[edit] Title: HIH
There has been considerable debate over the use of titles at the beginning of the article like this, especially not bolded and italicised. It's surely even less appropriate, however, when the person concerned is – as the article makes clear – only a pretender, not in office. That makes its use a political statement, which Wikipedia shouldn't be making. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 09:21, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Unfortunately Sissel111 has simply replaced the honorific without having the courtesy to discuss it here. I've removed it again, pending discussion. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 12:49, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)

- If he continues to revert to his version without having the simple good manners to discuss the issue, I shall ask for the page to be protected. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 11:13, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)
I'm sorry as I did such act. I didn't know well the rule here but he was already succeeded the 29th head of Korean imperial house, and he is obvious pretender in Korea. I think he must be called the His Imperial Highness. It must mark definitely. User:Sissel111
- That his title would be "His Imperial Highness" can be mentioned in the article, but for Wikipedia to call him that would (I assume) be to take a stand on the legitimacy of his claim; our NPoV policy rule that out.

[edit] heirs
Does Prince Gu have any sons or daughters who can become his heirs? – Kaihsu 12:45, 2005 Jun 20 (UTC)
- An adopted daughter; I don't know what her status is. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 18:26, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Alternative names
I should explain that I placed the alternative names in the summary because, when I was looking for details of his life and (more importantly) trying to confirm his death, I had no luck — until I realised that our article is one the very few that call him by this name. Most Internet sources seem to use Yih Ku, or other variants. Given that I'd been confused, i thought that other readers would be too, so I brought the alternative Romanisations into greater prominence. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 18:26, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Recent edits
I've just removed another in a series of copyvio images up-loaded by Sissel111 (talk · contribs). I've also removed the following paragraph, which I'm completely unable to understand:
- "Lord Yi Won (李源 이원 i won) (b.1961), the only son of Prince Gap and also the cousin's son which the Prince Gu loved most to link for him was decided unofficially in a following head of Korean Imperial Household."
--Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 09:16, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
- Sissel111 has removed the copyvio template from the image and replaced the image in the article. I've reverted this, and issued a warning. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 14:58, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Yi Won?
Does anyone know who this is? --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 22:42, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
Thanks. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 09:07, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Title
Per the naming conventions for (cough) monarchs, shouldn't this be at Yi Gu? -- Visviva 03:48, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Name table.
Should the pretended title 황태손 be included here? It is verifiable and surely relevant to an article about someone whose lone notable attribute was his claim to the Joseon line. The content was removed by an anon, but I have restored it for now. -- Visviva 13:53, 27 July 2005 (UTC)
- I've added "claimed" as an attempt at compromise; is that OK? --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 16:16, 27 July 2005 (UTC)
