The ''Younger'' Saxony: The Duchy and the Electorate


thumb|right|Coat of arms of Saxony ↗ used since the accession of the [[House of Ascania ↗ to the dukedom in 1180, comprising the Ascanian arms with an added bendwise crancelin ↗ indicating the Saxon ducal rank]]

The new dukes replaced the Saxon horse emblem (20px ↗) and introduced their Ascanian family colours and emblem (20px ↗) added by a bendwise crancelin, symbolising the Saxon ducal crown, as new coat-of-arms of Saxony (20px ↗). The later rulers of the House of Wettin ↗ adopted the Ascanian coat-of-arms.

The Ascanian Dynasty continued in Saxe-Lauenburg until 1689, but after the Lauenburg line had finally lost the Saxon Electorate to the Wittenberg line in 1356 and failed to obtain the succession in the Electorate after 1422, recognition of the Dukes of Saxe-Lauenburg as Dukes of Saxony waned. To follow the remnant House of Ascania in Saxe-Lauenburg, follow this table. For the following Electors of Saxony, see below the House of Wettin ↗.

Albert II retained Saxe-Wittenberg, and became the head of the elder Saxon Line, while his nephews ruled together in Saxe-Lauenburg, becoming the founders of the younger Saxon Line.

| align="center" colspan=7 | In 1296 Albert II and his nephews Albert III, Eric I, and John II ended their joint rule and partitioned Saxony into the Lauenburg line, where Albert III, Eric I, and John II continued to rule jointly until 1303, and the Wittenberg line, where Albert II continued as sole ruler until 1298. Since the Duke of Saxony was considered one of the prince-elector ↗s choosing a new Holy Roman Emperor ↗, conflict arose between the lines of Lauenburg and Wittenberg over the issue of who should cast Saxony's vote. In 1314 both lines found themselves on different sides in a double election. Eventually, the Dukes of Saxe-Wittenberg succeeded in 1356 after the promulgation of the Golden Bull ↗. To distinguish him from other rulers bearing the title Duke of Saxony, he was commonly called ''Elector of Saxony ↗''.

The male line of Saxe-Lauenburg died out in 1689 with Julius Francis's death. The Welfs ↗ of Brunswick-Lüneburg-Celle ↗ usurped the territory, preventing the succession of the legitimate heiress, Anna Maria Franziska of Saxe-Lauenburg ↗. In fact, George William, Duke of Brunswick-Lüneburg ↗ was a great-great-grandson of Magnus I ↗ through his great-grandmother Dorothea of Saxe-Lauenburg ↗. In 1814, after being deposed by various occupations in the Napoleonic Wars ↗, Prince Regent George ↗ passed Saxe-Lauenburg to his cousin, Frederick VI of Denmark ↗, in a general territorial realignment at the Congress of Vienna ↗. In 1865, after the Second Schleswig War ↗, the Treaty of Vienna ↗ handed Saxe-Lauenburg to William I of Prussia ↗, to whom the Estates ↗ of Saxe-Lauenburg offered the ducal throne. Both duke and estates decided to merge Saxe-Lauenburg into Prussia, as the district Duchy of Lauenburg ↗, with effect from 1 July 1876.

House of Wettin ↗


The Ascanian line of Saxe-Wittenberg became extinct with the death of Elector Albert III ↗ in 1422, whereafter Emperor Sigismund ↗ bestowed the country and electoral dignity upon Margrave Frederick IV of Meissen ↗, who had been a loyal supporter in the Hussite Wars ↗. Late Albert's Ascanian relative Duke Eric V of Saxe-Lauenburg ↗ protested in vain. Frederick, now one of the seven Prince-electors, was a member of the House of Wettin ↗, which since 1089 had ruled over the adjacent Margraviate of Meissen ↗ up the Elbe river, established under Emperor Otto I ↗ in 965, and since 1242 also over the Landgraviate of Thuringia ↗. Thus, in 1423, Saxe-Wittenberg, the Margraviate of Meissen and Thuringia were united under one ruler ↗, and the unified territory .
gradually received the name of (Upper) Saxony (or simply '''Saxony''').

