[edit] Move
As she was a Queen Consort, shouldn't it be Charlotte, Princess Royal or Charlotte of Great Britain, Princess Royal to follow the NC, Victoria, Princess Royal and Empress Frederick is a perfect example. Prsgoddess187 16:32, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

- Support. Wiki naming conventions for royals and nobility get to be insane: I'm all for paring down and simplifying, particularly when the conventions themselves call for it. QuartierLatin1968 18:35, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The picture is wrong
The picture of the article shows Charlotte, Princess of Wales, niece of Princess Royal Charlotte!
[edit] The new picture.
Indeed, it was the wrong picture.
Excuse my presumption, but since I had the book, a scanner, and a little time? I edited in one that is, most definitely, of Charlotte, Princess Royal. (Painted before her marriage).
I could use some advice on the copyright issues and how it's done through Wiki. But this scan, which I took from Flora Fraser's book on the daughters of George III. In the details of the image, I included the name of the artist, in what collection the picture is located, correct title, blah blah.
But yes!
I'm satisfied. :-) I have others from when she was married, but this one shows her in her status as Princess Royal, so I think it suits. She looks a lot like her father in this picture.
This image is fine, but Flora Fraser's book also has a more flattering picture of a younger Royal-- the painting of her and her two sisters Augusta and Elizabeth by Gainsborough, commissioned by her brother George, Prince of Wales. Might a crop from this painting be a better image for the article, or could the whole painting it be included somewhere?18.173.1.125 (talk) 19:31, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
