Requested move
[edit]- The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the debate was not moved due to no consensus. -- Kjkolb 03:56, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
PageName → New Name – Belgium is integral to this man's identity, IMHO, as much as Austria-Este is. I feel that there are a few options which I will list below. Charles 22:33, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
Survey
[edit]Prince Lorenz of Belgium
[edit]Prince Lorenz of Belgium, Archduke of Austria-Este
[edit]- Support (First) Lorenz is primarily known as a member of the Belgian royal family, even though he heads an Austrian branch of it. Charles 22:33, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
Archduke Lorenz, Prince of Belgium
[edit]- Support (Third) This was the form decided upon for Louise of Tuscany. Charles 16:26, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
Lorenz, Archduke of Austria-Este
[edit]- Support (Second) This would place Lorenz's title as it is, as the head of a house, rather than as a prince carrying a substantive title. Charles 16:26, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
Lorenz of Austria-Este
[edit]- First choice. Let's keep it simple, on the analogy of George of Denmark, who is chiefly (perhaps only) known as a member of the British royal house. Septentrionalis 16:00, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
- Comment George is so named because of his status as consort to a sovereign. Charles 16:26, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
Prince Lorenz of Austria-Este
[edit]- Second choice, for those who insist on including a title. This one is presumably ratified by usage, and does not involve any PoV on the status of Modena. Septentrionalis 16:03, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
- Comment The title "Prince of Austria-Este" does not exist. Charles 16:23, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
- This comment would be relevant to Lorenz, Prince of Austria-Este, if anyone had proposed it. Septentrionalis 18:15, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
- Comment The title "Prince of Austria-Este" does not exist. Charles 16:23, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
Discussion
[edit]- I feel that a form incorporating both designations would be optimal, but the length may be cumbersome. Charles 22:47, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
- An English-language search of Factiva (the world's largest newspaper database) shows the following:
- "Archduke Lorenz" 27 occurrences (the most recent of which is June 2002)
- "Prince Lorenz" 46 occurrences (including 37 since June 2002); I checked that these were all either "Prince Lorenz of Belgium" or "Belgian's Prince Lorenz" or something similar (i.e. they are not references to some other prince named Lorenz)
- I personally always refer to this individual as "Archduke Lorenz of Austria-Este", but the Factiva numbers would suggest that "Prince Lorenz of Belgium" would be the appropriate Wikipedia article title. This is one of those many occasions when general usage is different from those of us who hang out in royalty discussion groups. Noel S McFerran 22:16, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
- An English-language search of Factiva (the world's largest newspaper database) shows the following:
- Though I am favorably inclined to "Lorenz of Austria-Este" as the French, Dutch (and Catalan) Wikipedias have, Wikipedia:Naming conventions (names and titles) would indicate using the current name (as with Prince Andrew, Duke of York). —Centrx→talk • 18:26, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
- More thoughts: I firmly feel that Prince Lorenz of Belgium, Archduke of Austria-Este is the best title for a few reasons... Even though Austria is obviously a country, it makes it clear that the archducal title is not a grant of the Kingdom of Belgium (e.g., such as Prince Andrew, Duke of York... Prince and Duke are both UK titles in this instance). Belgium should either be mentioned with the princely title or omitted altogether in the article title (e.g., Lorenz, Archduke of Austria-Este).
- Another issue that I would bring up but think would be better to discuss in one place is the titles of his children. Appending the title Archduke of Austria-Este to the end of each of their names is a form used for the head of the house. If they were each titled Archduke Name, Prince of Belgium, I think it would be a better form because there is no one who is "the" Prince of Belgium anyway, since Belgium has a king. A longer form would be Archduke Name of Austria-Este, Prince of Belgium. Charles 22:02, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
- The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.
Duke of Modena
[edit]is he really considered the heir to the dukedom of Modena? I know when Francis V died, he willed his wealth to Franz Ferdinand, who took the Este name and arms, but normal succession would make Franz Duke of Bavaria, Duke of Modena. so I guess the question is there a source of the Archduke of Austria-Este using this title? 71.194.44.209 (talk) 05:32, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

Prince of Belgium and Archduke of Austria-Este
[edit]The official website of the Belgian Monarchy states on this page that Prince Lorenz "became Prince of Belgium in 1995". It also refers to him as "Archduke of Austria-Este". I therefore revised the infobox's "title" line to reflect that. -- Blairall (talk) 00:37, 10 December 2016 (UTC)

