Requested move edit

There are multiple Praters, this one is in Vienna. "Wiener" is German and we should use English, therefore request move. Gryffindor 23:06, 6 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

Oppose. I disagree; I see no problem having German words in English encyclopædia titles, so I think "Wiener Prater" is a better title than "Prater, Vienna". A second point: the Viennese Prater is by far the commonest usage of "Prater" (which currently redirects there). The Wikimedia Commons category "Prater" refers solely to Vienna, for instance. If you really can't live with "Wiener Prater", then move it to "Prater", and create a "Prater (disambiguation)", if necessary, to link to any other articles that may be created about other Praters. --Stemonitis 10:28, 7 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

Emperor Joseph II in 1766? edit

Clearly, this must be an awfully stupid mistake, Joseph II not taking the throne until his mother Maria Theresa's death in 1780. What is the source? Or should it simply be reworded as Crown Prince?
