Talk:Hubertus Prinz von Sachsen-Coburg und Gotha

Sourcing?

Email message from unknown author to Darryl Roger Lundy? Huh?--Jimbo Wales (talk) 12:51, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

I've now updated the article and included a reliable source for the info on the Coburg family heretofore attributed to an anonymous Peerage.com source. FactStraight (talk) 01:54, 21 April 2016 (UTC)

Duke of Albany

Hello User:BlueMoonlet I disagree with your edits on articles about the Dukes of Albany. The legislation is very clear. People who needed permission for their marriages under the Royal Marriages Act 1772 and not obtain them have conducted marriages that can have no consequences under British Law. This has recently been discussed again on this talk page. I'm going to revert your edits for now, awaiting a secondary source that indeed explicitly puts the question in doubt.

The matter was furthermore clearly demonstrated when the 2nd Duke of Cambridge conducted a legal marriage in contravention of the Royal Marriages act 1772. His sons were not only excluded from the succession to the throne but were also not eligible to inherit his peerages. In other places on wikipedia this is mentioned here and here.

Hubertus Prinz von Sachsen-Coburg und Gotha → Hubertus, Prince of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha – English title is preferred over German. 192.107.120.90 (talk) 14:10, 25 May 2018 (UTC)

• Speedy keep The current title is the proper name of the subject, not a title that might be translated. We would not translate the name of Whitey Herzog and title his article "Whitey Duke." This request is out of order. --BlueMoonlet (t/c) 21:37, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
• Oppose. It's a name not a title. The rationale is something like: children of morganatic marriages do not inherit the titles of their forefathers, and the head of the Saxe-Coburg family thought that Hubertus's grandparents married morganatically and so did not recognize the children's titles. (Yes, I know there's no such thing as a morganatic marriage in the modern era, but by that argument, there's no such thing as a prince of Saxe-Coburg now either.) For the same reason, the head of house excluded this branch of the family from the succession. DrKay (talk) 12:15, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
• Move to Prince Hubertus of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha (born 1961). While I support the title in English, I agree with the others that this is not a title. I also suggest moving Ernst Leopold Prinz von Sachsen-Coburg und Gotha to Prince Ernst Leopold of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha. --2601:183:101:58D0:B5CD:42EE:E561:79B2 (talk) 19:02, 26 May 2018 (UTC)

You agree that it is not a title, which means that it doesn't need to be translated into English. It seems inconsistent that you then support moving. --BlueMoonlet (t/c) 06:43, 1 June 2018 (UTC)
