Comment[edit]
Is she really a "politician"??? ħuman 16:56, 21 January 2009 (EST)
- Head of state, so yeah, at least theoretically. We don't need a monarchs category as it would have so few entries in it, so politicians will do. Wèàšèìòìď

Until someone wishes to develop an article on the subject that George Duke of Clarence (Malmsey George, brother of Edward IV and Richard III - the original Hogfather) was attainted and this was never reversed (even when Queen Vic abolished attainder) - so his descendants cannot inherit the crown, despite some claims to the contrary. And also QEII is descended from Edward IV's eldest daughter. Jackiespeel (talk) 22:38, 14 January 2010 (UTC)
- I saw a YouTube documentary on the subject. They found the "rightful" king of England. Not only is he in fact an Australian, but he is - ironically - a republican (meaning he supports making Australia a republic). (talk) Meshakhad
Duke or Duchess?[edit]
I imagine it could be tradition to call rulers duke instead of duchess--User:Brxbrx/sig 05:03, 16 December 2011 (UTC)

Prince George[edit]
Can a mention be made of the latest lizardlet addition (until Zara's sproglet hatches) to 'the firm#? Chiefly notable so far for being the first to-be-born to have a Wikipedia page - and managing a royal wave on first display. 171.33.222.26 (talk) 16:55, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
