Talk:James V of Scotland
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Was he an immature, erratic and exceptionally violent person? He definitely had disturbed teenage years, perhaps (almost) psychotic?
What about "subdueing the border rebels"; is this the same as summarily executing people without trial?
anyone object me adding the that he was fond of dressing as a commoner and going out conversing with commoners without revealing his identity apart from one occasion, I dont have the source handy but Im trying to find it. If/when I do, anyone have any objections to this info being in the article?
I think it would be best to find a definite source first, as this is a common myth told about kings (though, of course, some probably actually did so). Perhaps add it to the "References" at the end. --Tisco 14:03, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
The 'king as commoner' story is based on legend, and best highlighted as such. Rcpaterson 19:30, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Solway Moss
I've made a small change here, because the way it was written implied that James was personally present at the battle. Rcpaterson 19:24, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
