replies: text: The possibility of this typical Daily Mail fantasy (a polite word) being true is equal to the possibility that the current Prince William is named after his illustrious cousin, the late and last Emperor of Germany, or, more up to date, that Southern gentleman and scholar, William Jefferson Clinton. As there is no evidence for it being true, should it not be deleted? Clifford Mill (talk) 16:25, 2 February 2016 (UTC)

message: Later Life only discussed his death, so I changed it to Death. I did this because you expect to find such a section in the biographical article about anybody whose death was notable in some way, like being notably young.  Personal Life only discusses his diagnosis of porphyria, instead of what relationships he may have had (including the friendship with Charles).  The porphyria might justify a section title to itself.Silas Maxfield (talk) 10:38, 22 December 2011 (UTC)

message: Below the current disambiguation, another one could read This article is about George V's grandson. For the Duke of Cambridge, who was named after him, see Prince William, Duke of Cambridge. Should this be included at the top of the page?. --PrincessAlice13 (talk) 22:50, 14 December 2012 (UTC)

message: I reverted/removed the following from this article as there is no source or documentation for this statement:
However, she was not the first. The first, wishing to be left un-named, was proposed to much earlier. He stood her up at a railway station after the royal family rejected her due to her family's alleged lack of noble standing. She married another fellow, but the Prince continued to pursue her even after she was married, eventually bearing a daughter together. The daughter, also diagnosed with Porphria, wishes to remain un-named. She now lives in Australia.

message: The porphyria article casts doubt on the George III theory and I wonder if those conclusions should be included here as well. JFW | T@lk 12:23, 21 January 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: a recent article in BBC History magazine said that the porphyria theory about George III has been discredited. I think they now say it was probably bipolar disorder. This should be corrected. 188.30.188.30 (talk) 08:15, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
