Reginald Vaughn Finley, Sr.
Your changes to Reginald Vaughn Finley, Sr. are being discussed at the talk page. Mr Stephen 10:26, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
- You're welcome. Mr Stephen 08:27, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
You added to this article: "If and when HRH Princess Margriet should somehow succeed to the throne, the list of succession will include all of her children and grandchildren now excluded." But her sons Pieter-Christiaan and Floris have still married without seeking the parliament's approval. So they and their children would still be excluded, right? Or is there a rule regarding this that I'm not aware of? Mtcv (talk) 18:12, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
I suppose they would still be excluded. There are no additional rules and the whole thing is basically unchartered territory. It is imaginable however that the above situation might include people that have never been in line to the throne and had no reason or indeed no possibility to seek parliaments approval on their marriage but suddenly find themselves in line to the throne because a grandparent succeeds to the throne. In that case I suppose there would be no reason to exclude them. Would their situation be so different from Floris an Pieter-Christiaan and their offspring? One could think it's an entirely new entitlement for them then. Gerard von Hebel (talk) 21:00, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
- OK, thanks for the clarification. I was wondering what point you were making and thought it might be some rule I hadn't heard of. So it isn't, and the point you're making is the three degrees of kinship rule, and its consequence for people who are currently excluded. I changed the article now, to include that rule more explicitly, and moved your addition down, to where it was already mentioned slightly.
- Regarding Floris and Pieter-Christiaan and their children, I don't agree that it's unchartered territory; the Dutch Constitution is clear in article 28.2, where it says that if a person who can inherit the throne (lit. "kingship"), marries without consent, is excluded. It doesn't say how or via whom this person can inherit the throne, so that's irrelevant for the exclusion. I do agree with you that for the children of Maurits and Bernhard, the situation is more complicated: they're not in the line of succession currently, but could theoretically be in the future, so does that mean they can inherit the throne or not? Luckily it doesn't matter for now, until Anastasia turns 18 in 10 years time. Mtcv (talk) 14:25, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
Hebel, an article I recently created, Princess Maria Adelgunde of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen, has been nominated for deletion here: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Princess Maria Adelgunde of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen. Given your attention to other Hohenzollern-related articles, please take the time to weigh in and stop its deletion.

Your recent edits
Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button
located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 16:53, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
I used the tildes but somehow it doesn't work right. I have now changed my preferences and unchecked a box that I think might be the problem there. See if it works. Gerard von Hebel (talk) 16:57, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
Aaaah apparently it does. Good then! Gerard von Hebel (talk) 16:57, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
Highfields, the two ministers plenipotentiary are not part of the Government of the Kingdom, only the Ministers appointed by the Crown are. The plenipotentiaries are a member of the Council of Ministers of the Kingdom but not of the Government of the Kingdom. That's the difference.Gerard von Hebel (talk) 16:52, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
- Indeed, thats what I originally thought, although I didn't know the details. But I trusted the explanation given to me by another editor. If you say your explanation is more accurate then I'm happy to accept that. Highfields (talk, contribs) 16:27, 6 November 2009 (UTC)

4RR on Killing of Travis Alexander
I understand you're trying to help arrest the changes of another editor who you probably feel is taking things too far (clearly they've exceeded 3RR), but you've also exceeded 3RR yourself on the article (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th). Best to stop making reverts immediately as the situation has already been reported to AN:EW. You may even want to consider self-reverting your last revert before it's too late, as any admin reviewing that case may decide to hand out multiple blocks.

Disambiguation link notification for May 1
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of heirs to the Dutch throne, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Prince Henry of the Netherlands (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Commonwealth realms
Per this edit, the monarchies do have shared elements--the line of succession (though actually a separate line in each country kept identical to all the others) and the person of the monarch. There is not one throne for all; that went out with the Statute of Westminster in 1931. --Ħ MIESIANIACAL 18:01, 24 July 2013 (UTC)
Thanks for sending me this message. I don't agree entirely. Although the monarch operates in sixteen different constitutional contexts, it is generally acknowledged that the monarchies of the CR's have a shared aspect as well. The Crown is shared AND separate in the CR's and the article about the Commonwealth Realms seems to imply that both aspects of this shared and separate Crown are taken into consideration. The Statute of Westminster speaks of "common allegiance to the Crown". And the royal title for all CR's is still the same (Queen of X and all other realms). I'm not saying that you're wrong necessarily, but I don't think I'm either. Gerard von Hebel (talk) 18:22, 24 July 2013 (UTC)

