[edit] Re: Viscount Severn
Hiya. Well, Louise and Severn's names and styles are quite controversial. They are both styled as non-royal children of a non-royal earl, despite being, by 1917 Letters Patent Prince(ss). However, there is an issue as to the legal effects of the announcement the Queen made – some consider that, because the Queen's word is law in these matters, the announcement can legally deny the pair of their princely styles, whereas others say that the announcement has no effect in law. Now, Lady Louise is styled Windsor, and I daresay Lord Severn will be too, even if their surnames are legally Mountbatten-Windsor (that is, if they are not legally princely). If they are legally princely, they have no surname. Either way, they're styled as Windsor, so we use that as the best compromise † DBD 22:08, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] RE: Kings of Jerusalem
Sorry I wasn't aware, it just seemed strange that somebody who is claiming such an important title wouldn't have a Wikipedia article and the family page didn't seem too remarkable (compared to Bourbon or Bonapartists)... but the von Urach link makes things more clear. Perhaps you could create an article for him, explaining the ins and outs of his claim and family conections? Thanks. - Gennarous (talk) 03:01, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
- Thank You for Your confidence! ;-)
But there are an article about von Urach family. --Worobiew (talk) 10:59, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] *
Why are you indexing articles under *? If I wanted to know about Halton House, surely the first place I would look is under H for Halton? -- Roleplayer (talk) 22:10, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
- If you wanted to know about Halton House, please look under H for Halton. But in Category:Rothschild family under H would be only people – Rothschild family members, wouldn't it? -- Worobiew (talk) 22:23, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
- It's just unusual to group so many articles under * at the start. Normally only one or two are indexed in this way. -- Roleplayer (talk) 22:30, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Pistolkors
To be honest, I'm not sure what the most proper spelling of this family name would be. I used Pistolkors when I wrote the articles I wrote because that was how it was spelled in a couple of the books I had. I wouldn't have a major problem with changing the spelling to include the "h" if you think it's more widely used. --Bookworm857158367 (talk) 00:03, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
