Talk:Kingdom of Castile

message: Good to see someone is / was translating the spanish page, which appears to be quite large. For a kingdom of it's size and importance, I'm suprised it was this short - and consequently it needs to be dramatically expanded. Orchid Righteous 17:25, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

message: I personally think that shine doesn't belong to coat of arms. It just looks too modern on a such old fashioned thing.

message: The two do need to be merged, but the rest of the crown of Castile article needs to be translated first as there is lots of info in the Spanish one and it would be easier just to translate it and merge the two in English later than try to translate and adapt the Spanish article!

replies: text: They don´t need to be merged: the Crown of Castile is the union of several kingdoms and appeared in the 13th century, while the kingdom of Castile started in the 11th century. They represent different entities and different historical moments. --Garcilaso 12:34, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

message: So, is anyone translating this article any more? Or should the tag be taken down? If you look at the history, you can see it's been pretty quiet for a while now. --ざくら木 17:53, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  The translation process: finished? 

message: On the country template on the top-right of the page, Castile is described as having existed from 850 – 1479. However, in the history section of the article, there is an sub-heading for the 16th century, over 20 years after Castile was originally said to have collapsed. Furthermore, the entry on that sub-header only describes events in the 15th century. Either two conflicting sources are arguing on the page, or someone got overzealous with adding sub-sections.

replies: text: The union of Castile and Aragon only took place in 1479, when the King and Queen of Castile became King and Queen of Aragon. In 1469, neither Isabella nor Ferdinand were sovereigns and thus their wedding represented no union yet. Surtsicna (talk) 21:07, 11 April 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Contradiction in need of fixing 

message: Does this tiny section really need to be present in this article?  While I also echo the thoughts of others that this page needs to be expanded, this section seems unneccessary and forced for an encyclopedic entry.Mattbaker55 (talk) 21:20, 14 April 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: Hello, I think it's necessary to cut all the content about the County of Castile in order to have its own article, with just lefting some lines about it and a link to the new County of Castile article. The period of the County of Castile has to be differenced to the Kingdom, as during the County they weren't independent & sovereign, but subordinated to the Kingdom of León.--HCPUNXKID 15:36, 23 July 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Need to split County of Castile 

message: This is very wrong since in fact in 1492 after the end of the reconquest the crowns would unite to form the Kingdom of Spain, in fact there are numerous official texts from that year onward that no longer use the term "Castile" but "Spain." Eritiloi5 (talk) 20:55, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: No, the state formation of Spain is more complicated (and moot), involving competing historiographical (nationalist) narratives, the 1469 marriage of the so-called Catholic Monarchs of Castile and Aragon (and their accessions to their respective thrones), the annexation of Granada (1492), Navarre (1512) and Portugal (1580), the existence of an early-Modern composite monarchy sometimes known, particularly upon the incorporation of Portugal (as it then covered the peninsular whole), as "Spanish Monarchy", and processes of administrative centralization (and liquidation of both medieval polities including, indeed, the Kingdom of Castile, as well as the distinctly early-modern system of councils) that took place well entered the 18th and 19th centuries. One thing is certain, though, in this historiographical mess: the "Kingdom of Castile" did not magically become the "Kingdom of Spain"  in 1492.--Asqueladd (talk) 21:04, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