"Hungary pre 1849" section of Ausglech article
The text directly above: 'The status of Kingdom of Hungary before the revolution', and directly beneath it seems not to belong to the subject at hand and somewhat interpretative and contradicting itself. However autonomous Hungary may have been in this period, it was a country included in the 1804 creation and it was restored to that with the Constitution of 1849 (albeit with considerable less autonomy). If Hungary's inclusion was only formal, why is it suggested in other parts in the text that it wasn't included at all? Seems like an exercise in nationalist apologetics to me and I suggest it should go (or be heavily rewritten).Gerard von Hebel (talk) 18:57, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
Autonomous? Why? Has an autonomous territory own fully separated government? Own legislative body , parliament? Own idependent legal system without any common laws (which did not follow to the Roman law, nor Anglo-saxon type, but a third way? Has an autonomous territory own court system? Has an autonomous territory own customs borders and customs system which separated it from all other Habsburg dynastical territories? Has an autonomous territory to sign independently any international commercial/trade agreements with other states? Has an autonomous territory own army , and own separated right for the declaration of war (See Napoleonic wars, When Austrian Empire was in war with France since 1805, Kingdom of Hungary was in war only from 1809.)
Has an autonomous territory the own right to grant separated (non-Austrian) passport for its own people? Has an autonomous territory own separated budget, Hungary spent only 10% of its inland revenues for common dyplomatic and milatary actions? Have you ever read the
Yes, "The status of Kingdom of Hungary before the revolution" section is very necessary and important for many ignorant people, who do not know the details of legal reality, and the status of Hungarian state. Without this important information many readers will believe, that the Hungarians demanded extreme and weird right for themselves, and the "good" Austria made an unique exception with the "nationalist" Hungarians in 1867. In the reality, Hungary only reclaimed its former status and rigts from the Habsburgs, after the Austrians sufferend many defeats from the ITalians French and finally Prussian military powers. Austrian state came close to economic collapse too. Have you ever read the Personal union article|Prudoncty]] (talk) 11:24, 19 May 2015 (UTC)

Dutch Republic
According to the article Stadtholder, it counted as a crowned republic. ZFT (talk) 22:23, 16 July 2015 (UTC)
- Hello ZFT, I see. The article Crowned Republic seems to be about another concept however. Also remember there were large periods when there was no Stadtholder. I didn't like the term autocratic republic either so I removed the word altogether. Perhaps the word crowned can be put back in the infobox between brackets () without a link to that article.

Hi,
I added the mention of delegated officials because they were mentioned further down in the lead section, without explanation. For example, "In other nations, such as Australia, the governor-general merely signs the bill." This seemingly contradicts what is said earlier, that royal assent is given by the monarch, not a governor. Mentioning delegation simply resolves this apparent contradiction.

