Talk:Carlos I of Portugal

message: The Guinness Book of Records claims that Carlos died before Crown Prince Luis, and thus Luis succeeded to the throne as King Luis II, albeit for only 20 minutes before he too died.  This got him into Guinness as the monarch with the world's shortest reign.  Thus, Carlos was succeeded by Luis II, and Luis II was then succeeded by his younger brother Manuel II, all within the space of 20 minutes.  Cheers JackofOz 09:54, 3 Apr 2004 (UTC)

message: There is one little mistake in the article. The train arrived to Barreiro railway station located on the south side of River Tejo (Tagus). Barreiro was the terminal station of the Sul e Sueste Railway in Portugal. There was a public steam ferry service across Tejo (Tagus) which
connected Barreiro to Lissabon. But the king, for sure, had his own transport across the river.
The railway steamers operated from Barreiro to Praca do Commercio. If the Royal Family stepped down at Caes dos Sodre it would suggest that they should have probably idented to continue their journey from Caes dos Sodre railway station to Estoril or Cascais. One other very reliable source says that Carol I was assasinated in the north west corner of the Praca do Commercio, at the opening of the Rua do Arsenal on February 1, 1908. There was an "express train" arriving to Barreiro about 16.30 from Casa Branca which had a connection with Villa Vicosa - Casa Branca morning train. It is likely that the special Royal coach was coupled in these trains on February 1. 1908.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.113.113.77 (talk) 16:55, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

message: Some time ago I removed the reference to his alleged illegitimate daughter Hilda Toledano from the article. Her claims were spurious and did not coincide with the life and times of Carlos. User:Anjo-sozinho seems bent on keeping that information in the article. She has her own article and I don't think the matter is serious enough to repeat it here. I don't see the added value in that. I'll wait for other opinions before reverting again. It should at least however be outside of the Marriage & Children section, because it has no business being there. That I will make so.

replies: text: Bla, bla, bla... the user Gerard von Hebel is always deleting information based on reliable sources just because he (as many other Miguelist hidden supporters) want to hidden the life of Mrs. Maria Pia of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha Braganza, the well famous bastard daughter of King Charles I of Portugal. At the end, they accuse me of being insulting them when they are driving me several times accusations and threats. Wikipedia must be neutral! Anjo-sozinho (talk) 19:46, 18 December 2015 (UTC)

replies: text: Besides, given the seriousness (or rather lack thereof) of the lady’s claims and the somewhat phantastic elements these are made up off, and the fact that all of these had not even seen the light of day during the lifetime of Carlos (see the wiki article about her) I don’t believe that this is in the scope of this article anyway. I know that Anjo believes that this is all being suppressed by Miguelist forces like me, but I think that Wikipedia is not a poster page for someone’s pet causes. Gerard von Hebel (talk) 00:50, 19 December 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Anjo-sozinho honestly acts like wikipedia is one giant Miguelist conspiracy to suppress Maria Pia's claims and continuously tries to attack Hebel, which is just unfair. I think consensus here is that the source isnt credible and wont be included - sounds settled to me. Cristiano Tomás (talk) 04:35, 20 December 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: I concur with these observations. FactStraight (talk) 09:01, 24 December 2015 (UTC)

text: There's isn't just only one source, but a lot of bibliographical sources supporting that the lady Maria Pia of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha Braganza is an alleged bastard child of King Carlos I of Portugal. It should be mentioned in this article, as it happens in all articles about this Portuguese monarch. Thanks you. Anjo-sozinho (talk) 03:15, 23 December 2015 (UTC)

text: Hebel: there are now published many sources and references. That's what Wikipedia needs, not only mere opinions from people who insist on their lack of neutrality... Anjo-sozinho (talk) 04:19, 23 December 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: There is no consensus about adding this subject matter to the article and certainly not to this section. Gerard von Hebel (talk) 06:47, 23 December 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: In fact the consensus here to omit mention of her is the most relevant of several credible reasons why she should not be mentioned in this article. Another is that doing so violates undue weight. FactStraight (talk) 09:01, 24 December 2015 (UTC)

text: I also don’t see you quoting (chapter and verse) where any of these authors explicitly and clearly assert that this lady is indeed Carlos’ daughter and what their evidence or even proof for that is. Gerard von Hebel (talk) 07:06, 23 December 2015 (UTC)

message: My understanding is that Carlos I of Portugal belonged to a Cadet branch of the House of Braganza not the House itself. I'm not a Miguelist. I'd just like to leave this note. With thanks Jccoelho99 (talk) 20:35, 16 March 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Technically, and indeed actually, Carlos I and his relatives were dynasts and agnates of the House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha and recognized and titled as such. For the purposes of the Portuguese dynasty however, they were legally members of the House of Braganza that, under Portuguese law, was called and described as such. These facts are explained in this and other articles, accompanied by a footnote that describes the situation. There's nothing unequivolent or partisan about the matter.
