"Duke" not "Count Palatine" of Palatinate-Neuburg

Latest comment: 13 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

As a review of the German Wikipedia pages and secondary literature will reveal, these rulers were actually "Dukes of Palatinate Neuburg." In addition they bore the title of "Count Palatine" from their descent from the Rhenish line of the Wittelsbach family. However, they were not the "Counts" of Neuburg, as that territory was a duchy. Because of this, I suggest we should revise the nomenclature to "Dukes of Palatinate Neuburg" in keeping with they German Wikipedia pages.

If there is no objection to this action, I will create the replacement "Dukes of Palatinate-Neuburg" category after seven days. Gamonetus (talk) 13:44, 13 February 2011 (UTC)Reply
