Talk:Frederica of Hanover

message: She is supposed to have personally led a Greek Army tank unit on a rescue mission to save children from  the Bulgarians. I would like to find more about this and add it, but don't want the research vandalised. Who decides things  like this?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.31.36.112 (talk) 21:44, 11 November 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: What about the tanks?

message: Contrary to the 'first edition' of this page Frederika was not a Princess of Great Britain. Giano 21:24, 29 Jun 2004 (UTC)
thread_title: Contrary?

message: Actually, Frederika of Hanover was actually a "Princess of Great Britain & Ireland" with the style of "Highness". Below is the footnote that is reference in the wiki article about her father, Ernst Augustus III, Duke of Brunswick:
2 By Royal Warrant of 17 June 1914, King George V granted the eldest son and any children thereafter born to Prince Ernst August of Hanover, then reigning Duke of Brunswick-Lüneburg, the title of Prince (or Princess) of Great Britain and Ireland with the style Highness. The provisions of this Royal Warrant ceased with George V's Letters Patent of 30 November 1917, and Hanoverian princes and princesses born after this date were no longer allowed the title Prince of Great Britain and Ireland with the style Highness.
So from her birth until the Letters Patent of November 30, 1917, Frederika of Hanover was also a Princess of Great Britain.68.1.178.185 01:26, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Indeed, but more specifically a Princess of Great Britain and Ireland. Funny thing is I have never specifically seen "United Kingdom" use, but it must have been applied. To this day, members of the House of Hanover use the titles Prince/Princess of Hanover, Duke/Duchess of Brunswick and Lunenburg, Royal Prince/Princess of Great Britain and Ireland.

thread_title:  Title of Princess of Great Britain 

message: This article should be checked for its neutrality as it is politically biased. Especially the part "Reign" should be rewritten altogether as it presents only proroyalist arguments. The opposition's accusations were really reasonable and well founded. The problem with that royal family unlike other in Europe is that it had often sided with the right or even with military dictatorhips, thus identifying itself with only a fraction of the political spectrum far from being the unifying symbolic figure the monarch is in Spain or Britain. In addition queen Federica was notorious for her numerous arbitrary and counterconstitutional interventions in Greek politics and clashes with democratically elected governments, thus jeopardizing national interests. The fact that monarchy has been abolished in Greece because of the people's disdain for the autocracy of Federica and her likes should seriously concern whoever is going to revise the article. --Conudrum 15:31, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Biased article

message: From November 8 th 1918 until January 9 th 1938 her style in Germany was:
Frederika Princess of Hannover, Duchess of Brunswick-Lüneburg, without the HRH, because of the abolishing of the monarchy. --Kai27 (talk) 12:18, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

message: There were protests against her visit to the U.S. in 1964 (eg. ). Was this just because of her former HJ membership, or were there other reasons? Drutt (talk) 19:49, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

message: From 1967 on, she lived in Chennai (Madras), India.
She died while undergoing plastic surgery. Eyelid surgery. Her daughter Queen Sofia of Spain was skiing. ¿Cataracts?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.213.116.65 (talk) 15:59, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Calling it plastic surgery makes it sound as though it was purely for cosmetic reasons. Eyelids are soft tissue, & often droop with age, impairing sight, so they are lifted for medical reasons, not cosmetic ones. At any rate, the official line is that it was during cataract surgery, & that is what should be used, barring sources to the contrary that state she was undergoing a cosmetic procedure at the time of her death. Sofia skiing has what to do with anything? ScarletRibbons (talk) 17:08, 29 March 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  She never made a public appearance in Spain 

message: No matter how brilliant and insightful, POV is NOT permitted.  This is policy, not guidance.  Placing a frivolous, opinionated POV section ahead of "Early life" borders on vandalism.  As a previous post has said, this is not the place for propaganda. J M Rice (talk) 18:21, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Deleted POV "Character" section 

message: I have added a neutrality warning.  
1) Given the lack of a separate page for the Queen's camps, and the importance of the camps in terms of her reputation in Greece, what is needed is an objective appraisal, including conditions, educational standards, effect on civil war. There is quite a lot good objective material available, but mostly in Greek. 
2) Her position is often overstated, and many claims are unsubstantiated.
What is needed is for the whole thing to be reworked by an objective contributor ! Bougatsa42 (talk) 19:34, 30 September 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Please retract your last ad-hominem statement about contributors being members of the royal family per our pillar policy of no personal attacks and our principle of assumption of good faith. Thank you. Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις 19:49, 30 September 2012 (UTC)

text: Fair enough. Since you didn't retract your personal attacks I did it for you. Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις 20:10, 30 September 2012 (UTC)

text: Even in a "lighthearted" fashion it is still a personal attack. And your reply to me also included rude personal attacks. As far as others not being able to see your now removed personal attacks don't worry. They are still retrievable through the page history and people can still judge for themselves. I will not be involved in further mudslinging with you but you accusing me, the target of your personal attacks, of unethical actions, for removing your unethical attacks, is really ironic.

text: If this is the case attempt to have good faith of the individual and warn them that they maybe in violation of WP:EW. If after several days they do not stop, or take there concerns to the article's talk page per WP:BRD, warn once more. Save those diffs. If the individual continues, inform the individual that you are taking the issue to the appropriate notification board regarding edit warring. Be warned as, if you are involved in that war, both the individual and yourself maybe temporarily blocked from editing.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 22:57, 2 October 2012 (UTC)

Dr. K. is vandalising my contribution to the talk page, by falsely accusing me of a series of personal attacks, and thus creating an unfair impression of me.  (Dr.K. now claims that I am a sock-puppet....) Bougatsa42 (talk) 22:18, 1 October 2012 (UTC)
