Requested move

[edit]

Maria Josefa of SaxonyPrincess Maria Josepha of Saxony - The lady was never ruling queen or empress consort, she was only married to an archduke. This article's name should revert to her maiden form of name per Wikipedia:Naming conventions (names and titles). Gryffindor 16:59, 22 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Obvious as it falls in line for the treatment of princesses vs consorts. Charles 17:32, 22 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
The maiden-name usage on this subject makes no sense to begin with; this is one of the worst examples. Septentrionalis 18:08, 23 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Then may I suggest you post your grievances on the talk page of the naming conventions? Until then we need to comply with the rules. Gryffindor 19:21, 23 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
The naming conventions are a guideline, which may be ignored with cause. My reasons for believing that this branch of them is an imperfect guideline, which generalizes beyond prudence, are already on Wikipedia talk:naming conventions (names and titles). You didn't see them? Septentrionalis 20:22, 23 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
With all due respect I don't understand why this is such an issue. Leaving it at the current format would lead users to believe she was queen consort, when in fact she was not. I don't think ignoring guidelines is the way out here, it would all be in chaos. Gryffindor 20:59, 23 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
This implication (which is denied by the text of the article) only follows for a reader who knows the Wikipedia convention on the subject. Since I think most of those readers are already represented on this talk-page, is this really a problem? ;->Septentrionalis 03:13, 24 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I have to say I'm not convinced the move is justified. I would support whatever is the most common usage. Deb 21:51, 23 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
"Archduchess Maria Josepha of Saxony"? Since when are archduchesses from Saxony? Septentrionalis what exactly are you saying, that the current form "Maria Josefa of Saxony" should be left as it is, or would you rather have her as "Archduchess Maria Josefa of Austria"? please explain...

Separate options

[edit]

There seems to be general agreement on Josepha, but if anyone wants to add other choices to the mix, please do. Septentrionalis 15:24, 24 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Other business

[edit]

So what did she do for the last 25 years of her life? Septentrionalis 03:25, 24 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Why does this article have such a moralistic tone? Was it taken from the Catholic Encyclopedia? --173.32.134.108 (talk) 00:36, 3 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
