Henry V, (August 9?September 16, 1387 - August 31, 1422)

What does the "?" mean? I daren't remove it in case it's historical! -- Tarquin 22:20 13 Jun 2003 (UTC)

"Initial text adapted from a 1911 Encyclopaedia Britannica article"

I thought the idea was not to copy other encyclopedias in wiki!

Why the heck is Henry V referred to as "Hal" in this article?-----hal is his childhood/teenage affectionate nickname User:Skyshadow

Blame Shakespeare. —Anville 20:49, 4 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Does anyone know the context of Clarence in this article? I went to disambig it, thinking it meant Clarence, England - but it looks like it is referring to a person?? --Chuq 02:12, 22 Apr 2004 (UTC)

It's Henry's brother, the Duke of Clarence. See 1421. I've corrected the link. Eugene van der Pijll 08:03, 22 Apr 2004 (UTC)

I notice this article only contains one fleeting reference to Shakespeare and even then it doesn't really say that he wrote a very famous play based on Henry V's life. Perhaps the play and the notable cinematic versions of said play should be mentioned somewhere as they are, in a way, part of Henry's lasting influence. --Lairor 05:09, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)

does anyone else think this suffers from POV problems a little bit? if its just me i'll shut up--Alhutch 23:33, 30 September 2005 (UTC)

It's not just you. The original source was the Encyclopedia Britannica, not the "Encyclopedia Gallia," which would have had a somewhat different POV. Bigturtle

[edit] "Final words and legacy"

The vast majority of this section is in quotation marks, but no source is given. Is it the Encyclopaedia Britannica, or something else? - dharmabum (talk) 09:34, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

I can't find an actual quote of his last words in this article. Am I just missing them? McGehee 01:38, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Miracles of Henry V

I remember years ago being told by a priest that some miracles of Henry V had been recognised by the Vatican and that his beatification had started. Can anyone shed any light on this?

Wow. I hope that's true, because then he might be the first English King to be made a saint since St Edward the Confessor.

[edit] Burial Place of Henry V

Does anyone know where he is buried? Is his wife Catherine of Valois buried with him?
