German language Wikipedia:[edit]

the German article on Prince August Wilhelm has much more information currently than is in this English language article which can be transcluded here by someone of sufficient translating skills. Someone please do. 24.22.62.144 (talk) 19:31, 20 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have added all the content from the German version. Dr Gangrene (talk) 01:09, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hoax driven vandalism[edit]

Since at least August 2014, on several articles related to members of the Prussian House of Hohenzollern, including this one, socks and anons have repeatedly inserted edits containing false information based on this hoax, posted on Prince August Wilhelm of Prussia on 5 August 2014 at 17:58: "1944 Prince August Wilhelm married for the second time with russian Princess Catherine of Drutsk (the Rurik dynasty). They had a son, and they named him Alexander Friedrich (Prince Alexander Friedrich of Prussia (1945—2009))...Prince Alexander Friedrich of Prussia (1945—2009). He also, in turn, married and had two children (Prince Alexander( Alexander Ludwig Eugen Adalbert Ferdinand Günter Eitel Christian Viktor Prinz von Preussen) and Prince Heinrich (Mithras Theoderich Karl Heinrich Friedrich Wilhelm Albrecht Lorenz August Prinz von Preussen))." This fairy tale gets embellished with online citations, etc. as it is deleted and re-added to articles. Apparently the perpetrator believes that he or she is a descendant of Hohenzollern royalty and wants people who read English Wikipedia to believe it too. Beware.

IRA[edit]

There are persistent rumours that some of the leaders of the 1916 Easter Rising in Dublin wanted to declare, not a republic, but an independent Kingdom of Ireland, and invite a son of the Kaiser to take the throne - in some accounts, this one. But most name his younger brother Prince Joachim as the candidate. Can any of this be verified? 2A00:23C3:E284:900:D4BF:A763:9FB:40B7 (talk) 19:08, 17 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
