Talk:Frederick V of the Palatinate

replies: text: Hi Sam. It seems unclear why Czech translations are needed in the English article. Does the Czech article provide English translations? Let me know if you can still use help with translating the German article (I wrote part of that article myself).

message: Quoth the article:
"On 26 August 1619, the states of the Bohemian Confederacy elected Frederick as new King of Bohemia; Frederick first learned of his election on 29 August in Amberg.[4]
Two days later, Ferdinand II was elected as Holy Roman Emperor. Frederick was the only elector who voted against Ferdinand; even the Protestant electors John George I, Elector of Saxony and John Sigismund, Elector of Brandenburg voted for Ferdinand."
Did Frederick cast, or attempt to cast, the Bohemian electoral vote as well as the Palatine vote? Was there any provision for double voting in scenarios where more than one electorate was held by the same person? Did Fedinand, who still claimed the Bohemian throne as well, also vote, or attempt to vote, for himself? --Jfruh (talk) 02:07, 7 November 2011 (UTC)

message: The box on the right incorrectly says "Spouse Elizabeth of England". I suggest correcting it to "Elizabeth Stuart".
Even the link takes you to the page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elisabeth_of_the_Palatinate where there is no mention of Elizabeth Stuart being Elizabeth of England. That title belongs to the only Elizabeth of England, from the Welsh Tudor dynasty. 153.98.68.196 (talk) 13:03, 6 September 2016 (UTC)

Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion. 
The result of the move request was: no consensus. Both sides of the discussion highlighted relevant scholars who used their preferred name; per the evidence provided, neither the current title nor the proposed one seems to be a clear WP:COMMONNAME.

replies: text: Frederick V of the Palatinate →  – The page was removed on the argument that he was better known as King of Bohemia. However, the current title seems to be a combination of his Bohemian and Palatine titles. 67.173.23.66 (talk) 02:50, 21 April 2022 (UTC)
replies: text:  Hm. I see your point.  But "Elector Palatine" by itself feels rather naked without "of the Rhine".  I'm used to either the shortened form "of the Palatinate" or the fuller "Elector Palatine of the Rhine".  But that maybe just a personal preference. Walrasiad (talk) 03:40, 23 April 2022 (UTC)
replies: text:  Switching from "Oppose" to "Neutral" for now.  Nonetheless, I will note that WP:NCROY urges against using noble titles in the article titles ("King X of Y" should be merely "X of Y"), particularly for numbered monarchs.  That suggests "Frederick V of Palatinate" would follow the naming convention, whereas "Fred V, Elector Palatine" would violate it.  In the name of WP:CONSISTENCY, I might be reconciled with an exception if that is the case across all Electors Palatine of the Rhine, given that a mass move to "Palatinate" would be less likely to succeed.  I would still prefer it, but I am not going to oppose it. Walrasiad (talk) 16:45, 24 April 2022 (UTC)

text: See also the Amazon summary for the recent OUP book. I'm neutral about whether or not to add "of the Rhine". Somej (talk) 09:46, 24 April 2022 (UTC)
