Talk:Sverker the Elder

Children of Sverker
According to my reference (Lindström, 2006) Sverker had the following children: This list is much different from the information in the article which is therefore either wrong or needs references. As my book is not citing any references itself, I feel reluctant to add the list above to the article.
 * Jon Jarl, dead c. 1153, "killed by peasants at the thing".
 * Karl Sverkersson, king 1161-1167, married to Kristina Stigsdotter of Danish House of Hvide (Hvideätten).
 * Three other children:
 * Daughter, unknown name, married to Knut Magnusson of Denmark.
 * Kol, dead c. 1172-73. (Possible son of Jon Jarl)
 * Burislev, dead 1172-73. (Possible son of Jon Jarl)

– The territorial designation should be removed per WP:CONCISE and WP:NCROY. There is no risk of confusion since the name is unique to Swedish kings. The possible pairs of titles are then either Sverker I and Sverker II, or Sverker the Elder and Sverker the Younger. I am suggesting to use Elder/Younger forms here for aesthetic reasons, but I am also fine with Sverker I and Sverker II, as they seem to be equally common in literature.

 * Sverker I of Sweden → Sverker the Elder
