Talk:Charles II, Grand Duke of Mecklenburg-Strelitz

Some differences between the English and German versions:

The date of death in this version conflicts with the date in the German version. Going by the ADB source, I will revise the English to conform.

The English version says Adolf Friedrich III died childless; the German says that he died without a male successor: should this be clarified? Chonak 01:34, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

You're right about the death date, thanks for correcting that. But the German wikipedia says that he died without any male descendants. ("Nachdem sein Onkel Adolf Friedrich III. im Jahre 1752 ohne männliche Nachfahren verstorben war").--Carabinieri^T_T^a_a^l_l^k_k 08:39, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

That's my understanding too, so I'll modify the English version ("childless") to match the German ("without any male descendants"). Chonak 14:08, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

Is it worthwhile to bring over the list of children? Maybe not noteworthy enough for the English WP. Chonak 14:11, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

OK, now I get your point about the children, I hadn't noticed the difference between being childless and not having any male descendants (please don't call me a sexist). About the list of children: I do think it would be relevant for the English WP, but when I first tranlated the article I was just too lazy to bring over the list. I'll probably do so soon, if you don't, but right now I don't really have the time.--Carabinieri^T_T^a_a^l_l^k_k 17:42, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
