Talk:Leo V of Armenia

message: I believe Leo VI was not originally buried in Saint Denis - the effigy was transferred to Saint Denis in the 19c, from the demolished Eglise des Celestins in Paris.

message: "Levon" is not typical English, that would be "Leo". The "Lusignan" surname is also an oddity, since no other Armenian monarchs have a surname in their article titles and it is against Wikipedia policy. Srnec (talk) 04:42, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: I encounter more Leos than Leons in my reading. "Leo" is the typical form of the Greek name, no? I would also move all the "Gosdantin" articles to "Constantine". Srnec (talk) 00:35, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I just noticed that the other Western European interwikis use "Leon" although German uses Leo for one of the other Levons.  The external links are mixed.  I'm not sure it matters but both Leo and Leon are derived from the same meaning ("lion")" Leo is from Latin and Leon is from Ancient Greek Λέων.  (The Armenian derived form the Greek.)  Other citations for Leo you would add? —  AjaxSmack   07:28, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

text: This is precisely why all the pages should be moved to "Leo" instead of Levon. I requested a move for this one b/c of the "Lusignan", but I wasn't going to suggest moving it to "Levon" when I preferred Leo. If anybody is looking for published sources for Leo V, here are a few revealed by Google: The Later Crusades by Norman Housley, The Kingdom of Cyprus and the Crusades by Peter Edbury, The Armenians by Anne Redgate, and The Hundred Years War by Robin Neillands. All of these books are recent (1991 or later) and deal directly with the topic save the last one. The first two are scholarly and footnoted, the last two are general. Non-Armenian-related works seem to favour "Leo" more than Armenian ones. Srnec (talk) 06:14, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

text: I have no preference really, i'm fine with Leo, Leon or Levon. There just is no other argument other than saying Leo is used more often in English texts. See how Palaiologos is used instead of the more common Palaeologus.-- Ευπάτωρ Talk!! 16:31, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

text: I had planned to propose such a thing but after this RM had run it its course since it was already pretty far along when I noticed the inconsistencies.  When (or if) I do, I will notify all participants here.  Or you can get it started if you like.  —  AjaxSmack   20:02, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

text: Shall we put this move request on hold while that discussion goes on? It would seem convenient to deal with them all at once, I think. -GTBacchus(talk) 05:44, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I think I will just go ahead and do the moves I suggested at User:Srnec/Kings of Cilicia unless I get any objections here/there/on my talk page. Or unless you, admin, tell me is "unwise". If so, can you please tell me where you think it best to propose those moves? Srnec (talk) 18:13, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I think it would be best to get a bit more input before moving pages. Why not post links at WP:NCNT and Wikipedia:WikiProject Armenia to your proposal? The more people see it before you move anything, the more likely the moves will stick. -GTBacchus(talk) 21:19, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Leon IV Lusignan.jpeg

message: Hi there. Identification of Lusignan's mother as a "daughter of King George V of Georgia" is highly problematic. The only source of "madame Soldanne"'s Georgian provenance is Jean Dardel's chronicle, which says that she was a "daughter of a king of Georgians", but gives no further details. She is otherwise unknown in contemporary sources. Several modern scholars have questioned the authenticity of this part of Dardel's account and Rüdt-Collenberg has gone further, claiming that Dardel actually invented Leo's Georgian mother in order to conceal his being an illegitimate son of Jean de Lusignan. Is there any credible source supporting the genealogy given here? --KoberTalk 18:04, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
