Talk:List of rulers named Leopold

Prince Léopold of Nassau
I turned a misplaced line on Prince Léopold of Nassau (he's not a ruler, and frankly not likely to become one) into two convoluted sentences. It seemed to me that in the absence of even a stub on him, the reference to him needed enuf info to put him into, uh, more perspective than the entry i found permits. I don't have enuf interest to even look for a line-of-succession article -- tho i admit taking some pleasure in the challenges of (I thought i'd manage it in my head, but i ended up scribbling a 4-generation descendant tree.) I know there's succession info in a lot of Brit bio articles; an article on a house's line of succession, that supports quickly finding any individual's role, sounds like a good idea and probably a better one that having information by individual like what i wrote. I'd support replacing the text of List of rulers named Leopold with a short sentence lk'g to a line-of-Belgian-succession article, or (if that can't come soon) a slightly longer sent lk'g to a stub in which those 2 sents would be about half the prose content. It's my understanding that the accompanying main-namespace page would be an acceptable Set Index Article with or without the section i moved to Leopold (given name) and with or without the section i created, but that either section prevents it from being a Dab. IMO, that implies that the hndis tag must be removed -- and it will disappear from the Cats that may have gotten it its current attention! If only bcz the attention seems valuable, i'm allowing time for discussion of that issue before removing the tag. A fine outcome would IMO be conversion of the Prince Léopold of Nassau 'graph to an orthodox Dab entry, e.g. one of
 * 1) trying to deduce the rules (probably, if you rule, your oldest son succeeds you, or if none, your oldest daughter, or if none, your oldest brother, etc., but i could be wrong)
 * 2) getting all those mooks straight in my head despite their efforts to be confused with each other.
 * * Prince Léopold of Nassau, 9 8th (or whatever) in line of succession to become Grand Duke Léopold I of Belgium
 * * Prince Léopold of Nassau, 9 8th in line of succession to become King Léopold IV of Belgium

and keeping the tag. --Jerzy•t 21:00 & 21:41, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I also assume that the hndis tag, if kept, implies the need to bypass the Rdr's, tho of course the alternate names can be mentioned (in plain text) as AKAs before or after their respective lks; it's the piping that's the problem. --Jerzy•t 21:41, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
