This succession table seems absurd. I'd suggest that all we really need is Duke of Anjou, King of Naples, and Count of Provence. john k 21:36, 9 July 2005 (UTC)
- I'd keep everything, but there's an obvious flaw as to Pont-à-Mousson. —Tamfang 06:25, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
- I do not see any strong reason for trimming the table. olivier 08:44, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] succession boxes
I've cleared out the rather dreadful succession boxes. For the most part, we don't include titles in pretence in succession boxes, so we shouldn't have things like "King of Aragon" there. john k (talk) 15:38, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Requested move

The result of the proposal was move to René of Anjou. JPG-GR (talk) 05:22, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
I am suggesting this move because (i) there is no René II of Naples, (ii) he only briefly held Naples, (iii) the literature does not usually call him "of Naples", but prefers "of Anjou" or "d'Anjou", even "of Provence" and "of Lorraine" are, I think, more common than "of Naples", (iv) he is very well-known as "King René" or "the Good King René" and slightly less well known as "René the Good". I request "René the Good" b/c it is clear to whom it refers, it is common (enough), and it is connected with his royal titles (he was le Bon Roi). Srnec (talk) 01:22, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
- René II is irrelevant; our standard is to ask whether the subject is called René I, and I don't think he is, so that leads to René of Naples.
- However, usage would be René of Anjou, and I'm not sure English needs the acute accent. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 05:36, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
- GoogleBooks seems to show that even in English the acute accent is at least as common, quite possible more common than otherwise. Srnec (talk) 02:24, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
- Agree with René of Anjou, with or without accent. Johnbod (talk) 16:51, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
