The article contains 35 cn tags, and will need quite a bit of work meet the GA standards again. Also tagged for using unreliable sources. Femke (alt) (talk) 12:09, 10 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

Queen Anne?

edit

Is there a reason why we never call her that? 99.228.43.228 (talk) 23:34, 4 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

"Anne Boleyn (/ˈbʊlɪn, bʊˈlɪn/;[7][8][9] c. 1501 or 1507 – 19 May 1536) was Queen of England from …" is the opening sentence, so we are clear that she WAS Queen for a period. History refers to ALL of Henry's wives mainly by their 'maiden' names - or titles for Catherine of Aragon, presumably for reasons of clarity. There is no reason why we could not call her 'Queen Anne' for the period she held that title.Pincrete (talk) 07:41, 5 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
Many Queen Consorts tend to be referred to by their titles or maiden names - Joan of Navarre, Catherine of Valois, Margaret of Anjou, Elizabeth Woodville, Anne Neville, Elizabeth of York, Catherine of Aragon, Anne of Cleves, Anne of Denmark - sometimes with "Queen" added, but often without. In that there have been a number of Queen Consorts called Anne (including two married to Henry VIII), plus one Queen Regnant, calling her Anne Boleyn makes it clear which Queen Anne is referred to.

Someone with rights needs to fix it. 96.18.184.221 (talk) 23:56, 21 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Partly done I converted clauses separated by semi-colons into several sentences. However, you have been pretty vague about what needs fixing. Is there anything else? Peaceray (talk) 00:53, 22 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
