What is the correct spelling: Gustav (name of the image) or Gustaf (name of the article)? 82.83.37.204 15:06, 30 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Gustaf is the correct spelling. The one initially used derived from the spelling used in Encyclopaedia Britannica (1911). See "Svenskt biografiskt handlexikon" (1906) [1] -- Mic 21:29, Mar 30, 2004 (UTC)
Thanks for noticing, btw. The move to correct naming found a match in the list of Governors for Södermanland, and necessitated a disambiguation for the Governors of Östergötland. That in turn highlited the fact that Gustaf Horn inherited the title of Baron (Friherre), from his father. A comital title was not confered until 1695. -- Mic 21:53, Mar 30, 2004 (UTC)
