	== French nobility ==

	hi dan,
	well that´s what I would like to know as well? the Count of Paris is listed as Comte de Paris, as is the Duc de Berry and the Duc de Broglie. It´s '''vicomte Cavaignac''' and not Vicsount Cavaignac, and '''princesse des ursins''' and not Princess of Ursins. which is fine, because they are French and have french names and titles. If you also look at Karl Ritter von Ghega, the name is kept in German, and not in english. because in english, the translation would make no sense (Charles Knight of Ghega?). So what is the policy here? I moved them in order for the listing to be consistent. My opinion is that this is an english-language website, but Misplaced Pages is all about authenticity, right? Then the authentic name would be in the original language. Just like everyone is learning english, english-speakers would do well to learn the native written way and name as well... ] 09:10, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Hi. I hope you are doing well. I am glad to tell you that Misplaced Pages:In the news/Posted/Archives are now fully available, with all the vandalism/disruptive edits removed.