Question regarding names of politicians
Hello Hebel,
I noticed you're active in British related topics. Can you help me out here? I would like to know the names of three gentlemen who are found in a picture in this link: [2]. The picture is the one with the caption: "Opening of the Governing Council meeting Isola di San Lazzaro degli Armeni..." Now I believe one of them is Prince Charles Philippe, Duke of Anjou, the other is, as I assume, Charles Falconer, Baron Falconer of Thoroton, but the other one I don't know. Who and what is a "the Grand Master"? I'd really appreciate your help if possible. Thanks. P.S. Please ping me. Étienne Dolet (talk) 20:47, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
- Hello Étienne Dolet. I'm afraid I can't help you at this moment. I know the late Earl Ferrers had a function in the Orleans branch of that order, but it was not Chancellor and the person depicted on the photograph you mention is not him... I take it you are talking about the gentleman in the light brown jacket. Can't say who he is. When I find something I'll let you know. It's complicated because there have been some schisms and reunifications in that organization. Gerard von Hebel (talk) 15:10, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
Name of the Empire
I am quite curious why you've reverted my editing in the article of Austria-Hungary.
--Kronosz 284 (talk) 19:05, 27 October 2015 (UTC)
- Hello --Kronosz 284. I have reverted your edit because it seemed to me that the information you added may not have been derived from the source given. Also the words Empire or Biraldom may be problematic when it comes to describe the union between the two countries as it existed between 1867 and 1918. The Union between the two wasn't an Empire or a Kingdom. Austria was an Empire, while Hungary was a Kingdom. Gerard von Hebel (talk) 20:30, 28 October 2015 (UTC)
Dear Gerard von Hebel,
Unfortunately, I can only provide you a Hungarian source, a photo that was taken from a book called "A Kiegyezés Lexikon". It is a book, edited by András Cieger, which collects every single source about the Austro-Hungarian Compromise. And one of these sources is a letter written in the november of 1868 by the Emperor himself to Friedrich von Beust Foreign Minister. In the last sentence of it (which I am going to translate for you), Franz Joseph writes the following:
"Furthermore, I've decided, that for the designation of the sum of the kingdoms and countries contitutionally united under my reign, the phrases Osztrák-Magyar Monarchia (=Austro-Hungarian Monarchy) and Osztrák-Magyar Birodalom (=Austro-Hungarian Empire) shall be alternately used."
I can't upload the picture, but if you need it then please provide me an e-mail and I will send it to you.
--Kronosz 284 (talk) 15:10, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
- Hello Kronosz 284, sorry for the delay in replying. You do make a legitimate point. My problem with it is that sometimes the word "Empire" denotes a state which is ruled by a Emperor. which the real union created by the Austro-Hungarian compromise wasn't. I admit that Empire can also have an alternate meaning however. More akin to Realm or Imperium. Let's think about something that is not confusing in that sense. If we use the word Empire in the article as a translation of "Birodalom" it must be clear that we don't mean an Imperial state ruled by an Emperor. Francis Joseph was of course an Emperor, but just over Austria and not over Hungary, where he was a king. Please let me know your idea's. I'll think about it as well and will come back to you about this matter. Gerard von Hebel (talk) 16:57, 19 November 2015 (UTC)
- Hello Kronosz 284. For the time being I have restored your editions partially. The only difference being that I replaced the word "Empire" with "Realm". Also because the German translation is "Reich", which denotes a Realm rather than an Imperial state or "Kaiserreich". Gerard von Hebel (talk) 19:07, 20 November 2015 (UTC)
- Dear Gerard, now I see your point. In Hungarian, our word "Birodalom" unfortunatelly - in principle - has two meanings. One of them is the Realm, while the other one is Empire. We do have an other world for Empire thought, which is Császárság, but the usage of "Birodalom" and "Császárság", (if we are talking about an Empire) only differs because of tradition or even more, how it sounds better. The other problem is the "Realm-version". Yes, we should call Austria-Hungary, like Austro-Hungarian Realm, because the Hungarian word "Birodalom" in this case means Realm. But no-one does call it like that. I've never read it/heard it like that. But anyway, we have the same situation with the British Empire. There is monarch who is an Emperor and a King in the same time and his realm should be called British Realm, but we don't call it like that.
--Kronosz 284 (talk) 11:13, 21 November 2015 (UTC)
- Hello Kronosz 284, you're right about that. The difference between the words is there in German too, where it was used (Reich vs. Kaiserreich). Perhaps we could re add the word Empire with a short explanation. I'll think about the wording of that. Thanks for your comment!. I'll be back. Gerard von Hebel (talk) 18:05, 21 November 2015 (UTC)

