King Frederick is now linking to the correct Frederick. TherasTaneel (talk) 17:16, 23 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

train??[edit]

"... took the train to Sweden 1520-1521" ? This looks like vandalism, though the revision history doesn't seem to show that. Maybe machine translation or other source of unreviewed text? Obscure meaning of "train"? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.199.5.107 (talk) 18:51, 6 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It is a gathering of people surrounding the king, a travel-court of sorts. (http://www.thefreedictionary.com/train) TherasTaneel (talk) 07:48, 12 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Depictions[edit]

It seems that he is both depicted in the Holy Ghost Church in Faaborg and Nørholm church near the Limfjord. Apparently the one in Nørholm is showing him with voluminous locks of hair, but in an effort to get Beldenak associated with being stiff necked, he is depictured as bald in the Holy Ghost church.

Can't understand much of the text[edit]

English isn't my native language and I don't really know anything about the man but the text makes no sense to me. A couple of examples:

  • "Partly because of this action the king accused him in 1517, who demanded a large indemnity, and he was followed several years in prison"
  • "He participated in the Battle of Brunnbäck Ferry (April 1521). Then he pulled even with Didrik Slagheck, he returned to Denmark and was imprisoned there at Hammershus on Bornholm." What? He fought with the Danes, and then returned to Denmark and got imprisoned? Is that related to how he "pulled even with Didrik"?
  • "In 1533 he was transferred to Kjærstrup by Daniel Rantzau, was abducted and beaten to Holstein." Was he beaten and later abducted to Holstein? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.12.248.39 (talk) 07:42, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
