Old, unsectioned comment[edit]

He's never called this. We need a better way to disambiguate the two Prince Henries. john k 04:46, 25 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Prince Albert Wilhelm Heinrich of Prussia → Prince Heinrich of Prussia – The page for Prince Heinrich of Prussia is a DAB page. He wasn't called Prince Albert Wilhelm Heinrich, just Heinrich, or Henry. A DAB link to the older Prince Heinrich/Henry could always be put on the moved page. I'd actually prefer this to be at Prince Henry of Prussia because he was more often called Henry, but since the other prince is there, I think Heinrich would be good.

It seems deeply artificial to me to have an article Prince Henry of Prussia on Frederick the Great's brother, and Prince Heinrich of Prussia on William II's brother. I'd suggest moving these articles to Prince Henry of Prussia (1726-1802) and Prince Henry of Prussia (1862-1929). john k 11:33, 14 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This is a problem encountered among many such sets of royals on Wikipedia. For example, Austrian Francises (Franzes, etc) and some German/Prussian Williams (Wilhelms). I believe it came to a point where they were dealt with individually if usage swayed similarly named royals to names of differing languages. Personally, my opinion is to anglicise all such sets of royals but it has been problematic in the past. Charles 23:29, 14 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wilhelm II's grandchildren?[edit]

Why aren't there articles for the grandchildren? I went to go link their names but they don't appear in the article. Somebody fix this. --Ragemanchoo (talk) 11:32, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Prince Henry of Germany visit to USA 1902[edit]

I'm just researching Irving Plaza in NYC and came across a ref that they had a tribute to 'Prince Henry' in Feb 1902, which he missed as his ship was delayed by storms. I see on YouTube an Edison film from a couple days later when the Roosevelts christen a new yacht "Meteor' for the Kaiser. Just thought I'd mention. "Prince Henry" seems to have been in common usage in the English speaking world. Wwwhatsup (talk) 01:10, 1 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ah! Found another one, and another, and another, and another, and another. H. seems to have done pretty well out of the visit - beer and cigs, and acclaim at home to boot! Wwwhatsup (talk) 04:45, 1 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
