Talk:Augusta Victoria of Schleswig-Holstein

Auguste/Augusta?

Is this a major conflict? Then this article should be moved. I working by Anglo-centric early 20th century books, so spelling foreign names isn't their strong suite.--ZayZayEM 12:05, 28 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Incorrect page title
Augusta Viktoria was a Princess of Schleswig-Holstein, not a duchess.

Unreferenced
A reference tag has been added because the article has become a POV debate over the subject's character. Tone is not encyclopedic, and cites are sorely needed. JNW 21:22, 8 July 2007 (UTC) Too right, such unsupported assertions are NPOV - not to mention inflammatory - and should be removed. I'll give the article one week (unless convinced work is being done) otherwise they go. Plutonium27 14:25, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Correct page title
The title of this article should be "Empress Auguste Viktoria, consort of William II, German Emperor." Torontonian1 (talk) 17:31, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

Victoria or Viktoria
The spelling of this name has nothing to do with the Kulturkampf. It is a trend since the early 19th century to germanize the spelling of foreign or "modernize" the spelling of German(ic) words and names. Examples are: Victoria - Viktoria, Carl - Karl, Cöln (Cologne) - Köln, Adolph - Adolf, Photograph - Fotograf, Cultur - Kultur, Ocean - Ozean, ... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.221.53.125 (talk) 21:30, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

State of her marriage
The wiki page for Philipp, Prince of Eulenburg says:
 * In October 1900, there were what Eulenburg called "appalling scenes" as the Empress behaved "like a madwoman" as she started to scream and cry uncontrollably, complaining that the Emperor did not love her, did not help with raising their children and spent all of his time with Eulenburg. The Kaiserin also accused her husband of having an affair with Eulenburg. 

There might be a case for briefly evaluating the happiness, or otherwise, of her marriage. Valetude (talk) 19:25, 13 May 2021 (UTC)

Large Gap in the Article's Historical Coverage?
There seems to be a large gap in article's historical coverage of Augusta's life. There is almost no information covering the span from 1890 to 1920, except that she was at her mother-in-law's bedside in 1901. Notably, the article states that in 1920 she was suffering from "the shock of exile and abdication," yet there's no explanation of when/where/why she was exiled, or of anything about her life during the years leading up to World War I or the war itself.

die Augusta Viktoria Schule
There's also a high school ('Gymnasium') in Flensburg named after her. Perhaps someone could add that to the list at the end of the article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:100E:B0C4:54BB:BCF5:E090:1E90:714A (talk) 00:22, 18 November 2023 (UTC)
