Talk:Otto of Greece

message: I have reviewed this article and have expressed concerns about the following issues:
*Expand lead per WP:LEAD, this should be able to stand on its own as a mini-article. 
*Biography section needs to be expanded, is there any information on his personal life/childhood?
*Early reign section contains only 2 citations, there needs to be more. "The Greeks were soon more heavily taxed than under Turkish rule" How much more?, this could be considered questionable and needs a citation. "beautiful and talented Duchess Amelie of Oldenburg" is POV and needs a source.
*" Not entirely faithful to his wife, he, like his father had a liaison with Jane Digby" this sentence is confusing, did both he and his father have a liason with the same woman, Jane Digby?
*There are a few 1 sentence paragraphs, can these be merged with other paragraphs or expanded upon?
*The parties section has only 1 citation, this is a major concern and needs to be cited more.
*Exile and death section could be expanded, any details on death, how did he die? when did he die? 
*The images are a bit cluttered but look nice, they should be formatted so that they don't intersect the section headings.
The article passes criteria 1, 4, 5, and 6, it just needs serious work on the citations and expanding coverage on all sections.

thread_title: GA On Hold

message: I have passed this article becaue it passes all the good article criteria. To reach featured status it will need to address some of the concerns above as well as need to contain more citations. Congratulations! T Rex | talk 09:37, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: GA pass

message: Otto must have had more than one Christian name, which must have been followed by some dynastic moniker - presumably "von" something. He must also have had more titles; indeed, he must have been born with at least one title, perhaps Prince or Duke of Whatever. What was his full name, and what other titles did he hold during his lifetime? Would some knowledgeable person like to edit them in? Tom129.93.17.202 17:46, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: TRex is right: Otto Friedrich Ludwig von Wittelsbach, Prince of Bavaria and King of Greece would be his full style. Argos'Dad 18:35, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: What was Otto's full name?

message: Could someone elaborate what the reasons(or at least the pretext) behind the coup that overthrew him were?The article as it is now doesn't seem to mention them --129.107.81.15 (talk) 19:58, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

message: This article is part of the GA Sweeps for quality assessment.  In reviewing this article I found that it has remained faithful to the GA criteria.  See  for my review.  Overall the lead is good, you should add a couple of cites to some unsourced paragraphs and look to either expand or combine a couple of stub paragraphs.  Otherwise I feel as though the article should be kept as GA.  I made some minor corrections to the article as I reviewed it.  If you have questions about this review please contact me on my talk page.  H1nkles (talk) 19:19, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

message: I don't really care if it's "Otto" or "Othon", but we need to be consistent. I'm changing it all to Otto... now. StAnselm (talk) 22:24, 18 March 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: What is his name?

message: Unlike it says in the infobox (and elsewhere in the article), Otto did not actually have a successor. George I was the King of the Hellenes, not the King of Greece like Otto. Can this be removed from the infobox, please. I know how to do it myself, of course, but I just want everyone watching this article to agree to this change, that’s all.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Johnanth (talk • contribs) 16:46, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Succession 

message: The lead refers to "the three Great Powers", without making it clear which they were; and the rest of the article does not make it clear. Likely candidates are Britain, Russia, Germany, the Ottoman Empire, France. Maproom (talk) 22:06, 6 February 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Britain, France, Russia. I edited the relevant part in the intro. --Greece666 (talk) 20:18, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  "the three Great Powers" 

message: The article says that king Othon had an illegitimate son called Manoli Tanga. I can't find any information about it and the article does't gove the page of the book SARAKATSANI – THE MOST ANCIENT PEOPLE OF EUROPE. May someone give more information about it ? Thanks a lot 31.39.53.205 (talk) 13:27, 26 January 2014 (UTC)

message: The picture in the article titled "Statue of Otto in Missolonghi", is actually one of the two statues of Lord Byron in Missolonghi, as can also be seen here, here and here. There's no statue of King Otto in Missolonghi. --amadeus1eu (talk) 04:48, 15 August 2016 (UTC)

message: *"Greek society was in reality very tolerant of other religions."
*"But after 400 years of religious oppression by the Ottomans, Greeks were very suspicious of imposed "Liberal European progress". "
*"By tradition dated back to the Byzantine era, the king was regarded by the Church as part of her head."
Actually, the two last paragraphs in the section Parties, Finances and the Church are irrelevant to Otto and are a general and very subjective summary of the religious history of Greece. They should probably be removed.
This is a pity because there is an excellent monograph on Otto´s reign by Petropulos.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Greece666 (talk • contribs) 19:58, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
