[edit] Albert, Prince of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha

• Delete this article is full of lies. basically some vanity trying to style himself like Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, please see relevant discussion on Talk:Albert, Prince of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha Stancel 22:51, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete - patent bullsh*t - and not even very clever --Doc Glasgow 23:29, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
  • btw when you kill off Albert,please also execute his brother Douglas, Prince of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha--Doc Glasgow 23:42, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect both to their proper articles. With honorifics, one never knows how a user is going to search or an author phrase it in a link text. If those redirects are ever turned back into this BS, we can protect them after reversion. Geogre 02:04, 20 May 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect to Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha. And just delete Douglas, Prince of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha. --Angr/_comhrá 06:58, 20 May 2005 (UTC)
• Crap, but will probably be rescued by the fact that it is palpable petit treason, and therefore very much to the republican taste of much of the globe. Has no in-links, and its out-link to Prince Edward is a falsity. But I suspect it will still be here when next I look --Cynical Cursitor 07:12, 20 May 2005 (UTC)
• BTW, Douglas appears (at this daydatetime) an empty shell. Perhaps he's emigrated, anticipating a cull, and planning to return later --Simon Cursitor 07:14, 20 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete both - Looks like yet another dubious would-be-pretenders with the usual proliferation of dubious titles. - Skysmith 08:07, 20 May 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect to Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha which is the primary name of the article on Queen Victoria's husband. PatGallacher 11:04, 2005 May 20 (UTC)
• Delete gibberish but keep as a potentially useful (and in any event, harmless) redirect to the real article. 23skidoo 13:08, 20 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete This is palpably false. This article could be replaced with a redirect to the real Prince Albert. There is no such replacement for Douglas, though. Delete him, too. AlexTiefling 14:23, 20 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete patent nonsense. Redirect perfectly good title to Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha. -Willmcw 16:02, May 20, 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect to Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha. Even if this article were true, this person would not be notable. Wikipedia is not the Almanach de Gotha. Martg76 17:01, 20 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, then recreate as a redirect. Non-standard, but useful. James F. (talk) 20:47, 25 May 2005 (UTC)
