Talk:Teresa Cristina of the Two Sicilies

Orphan
She is only an orphan after both her parents died.Tallewang (talk) 05:52, 10 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Not necessarily, see Orphan. Most dictionary entries for "orphan" have definitions which include children who have lost only one parent and children which have been abandoned in some degree by their parents. Teresa Cristina experienced both. &bull; Astynax talk 08:56, 10 October 2013 (UTC)

Honorifics
The guideline (MOS:HONORIFIC) says "honorific titles should not be deleted when they are used throughout an article unless there is consensus." To my reading the guideline clearly says that styles like "His Majesty" and "Her Imperial Highness" should not be used in the article. However, titles like "Lord Smith" or "Sir Robert" or "King Francis II" or "Dom Pedro" are "optional". If the consensus is to keep them, then the guideline does not support their removal.

 * During their lifetimes and even by historians they were always called by he honorifics ("Dom Pedro", "Dona Maria Leopoldina", etc...). However, to avoid an over abundance of "dom" and "dona" in the articles I chose to use them only when a person is mentioned for the first time and that's it. I believe it's reasonable. --Lecen (talk) 09:52, 20 June 2015 (UTC)
 * I guess it is also reasonable then to introduce Indian figures, like Ghandi, Nehru, and Patel, with the honorific suffix "-ji". Or the Japanese emperors with "-tenno". And why stop with the likes of Pedro II and Teresa Cristina? How about we append every Portuguese monarch since Afonso Henriques with "dom"? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 110.55.3.168 (talk • contribs) 11:34, 20 June 2015‎ (UTC)

Dom honorific issue
Recently, I have been engaged in an edit war with User:Lecen on the use of honorifics. I thought that it's against Wikipedia's MOS to retain honorifics, including those of royalty. If memory serves me correctly, the few exceptions are Burmese honorifcs (for instance, U Thant). Then why is it that when it comes to 18th to 19th century Portuguese and Brazilian royalty, we see the brazen use of "dom/dona/don"? Why is it that certain users are blockings attempts on deleting these honorifcs? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 110.55.3.168 (talk) 11:02, 20 June 2015 (UTC)
 * See the section above this one. DrKiernan (talk) 11:07, 20 June 2015 (UTC)
 * For an IP with few contributions you seem to know a lot about Wikipedia rules. --Lecen (talk) 11:35, 20 June 2015 (UTC)
 * My Wiki username is "Coincleaner", but I have forgotten BOTH the password and email of my account. So I've given up all attempts to recover it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 110.55.3.168 (talk) 12:11, 20 June 2015 (UTC)
