Talk:Kol of Sweden

Untitled

Is he the same person as Charles VII of Sweden? Ardric47 01:17, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

No, that was his brother (or half-brother). /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 00:05, 2 January 2011 (UTC)

Move again?

I'm still not 100% satisfied with recent moves, not even my own. Since our article on his brother or half-brother or nephew, his comrade in arms Boleslaw of Sweden, is thus named, can we agree on Kol of Sweden here, and fix that current page accordingly? Or why not Cole of Sweden since the man is unknown to English literature by any name, and that is his correct exonym in English? It seems to me, in any case, that this man obviously existed and that the likelihood is convincing, for all intents and purposes, that he was the son or grandson of one of the kings. There don't seem to be any sources which question that. SergeWoodzing (talk) 20:28, 11 October 2013 (UTC)

1. We're still not supposed to create our own names. If he is unknown in English literature, we should use the Swedish name.

2. I don't particularly care how he is disambiguated. "Kol of Sweden" is OK by me, as is the current solution.

3. I have never intended to imply that he was not historical, only that his exact relation to Sverker is not agreed upon, possibly even considered indeterminable.

1. OK.

2. Good, I have asked for technical assistance to get this done.

3. I didn't think you implied that, and I agree.

Thx. --SergeWoodzing (talk) 21:34, 11 October 2013 (UTC)
