Talk:Infante Jaime, Duke of Segovia

Untitled

I am not sure why Terrance Darnell thinks that removing HRH from the opening line of this article constitutes vandalism. Certainly, the Wikipedia:Manual of Style (biographies) under the heading Honorific prefixes states: "(3) Styles shall not be used to open articles on royalty and popes. Thus the article on Pope Benedict XVI shall not begin 'His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI . . . ' nor the article on Queen Victoria begin 'Her Majesty Queen Victoria . . .'" It would appear beyond dispute that this article should not begin with HRH which, according to wikipedia, stands for "His Royal Highness." Accordingly, I am removing the HRH. --ThomasK107 06:50, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

• None of our other articles on royalty (or a few that have been missed) have HRH or HM or any other style in the opening sentence. They have mostly been replaced by infoboxes. I am sure it wouldn't be hard to make one for these articles. Prsgoddess187 12:34, 15 February 2006 (UTC) - I added an infobox for Jaime, if everyone thinks it is acceptable, we can add it to the other disputed pages.

The vandalism was not in removing HRH from the opening line of the article, but it was in the multiple lies full of hate written by the IP 205.188.116.65 in his/her edit [1].

Thanks to Prsgoddess187 for the infobox, it's very good.

No problem. If there is POV in the article, feel free to remove it. Just make sure you have info to back up your changes. Glad you like the infobox. I added it to Alfonso de Borbón Dampierre and Louis Alphonse, Duke of Anjou. Prsgoddess187 21:08, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

Legitimist Styling

I was just on the Alfonso XIII article which states that he was succeeded in his Legitimist claim by one "Jacques II". Upon clicking on that link, I was told in this article that it was in fact "Henri VI". Obviously they are one and the same, but surely onely one can be correct? Likewise was his son Alphonse II or III? Frederick T (talk) 17:15, 3 September 2010 (UTC)

Both Jacques II and Henri VI are correct! He used both at different times. Noel S McFerran (talk) 17:33, 3 September 2010 (UTC)

Who was Jacques I that he followed? And how can he be Jaime IV of Spain? There was only a James II of Aragon, unless the Carlist decided to count James III of Majorca.--Queen Elizabeth II's Little Spy (talk) 17:48, 7 January 2012 (UTC)

1st Duke

Why is he the 1st duke? The title never was expected to pass to his son was it, so why the first.--Queen Elizabeth II's Little Spy (talk) 03:21, 21 December 2010 (UTC)

Deaf and mute

If he learnt to speak 3 languages then he was not mute. I have removed the references to him being mute. ChilternGiant (talk) 15:51, 17 April 2012 (UTC)

Cause of deafness

The article says he was deaf as the result of an operation, but all of the listed sources seem to say that he was born deaf. So, which is it? Tad Lincoln (talk) 05:42, 7 June 2012 (UTC)

Bold writing?

Why is the opening paragraph all in bold??? IMO only his title at the beginning should be bold. --PrincessAlice13 (talk) 17:50, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
