1 Merger with Duce??
2 Lists too long?
3 I think an English explanation of these titles are in order
4 King Arthur

[edit] Merger with Duce??

Not in the reader's interest. Mussolini is a single case, and not a formal title, neither military nor aristocratic. If duce remains too small to have a page of its own, it should rather redirect to Mussolini, not all kinds of duces that predate his fascism, unlikely to appeal specifically to the reader looking up duce.

[edit] Lists too long?

Is there a technical / layouting way of compacting them (like hiding the expanded 'contents' box)? [posted unsigned by 222.153.245.207 ]

They're not, in fact deliberately limited to historically significant or otherwise notorious dukes; it's precisely because of detailed subsectioning that one can easily navigate to those data one seeks, and pass over what one isn't interested in Fastifex 10:29, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] I think an English explanation of these titles are in order

That's all I have to say.

[edit] King Arthur

I've included a bit about King Arthur being called dux bellorum to replace the former Dux Bellorum article, which erroneously claimed that "Dux Bellorum" was a title bestowed by Roman emperors to their supreme commanders, and which I've redirected to here. --Nicknack009 21:20, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
