[edit] Arpad is not a surname

The dinasty is name after Árpád, who conquered Hungary, but his name never became a surname. The title of the Article should be changed.

[edit] Pretender to the throne of Hungary

From Talk:Mary of Hungary#Requested move:

...It was specifically this Maria II's great-great-grandmother, Maria of Hungary, Queen Consort of Naples, who was the first Maria to claim to be Queen Regnant of Hungary, by laying her claim to the Hungarian throne, becoming crowned as its rightful queen regnant through papal sanction, was further recognized as rightful holder of the Hungarian kingship, and was later held by her descendants (such as this Maria II here) as having been legitimate queen of Hungary, Maria I. see for example these notes. (King Charles of Naples married at "Naples [May/Jun] 1270 Maria of Hungary, daughter of ISTVÁN V King of Hungary & Elisabeth of the Kumans. She claimed the throne of Hungary 21 Sep 1290, following the death of her brother King Laszlo IV. She was crowned Queen by a Papal legate in Naples 1291, but transferred her rights to her son Charles Martel. The Pope confirmed her sole rights in Hungary 30 Aug 1295".) It is not important that Maria I of Hungary highly probably never actually was able to rule Hungary, but remained a pretender, a claimant. .... Marrtel (talk) 10:27, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

If verifiable, this information should be included in this article, and possibly also mentioned in the Mary of Hungary article. Andrewa (talk) 16:57, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
