Talk:Alfonso the Battler

Untitled
This page should not be at "Alfonso I of Aragon" in preference to "Alfonso of Navarre". That's why I moved it to "Alfonso the Battler". This was reverted, but why? The stated reason was "to follow standard set by other Aragonese kings and the general pattern of Wikipedia. Surnames should not be used in the title of an article." Firstly, "the Battler" is not a surname. It is an epithet. Secondly, could not I move this page to "Alfonso of Navarre" with the same justification: "to follow standard set by other Navarrese kings"? Finally, Wikipedia uses epithets whenever they are more common and appropriate than any other possible name (thus Alexander the Great instead of Alexander III of Macedon or Alexander of Egypt). For the above-stated reasons, I intend to move the page back to "Alfonso the Battler". Srnec 05:21, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

number III in Castile
This Alfonso I of Aragon also was Alfonso III in the kingdom of Castile, as far as I know. When kings have several kingdoms under their rule, they usually have a different number in each kingdom (I think everybody knows that). So it is easy to see that this man was the first king with name Alfonso in the kingdom of Aragon, so he is Alfonso I in Aragon. But in the kingdom of Castile there were Alfonso I and II before him, thus he is Alfonso III in the kingdom of Castile. Sorry, i cannot remember the numbers he had in the kingdoms of Navarre, Leon, Asturias, etc etc. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.153.50.85 (talk) 14:18, 9 June 2013 (UTC)

"doña Urraca"
in the same way, i think doña (or donna) Urraca should have her number, the same as men. Since she was the first queen in Leon with name Urraca, she should be "Urraca I of Leon", writing the number, the same as it is done with men. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.153.50.85 (talk) 14:29, 9 June 2013 (UTC)