- Please answer my questions, be more communicative.2A02:2430:3:2500:0:0:B807:3DA0 (talk) 03:48, 30 November 2015 (UTC)
- Hello 2A02:2430:3:2500:0:0:B807:3DA0, I'm not against you adapting articles in the name of the guidelines you mention, but it shouldn't be rigid. Some places are multilingual or bilingual. I agree we don't need etymologies for every ancient dialect in the leads to these articles, but there are sensitive cases, which require consensus. Klagenfurt, Strassbourg, Rijeka, and just about anything in Belgium. It's never a good idea to transport a guideline to an indiscriminate mass of articles. Gerard von Hebel (talk) 03:57, 30 November 2015 (UTC)
- Italians and Slovenes in Rijeka constitute below 2% each, see Demographics section, these languages are hardly part of the bilingualism in the city. As for Strassbourg and Klagenfurt - more likely to be true.2A02:2430:3:2500:0:0:B807:3DA0 (talk) 04:02, 30 November 2015 (UTC)
- Then I'll be happy to change my edit on Rijeka. I confused it with Rovinj / Rovigno I think.... Gerard von Hebel (talk) 04:05, 30 November 2015 (UTC)
Maria Pia and Braganza-Saxe-Coburg and Gotha royal family
In all English existing bibliography (see example: CHILCOTE, Ronald H.; The Portuguese Revolution: State and Class in the Transition to Democracy, that, in page 37, states: «Contending with Nuno was the Manuelist claimant, Princess Maria Pia of Saxe-Coburg, duchess of Braganza, and independent monarchists in the opposition...») Maria Pia is cited as member of the Portuguese Royal Family, even as a bastard one, and with Saxe-Coburg surname correctly translated. Also Jean Pailler's book The Pretender: Maria Pia, the would-be queen of Portugal she is mentioned as "H.R.H. Maria Pia of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha Braganza, the heiress of portuguese throne and the duchess of Braganza". This should be considered. It is based on bibliographic sources from different authors. Anjo-sozinho (talk) 23:29, 15 August 2015 (UTC)
- Apparently it has been considered and found to be a fringe view. Even if she were a bastard of Carlos I, which is also a fringe view, she would not be a member of the Portuguese royal family or of the Saxe-Coburg dynasty. Gerard von Hebel (talk) 23:46, 15 August 2015 (UTC)
There are here more sources about the the parental relationship between King Charles I of Portugal and Maria Pia of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha Braganza:
- Maria Pia of Braganza is presented in the family tree of King Charles I of Portugal by the renowned historian A. H. de Oliveira Marques in his book História de Portugal - Volume III published in Lisbon, 1982.
- Maria Pia of Braganza was cited as Princess Maria Pia of Saxe-Coburg, duchess of Bragança in CHILCOTE, Ronald H.; The Portuguese Revolution: State and Class in the Transition to Democracy, page 37. Rowman & Littlefield Publishers; Reprint edition (August 31, 2012).
- Maria Pia of Braganza was cited as the Princess Maria Pia in HILTON, Ronald; Hispanic American Report (Volume 10), page 576, published by the Stanford University, Department of Hispanic American Studies, in 1957.
- Maria Pia's life and parental relationship with King Charles was presented in a popular biography of Jean Pailler published under the title Maria Pia: A Mulher que Queria Ser Rainha de Portugal (The Pretender: Maria Pia, the would-be queen of Portugal), published by Bertrand Editora in Lisbon, 2006.
- Maria Pia's case was studied and presented openly by the famous Portuguese lawyer Francisco de Sousa Tavares and published under the title O caso de Maria Pia de Bragança (13 de maio de 1983) (The Maria Pia of Braganza's case), in Escritos Políticos I, by Mário Figuerinhas, pages 246–251, in Oporto, 1996.
- The author Isabel Lencastre published a literary work resulting from a study done to all the bastards of the Portuguese royalty and devoted an entire chapter to the case of Maria Pia of Braganza. The book is Bastardos Reais - Os Filhos Ilegítimos dos Reis de Portugal. Lisboa: Oficina do Livro, 2012, pages 211-223.
Thank you for your attention. Anjo-sozinho (talk) 04:08, 23 December 2015 (UTC)
- I also don’t see you quoting (chapter and verse) where any of these authors explicitly and clearly assert that this lady is indeed Carlos’ daughter and what their evidence or even proof for that is. Rggardless, you have no consensus for adding this matter to the article. Gerard von Hebel (talk) 07:20, 23 December 2015 (UTC)
Some of the invitations for comment regarding galleries for ethnic groups could be considered to be canvassing which isn't really allowed on wikipedia. please see WP:CANVAS for details. Thanks Spacecowboy420 (talk) 11:52, 3 December 2015 (UTC)
- User:Spacecowboy420, I think you need to read wp:canvas a little better. Gerard von Hebel (talk) 15:18, 3 December 2015 (UTC)
- It's certainly not a complaint from me, and I am not very experienced in wikipedia, so I might be wrong.
When you invited people for comment on the talk page of articles, that as I saw it, was not canvassing, because you would get people with a wide variety of opinions. However, I think when you invite individual editors to comment via their talk pages, that could be considered to be canvassing because you can choose editors who share the same opinions as yourself to comment. But as I said, I'm a new editor, so I am wrong a lot of the time. Spacecowboy420 (talk) 05:49, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks Spacecowboy420. That's why I didn't invite individual editors to comment via their talk pages. That would indeed be canvassing. I was canvassed myself a few years ago, you can still see it here somewhere at the top of my talkpage. Gerard von Hebel (talk) 06:06, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
- Apart from this guy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Hahun but it's no big deal, have a nice weekend. Spacecowboy420 (talk) 13:22, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
- Well, he initiated the whole thing so he hardly needed any encouragement from me! Gerard von Hebel (talk) 17:16, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
- I'm hoping that the discussion leads to clear consensus for all articles. So, I guess it's all good. Spacecowboy420 (talk) 05:42, 7 December 2015 (UTC)

