Talk:List of monarchs of Northumbria

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Aethelwald Moll has, for the Anglo-Saxon/Latin, a W instead of VV. Which is correct? I'm changing to VV for now. --Golbez 18:46, Jun 11, 2005 (UTC)

Similar problem: Aelle II lacks Æ. Most of the references in aelle's article are Æ, but the article name lacks Æ. If Æ is accurate, the article probably should be moved. --Golbez 18:52, Jun 11, 2005 (UTC)

Another one: Ecgberht. The first entry has the AS as ECGBRYHT and the Latin as the same, but the second entry has the AS as ECGBRYHT and the Latin as ECGBERHT. Which is correct? --Golbez 18:59, Jun 11, 2005 (UTC)

You are quite right, of course. I have also spotted that I have put 'Eardwulf' as Eardvvulf, in fact it should be 'Eardvvlf' (apart from the erroneous 'u', wu was rendered as 'vv' rather than 'vvv' as might be expected.) --JohnArmagh 21:36, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)

OK, I think there were some problems in the list, like putting the Bernician Aethelric as having a second reign after Hussa and before Aethelfrith, and putting Aethelfrith as being of a separate dynasty from his predecessors among the Bernicians (of course his predecessors were also "Bernicians"; it was only Edwin who was Deiran), and some other things...I think it should be OK now, but I don't claim to be an expert, so feel free to take a harder look at it and fix anything else.
