[edit] Article title

Is there any special reason for why this page is called Nicodemus Tessin the Elder instead of Nicodemus Tessin Sr.? Täby Kommun calls him Nicodemus Tessin Sr. –panda 06:53, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

if you checked all the interwiki's you would have found out, that no one (except Täby kommun) uses "Sr.". The reason probably is, that he lived neither in a latin-language-area nor in the US, but in a anglo-saxon and middle-low-german language zone. But what differences does it make, what is your point?--Kresspahl 20:41, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

No special point ... just wondered about the Elder part and whether Nicodemus Tessin Sr. should be redirected to Nicodemus Tessin the Elder or vice versa. –panda 21:05, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