Requested move 14 May 2019
[edit]- The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
The result of the move request was: No consensus for the proposed move, though some modifications such as Amakuru's might have a chance. (non-admin closure) Dicklyon (talk) 05:05, 4 July 2019 (UTC)
- Prince Lorenz of Belgium, Archduke of Austria-Este → Lorenz, Archduke of Austria-Este
- Princess Astrid of Belgium, Archduchess of Austria-Este → Astrid, Archduchess of Austria-Este
– Per WP:CONCISE and WP:CONSISTENCY (Robert, Archduke of Austria-Este, Margherita, Archduchess of Austria-Este). I also want to point out that these two are among the titled royals, and in such cases where the individual is an heir or head of a house we follow the format "Name, Title" (Charles, Prince of Wales, Jean-Christophe, Prince Napoléon, Catharina-Amalia, Princess of Orange, etc). Keivan.fTalk 01:05, 14 May 2019 (UTC) --Relisting. King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 18:26, 26 May 2019 (UTC)--Relisting. DannyS712 (talk) 20:01, 18 June 2019 (UTC)
- Support for consistency and conciseness. bd2412 T 02:41, 24 May 2019 (UTC)
- Amakuru, you have moved the articles to titles that were not suggested here. Can you please correct the mistakes? Surtsicna (talk) 10:06, 24 May 2019 (UTC)
- @Surtsicna:: Ah, apologies, I thought the request was just about removing the word "Prince". In that case I've reopened the move and would Oppose this proposal. They are primarily known as prince/princess of Belgium, so that should be the way they're titled. The situation is not the same as "Charles, Prince of Wales" because his title is a British one, directly linked to his status as a British prince. — Amakuru (talk) 10:19, 24 May 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose the examples you've gave are of heirs of ruling royal houses, their titles are substantive. in this case, while the house of Austria-Este exists, its dominion does not. therefore i propose to treat it the same way we treat [[Prince Prince Phillip, Duke of Edinburgh, Prince William, Duke of Cambridge and Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex if not by your own proposition these pages should be renamed to Phillip, Duke of Edinburgh etc. just Prince Phillip was made a british prince, Lorenz was also made a belgian prince. thus the same rule that applies to them should apply here as well. etc. CharlesViBritannia (talk) 17:01, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
- And? The examples that you have given are in no way related to this case. The Duke of Edinburgh, for example, has never been the title of a ruling monarch. Even if Lorenz is not an actual ruler, he carries a title that once belonged to a group of rulers. Now if we were to title this page based on Lorenz's position, then Prince Lorenz of Belgium would have been enough, since he is a Belgian prince by marriage and it would also make the title more concise. Keivan.fTalk 20:02, 13 June 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose for Astrid, who should be Princess Astrid of Belgium for simplicity. There aren't any other princesses of Belgium called Astrid, the disambiguator is unnecessary and we should use the common name. Princess Astrid of Belgium is about 200-times more common on google news searches than Astrid, Archduchess of Austria-Este. It's split about evenly for Prince Lorenz of Belgium and Lorenz, Archduke of Austria-Este. Celia Homeford (talk) 13:06, 27 June 2019 (UTC)

Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
The result of the move request was: uncontested move. DrKay (talk) 08:18, 14 June 2020 (UTC)
Lorenz, Prince of Belgium → Prince Lorenz of Belgium – Per Wikipedia:Naming conventions (royalty and nobility), as Prince in this case is not a substantive title. 2601:241:301:4360:E8B6:A58:7A05:DC21 (talk) 21:43, 4 June 2020 (UTC)
- Support, usual format. Surtsicna (talk) 22:23, 4 June 2020 (UTC)
- Comment, The page was since moved back to its original title, which seems to negate the need for the move. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:241:301:4360:39E5:ACCF:BE8B:B41A (talk) 12:29, 5 June 2020 (UTC)
- It is unusual indeed but I still support the move to Prince Lorenz of Belgium. It is the title by which he has been commonly known for over twenty years. Concision is appreciated too. The articles about his children have been moved already. Surtsicna (talk) 12:37, 5 June 2020 (UTC)
- Perhaps this would require a new move request. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:241:301:4360:39E5:ACCF:BE8B:B41A (talk) 12:53, 5 June 2020 (UTC)
