Talk:Alfonso XII

message: I suggest excising from the start of the article the doubts about his paternity, and together with some notes about his relationship to Elena Sanz, their offspring, and the juridical troubles of his will, 
move it to a (several) section in the text.
Besides this, as Alfonso XII's memory is deeply ingrained in spanish popular culture, some data about it would be of interest

thread_title:  Some proposals 

message: Cosmos666 has added a box which shows Alfonso's four grandparents and eight great-grandparents.  This is certainly not usual for an encylopedia article (indeed, often not for a full-length book about the subject).  I suggest removal.  If not, what are the limits to this?

message: Did Alfosono become King in December 1874 or January 1875? We need consistancy folks. GoodDay (talk) 21:53, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Reign

message: In July User:MJPE doubled the size of the article with this poorly written and completely unsourced edit. For some reason I can not understand, it has been allowed to remain. Unless someone wants to clean it up and add the required citations, I am going to replace it with what was there before the edit. Tad Lincoln (talk) 07:05, 28 September 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Massive unsourced additions 

message: An American dental student was the biological father of the King? I don't know were that comes from. Sounds suspiciously incorrect. And as for Enrique "Puig y Molto," there is no such man; he was actually Enrique Puigmolto y Mayans (Iberian Studies: Journal of the Iberian Social Studies Association, Volume 10, p. 45 and Isabel II: Los Espejos de la Reina by Juan Sisinio Pérez Garzón, p. 53), son of Jose Puigmolto y Perez, Conde de Torrefiel, and his wife Pascuala Mayans y Enriquez de Navarra, a sister of Luis Mayans y Enriquez de Navarra, Spanish Minister of State in July 1854. The name (Puigmolto) must have been incorrectly transcribed by whoever first made that edition to King Alfonso's biography. Lordmarmont (talk) 07:18, 25 November 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Alfonso's paternity 

message: What is the point of the split nation section? I am not doubting its accuracy but it seems out of place in a biography.--The Emperor's New Spy (talk) 19:59, 24 January 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I thought the same thing and removed it. All the events mentioned there took place decades before his birth. Surtsicna (talk) 10:01, 7 March 2013 (UTC)

thread_title:  Clean up 

message: The introduction to the article, particularly the second paragraph, has a mistake. The 1868 Spanish Revolution (BTW, the link should be changed, as it currently links to an event that took place during the Spanish Civil War) was not led by Carlists, but by pro-democracy politicians and military men.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Milarqui (talk • contribs) 19:44, 20 March 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Introduction 

message: The image caption says "Photograph by F. Voight, 1884", should the credit to the photographer be removed? I think Wikipedia credits photographers in their photograph's page, not in the photograph's caption in articles. Sofia Koutsouveli (talk) 17:26, 16 March 2014 (UTC)
