Article title
editAny complaints if I move this to Rupert Loewenstein? The German nobility was abolished in 1919, he isn't actually a Prince, and the newspaper articles were mentioning "Prince" in the title mostly to make a flashy headline. (And even then, several didn't use it - The Economist, etc. just called him "Rupert Loewenstein".) It'd be one thing if this is how he was referred to (e.g. Queen Latifah) but aside from "Princey" being a nickname, that doesn't appear to be the case either. He's just Rupert Loewenstein.

- You may be right that he is not a prince technically speaking, but most of the sources in our ref section use the term Prince so I think it should stay as Prince. He is dead after all so it's not self promotion anymore, even if it once was. Philafrenzy (talk) 19:27, 5 June 2014 (UTC)
Two more remarks: Nobility in Germany was abolished legally; factually, it's alive and kicking; secondly, the guy lived in Great Britain, where nobility has been cut back, but not abolished... --Terminally uncool (talk) 16:44, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
