Frederica of Württemberg (1699-1781)Duchess Frederica of Württemberg (abbess) – or Duchess Frederica of Württemberg (born 1699). The naming should be consistent with that of the other Duchess Frederica of Württemberg; both of them were duchesses. Wikipedia doesn't ordinarily disambiguate people using lifespan ranges (especially hyphenated ones). —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 08:43, 30 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

I agree with the needed to change for disambiguation, but I'd support a different title, like Frederica of Württemberg, to avoid titles, which is avoided unless it cannot be. Christine (Figureskatingfan) (talk) 16:09, 30 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
I notice you used a pipe for that link, and I don't really understand why. Ideally we should use consistent titles that distinguish between the topics. Both of these women were duchesses, so if we have a title of "Frederica of Württemberg" for one of them and "Duchess Frederica of Württemberg" for the other one, it is not clear which one of them is being referred to in each title. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 19:49, 30 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
@BarrelProof, my apologies; I didn't check how VE created the link. I withdraw my suggestion. Support either nom. Christine (Figureskatingfan) (talk) 21:57, 30 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
