message: The Portuguese version of this entry has received FA-status. Given my non-knowledge of Portuguese, the content of this article does not look too different to this one, except that the English version does not have any references. If enough references are given (and the page is cleaned up a bit), maybe we could have FA too. - 52 Pickup 19:08, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

message: Just curious...  What languages were spoken in Prussia over the years?   Surely a variety.  But what was/were the language(s) of state?  How were various languages/dialects consolidated into German?  Any expertise here would be a welcome addition.  Smilo Don (talk) 17:09, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

message: I think it would be a good idea to puts some labels on the map, naming the Baltic Sea and some surrounding countries.  I know, of course, where Prussia was, but when I first saw the map, I though I was looking at a South-up view of the Mediterranean Sea.  It took me about ten seconds to figure out where I was.  For someone reading the article who doesn't even know where Prussia was to begin with, I would think it could be quite befuddlesome. Whind Soull (talk) 00:14, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

message: In 1876, would it have been more common to refer to Königsberg as a German city or a Prussian city? I realize it was technically both, but we're trying to decide how to properly refer to the city over in the Emma Goldman article. One editor wants to refer to it as "the Prussian capital of Königsberg" while another perfers just "Königsberg, Germany". Which is the better choice? Please reply here. Thanks!

message: Hi, I think we have a double article here, on one hand, we have an article on Prussia, and on the other hand an article on Kingdom of Prussia. I think these two can be combined.

message: The Kingdom of Prussia was a sovereign state from 1701 to 1866/67, when the North German Confederation was established. The question then is: should we change (or add) the North German Confederation as a successor to the Kingdom of Prussia in the info box? Johnny83m (talk) 00:42, 6 May 2009 (UTC)

message: Quoting Rothbard on the subject of compulsory education in Prussia is a blatant violation of the NPOV policy as it makes the assumption that compulsory education is despotic with no alternative vie offered. An article of the historical kingdom of Prussia of all things is not the place to push Rothbard's theories, least of all framing them as if they are a uncontroversial and mainstream academic contribution to the subject. Ideally the section should be deleted or failing that countered with a quotation from a more mainstream source showing Rothbard's position to be very much a fringe one. As it stands it is both biased and an example of giving undue weight to a certain unusual view.--Iain3217 (talk) 19:11, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

message: I know nearly nothing about Prussia, but I think there is one section missing: How does the Kingdom of Prussia begin? It must refer to Duchy of Prussia and Treaty of Wehlau. --Kittyhawk2 (talk) 04:20, 17 April 2010 (UTC)

message: The title "King in Prussia" was adopted only because title "king of Prussia" was held by king of Poland. "King of Prussia" title was adopted by prussian king in 1772 after First Partition of Poland, as a result Prussia incorporated Royal Prussia which was formerly part of Poland-Lithuania.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.21.15.76 (talk) 15:58, 1 October 2011 (UTC)

message: I removed Ghana from the list of territories but then quickly scanned the Brandenburger Gold Coast article. There is indeed a relationship between the Kingdom of Prussia and the modern Ghanaian state. It would be helpful to have an explanation of that relationship in this article, as opposed to just mentioning Ghana in the middle of a list of European countries. Perhaps a separate section would be best. As it was, however, it looked so out of place that I first assumed it was vandalism.
If you understand the history of Prussian colonialism in Africa, I would encourage you to add some language about this interesting and important relationship. —giso6150 (talk) 23:30, 3 June 2014 (UTC)

message: See subject. I am by no means an expert in the subject but Bismark is... well... Bismark. He brought more glory to the Prussian crown than just about anyone - that alone merits at least a mention.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:646:4201:2598:5DB3:2429:8544:D87 (talk) 13:24, 3 March 2016 (UTC)

message: I have noticed that the flag has been changed to Flag of the Kingdom of Prussia (1803-1892) from Flag of Prussia (1892-1918), the reasoning being that the older flag was in use for a longer period of time and when Prussia was an indepedent state.
Is this a change that should be kept? What do other editors think? LittleCuteSuit (talk) 01:12, 15 July 2019 (UTC)

message: For people reverting  changes to the flag (Wesoree and Vif12vf) you may be interested that they are trying to do a similar thing at Prussia.