Empire of Austria related articles - Resolution offer for Kingdom of Hungary (1526-1867)
I think first the Kingdom of Hungary (1526-1867) article should be resolved, since it is the most easier as having the less debated content. The offer is for that - with shortened and altered version of your proposal since higher perspectives of Napoleon and the Holy Roman Empire better related to the Austrian Empire article in such detail - (SOURCE are considered to be placed as in earlier proposals) :
INSTEAD OF THIS -> "In 1804 the Austrian Empire was created. This Empire came to comprise all Habsburg lands ruled by Francis II, Holy Roman Emperor (including Hungary), largely without changing the status quo that existed between them before 1804."
THIS ->
"In 1804 the Holy Roman Emperor Francis II, who was also the ruler of the dynastic lands of the Habsburg dynasty within and outside the Holy Roman Empire founded the Empire of Austria. This Empire came to comprise all Habsburg lands ruled by Francis II, Holy Roman Emperor. Emperor Franz assumed the title of Emperor of Austria for all the Erblande of the dynasty and for the other Lands, including Hungary. Thus Hungary formally became part of the Empire of Austria. After the cessation of the Holy Roman Empire (Kingdom of Hungary was not part of it) the new title of the Habsburg rulers (Emperor of Austria) did not in any sense affect the laws and the constitution of Hungary according to the Hungarian Diet and the proclamation of Francis I in a rescript Hungary was regnum independens, a separate Land as Article X of 1790 stipulated. Therefore no Imperial institutions were involved in it’s internal government. The Imperial matters - foreign policy, defense and state finance - were handled by the monarch as reservata exercised him as the King of Hungary."(KIENGIR (talk) 02:22, 28 December 2015 (UTC))

I agree that the infobox contains the list, so I probably did not need to write them out. My bigger issue is the implication that the "Kingdom" was ever a state in Germany, as stated in the opening sentence. The "Kingdom" ceased to exist before "Germany" was created. How about a simpler:
--- The Kingdom of Württemberg (German: Königreich Württemberg) existed from 1805 to 1918, located in the area that is now Baden-Württemberg in modern Germany. ---
This makes it clear that it was not part of modern Germany, and actually puts more focus on the Kingdom's existence by moving the dates ahead of the tie to Germany. (talk about the Kingdom first, then move on to German connection) Thoughts? (I'll check back here) Jmg38 (talk) 00:13, 8 January 2016 (UTC)
- Hello Jmg38, Germany is not just a modern country but it was also a constituent part of the Holy Roman Empire (officially a Kingdom itself even) and a geographical entity. And the Kingdom didn't cease to exist at the birth of the modern state we call Germany. It became a component member of it in 1871 and remained so until 1918 when the monarchies of both Germany as a whole and Württemberg were abolished.

- Reverting twice without using the talk page is a WP no-no, as far as I've learned during all these years of contributing.
- Re: Oden, let's do it there.
- On Prince (disambiguation) you reverted me, without talk, and commented "Not all Princes are royalty". That's exactly what I'm saying. They are not only the "highest aristocracy" either, since royalty is not normally called aristocracy. It's unclear now. Can you word it better? --SergeWoodzing (talk) 00:30, 11 January 2016 (UTC)
Hello Hebel, please provide an edit summary, when you remove sourced content to avoid such reverts next time. I agree with your more detailed rationale and will leave the Arnulf quote out - it's really a bit misplaced so early in the lead, and lacks further context. Thank you for spotting this problem.

- Hello GermanJoe Thanks for your comment and sorry about the lack of info in the initial edit. I failed to understand at the time what it was about and I assumed it was a mistake by someone. Also I couldn't see what Arnulf had actually said and what the quote was about. I'm curious though.. Otto's grave is in the Magdeburg Dome, and I visited his grave once. So I put the article about him on my watchlist. I can understand why Arnulf would have said something like that. He (Otto) was King of Germany, King of Italy.

- Hello Riddler, thanks for your interest. I don't know how you will go about translating the video which can be found here on youtube. Changing the English text will be challenging I think. I have thought in the past of making a Dutch or German version, but I'm not sure how to go about that. You can of course also use and alter the maps on the site that can be downloaded and try it there and make a whole new video. All of that is all right and ok with me, but there are a few conditions. The first one is that you mention me "Gerard von Hebel" on whatever venue you publish what you make, as the original author. In a summary or in the text of the video, doesn't matter. Of course you can add your own names if you want. Second is that it is used for educational purposes only. Not for overtly commercial or political reasons. Third is that I would like to see beforehand what you made so I can approve or not (I won't be too difficult about that, I just like to see). I wish you the best of luck with all of this and feel free to contact me when there are any questions or if you are ready to show me what you made, please contact me here or on the comment page of the YouTube video. I'm looking forward to that. Thanks again and keep in touch. Gerard von Hebel (talk) 17:18, 29 September 2016 (UTC)
