen. The preposition "von" can easily be translated with the English "of" as these are (or originally were) titles, not surnames. Rex 15:48, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
