Hello, I'm Fragrant Peony. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Charles XIII, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Fragrant Peony (talk) 14:25, 3 April 2023 (UTC)
- I explicitly declared that I didn't have a source. If you bother to read the sentence in context, perhaps you can see why I templated it. 151.177.56.148 (talk) 14:29, 3 April 2023 (UTC)
- I have now checked with Template:Dubious. It says no source is needed. The template should be used to flag statements one considers dubious, not ones that one can prove wrong.151.177.56.148 (talk) 14:39, 3 April 2023 (UTC)
- It seems that you considered the expression "royal couple" dubious when used about a prince and his wife, because they where not a king and queen. This is a misunderstanding of the term royal. The person had the title duke, but he was a prince (and his wife a princess with the title duchess). A royal prince and a princess are royalty. Thus they do not have to be a king and queen to be called a royal couple. The statement is thus not dubious at all and the template was not necessary. --Aciram (talk) 00:22, 4 April 2023 (UTC)
- No, I did not misunderstand the term. It is in fact ambiguous in this place, since the text tells about two couples at once: the king and the queen, and the king's brother the duke and the duchess. Those couples have to be distinguished somehow, and they aren't. The passage in question could refer to either. 151.177.56.148 (talk) 06:14, 4 April 2023 (UTC)
- And may I add, in this matter I would have thought simple, that although the king's marriage is mentioned in the sentence before, it is Charles, not the king, who is said a little below to have had "numerous affairs".151.177.56.148 (talk) 20:53, 4 April 2023 (UTC)
