Talk:Henry, Holy Roman Emperor

Latest comment: 15 years ago by 77.176.130.22 in topic Untitled

User:Another avatar tried to rename Henry VII, Holy Roman Emperor to "Henry VIII". But this is simply false. Henry VII of Luxembourg is ever called "Henry VII" and NEVER "Henry VIII". Henry (VII) of Germany was NOT an emperor - he was rex romanorum and his father Frederick II remained emperor during his reign. For references see for example: The New Cambridge Medieval History V, p. 384ff. [for Henry (VII)] and NCMH VI, p. 529ff. [for Henry VII] ; Lexikon des Mittelalters (vol. 4, col. 2047ff.); Gebhardt. Handbuch der deutschen Geschichte I and so on....

Regarding another avatar, he/she has been blocked for 48 hrs for persistently breaching 3RR on thisw page; however, through an IP address, avatar's version has been restored. To avoid breaching 3RR myself, I've tagged this for clean-up. It is, however, obvious what needs to be done here - dabs don't include notes. Boleyn (talk) 18:29, 16 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

I have made a revert because the edits of Avatar are (sorry) simply nonsense - it is frustrating that "Another avatar" ignores all the references (see The New Cambridge Medieval History etc) and is doing original research. If you can understand german: read the articles in the NDB (Neue Deutsche Biographie - New German Biography): Henry (VII) and Henry VII. --77.176.130.22 (talk) 12:41, 17 August 2009 (UTC)Reply
