Richard's Wikipedia page says he was buried at Pontefract Castle.
Which is it?

message: You say 'An imaginary novel about Cecily entitled The Rose of Raby...' This was a real novel. I've seen a copy of it. Maybe some researcher might be able to trace author and details. Valetude (talk) 18:35, 26 July 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Imaginary novel? 

message: Currently the article says that "assuming Edward was not premature (there being no evidence either way), Richard of York would been several days march from Cecily at the time of conception".  This is not true. Edward could also have been slightly late. It's not as though every baby pops out at exactly 38 weeks. If Edward was born just 38 weeks and 4 days after conceptions, his father would have been in Rouen at the time of conception. This whole line of argument is so ridiculously tendentious. john k (talk) 22:49, 20 August 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Untrue statement 

message: Why is she given two sons named Henry? Not only have I never seen a source for this, but it is improbable as the first one could have lived for a few years. Smlark (talk) 19:05, 10 July 2014 (UTC)

message: As of a few months ago, Cecily had several titles to which she was entitled to in her info box. There were solid sources to back the info. I understand it was a tad much in her box, but those titles were extremely important. Is there a reason these are not stated elsewhere in the article at least? -- Lady Meg (talk) 02:52, 8 November 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Do we not even have her title of “Queen by right” mentioned?? In 1477, following the marriage of her grandson Richard of York, the Duchess was accorded the title ‘Queen of right‘ after using the title of ‘Cecily, the king’s mother and late wife unto Richard in right king of England and of France and lord of Ireland’ since 1464.

message: How can she be listed with her own maiden name but her husband's peerage? Cecily Neville on its own would likely suffice, but she might also be Cecily Plantagenet, Duchess of York. Robin S. Taylor (talk) 22:07, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Or just “Cecily, Duchess of York” — even the Duke isn’t “Richard Plantagenet, 3rd Duke of York”. They didn’t use a surname as I understand it. Lady Meg (talk) 05:40, 28 April 2023 (UTC)

message: Such a key political player and such a unworked article! The mother, grandmothers, great-grandmother and great-great grandmother of kings. She deserves better than this. Anna (talk) 20:13, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
