English and French monarchs overlap chart

This seems to me like trivia. Feed back  ☎ 03:10, 21 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep this seems to me to be a comparative resource related to the history of two powerful European nations. If anything it might be expanded if neighbouring nations had monarchs at the time. Gregkaye (talk) 10:08, 21 June 2014 (UTC)
 * We'd be talking about a different article if you want something of a larger scope. An side-by-side list of English and French monarchs is just trivia/cruft/content forking. Feed  back  ☎ 00:21, 25 June 2014 (UTC)

 * Userfy It's unsourced and only has value in the chart. This material belongs as a an article spun off from France–United Kingdom relations.  Chris Troutman  ( talk ) 21:57, 21 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Sourcing would be trivial from any of the many history books and articles on Anglo-French relations. Unless you believe the information is substantially incorrect, it's irrelevant to deletion. And why are you saying it belongs as a spin-off but wanting to delete it? --Colapeninsula (talk) 12:09, 23 June 2014 (UTC)


 * Weak keep - it is utterly harmless and someone may fiond it useful. Peterkingiron (talk) 15:25, 22 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete. Inaccurate cruft. Srnec (talk) 17:33, 24 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep - It is more than just a side-by-side list of English and French monarchs, the information on wars and marriages is helpful in understanding the changing relationship between these nations without having to read through text heavy articles. Expand with more useful historical context. NoSeptember  01:14, 28 June 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete or repurpose. As a singular table, it serves no purpose other than trivia. As a part of a narrative of the British/French long-standing feud or France-United Kingdom relations, it might be very useful indeed.--Coin945 (talk) 16:19, 30 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete. No need for a separate article. Perhaps the table/information can be repurposed, as suggested, in an article such as France-United Kingdom relations though. Sotakeit (talk) 12:51, 4 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete as pointless trivia. It doesn't really provide any useful information because monarchs weren't always driving forces behind foreign politics anyway (as the list tries to imply), and dynasties weren't particularly closely related either.--Staberinde (talk) 15:24, 6 July 2014 (UTC)