Leamington Spa



According to the Ordnance Survey maps the street name is Parade, no definite article. Murgatroyd49 (talk) 20:49, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
:And still, everybody in Leamington calls it "The Parade". Even if the article were not part of the name, in a sentence the article (in this case definitely lower case) has to be included. The article does this in each and every other occurence. Reverting the article back out in this one occurence is obviously wrong. Str1977 <sup>(talk)</sup> 21:46, 15 November 2023 (UTC)

Matthias Erzberger



Sorry for overdoing my revert when it came to the infobox. Your changes to his stint as minister without portfolio did have the correct info (although I had to make a change today to get the chancellors to display). But I am going to insist on President Friedrich Ebert - you're right that he wasn't minister president as the article originally said, but he was elected president by the National Assembly on 11 Feb 1919. Hope we're good now? GHStPaulMN (talk) 11:45, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
:When was Erzberger appointed chairman of the armistice commission? If after 11 Feb, then yes, it was under President Ebert. But it would be simultanously under Minister-President Scheidemann.
:My main point was that Ebert was never minister-president but served as Chancellor from the "abdication" of Wilhelm II until his own election as President. Str1977 <sup>(talk)</sup> 12:23, 6 May 2024 (UTC)

:You showed no reasoning behind your repeated reverting of my changes - and "unnecessary" is not a legitimate reasoning. Str1977 <sup>(talk)</sup> 16:12, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
::If you've been here 19 years you would know about: A) WP: BRD ↗, and B) not accusing someone of ownership just because they're undoing your edits. Unnecessary is legitimate, I can write "not an improvement" if you'd prefer but the same message is delivered. We also have a spoken version of the article on top of it being a Featured Article so changes should have a significant reasoning behind them. For example you moved content about casting of minor characters above main characters for no reason. That would not be an improvement. You keep saying that George was not spying on Lorraine despite him being outside her house peeping into a bedroom window and not being quite as pregnant as her mom, and changing the credit for Lorraine Baines McFly to Lorraine Baines/McFly, when noone uses a slash in a double surname, at least not in English. You can feel your edits were warranted and WP: BRD would tell you to take it to the talk page to discuss it and gain support, my opinion is they were negative for the article and so I restored it to it's agreed upon and supported version. That's not a reason to take it personally. EDIT: I can also see you've changed Lorraine's name on the character list to Lorraine Baines/McFly with a note saying she was never Baines McFly, and yet the official site says she was ↗. Darkwarriorblake (talk) 16:23, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
:::"not an improvement" is even worse. It amounts to no reason.
:::If you don't want to be accused of claiming OWNership, don't behave that way.
:::If it is really Lorraine, I am sure you can prove it.
:::The "double surname" doesn't exist. She is first called Baines, then McFly. The "official site" is no reliable source for that. Only the film is. Str1977 <sup>(talk)</sup> 16:48, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
:::: :/ I thought that would be the end of it but you're still claiming it's ownership to disagree with you and challenging me to prove things in the film.

House of the Dragon cast



Hi. Regarding your recent edits, I don't mind removing the titles from the characters to make things less convoluted (in fact I support it), but what I don't understand is why remove them from only some characters and not others? Surely the layout of the cast list should be consistent and either include titles for every character or include none.

Thanks. Cheezknight (talk) 22:15, 26 November 2025 (UTC)
:Dear {{ping|Cheezknight}},
:I removed all titles except that of King Viserys. I did not remove that because he is king his entire stint. It is not a title as such that convolutes matters but all these slash titles. They also lead to these annoying hidden comments telling editors what to add or not to add.
:If you insist, we can remove the "king" from Viserys as well. Str1977 <sup>(talk)</sup> 19:24, 28 November 2025 (UTC)
::I agree with you and take no issue with it. Considering an editor moved Cooke up the list again today, which is a recurring issue as the cast is in first-credited order, that comment might get readded at some point. Thanks for explaining. Cheezknight (talk) 00:48, 29 November 2025 (UTC)

You may be '''blocked from editing ↗ without further warning''' the next time you disrupt ↗ Wikipedia, as you did at :Tango in the Night ↗. <br />You are perilously close to breaching WP:3RR ↗ at this point. I've twice provided you a rationale for keeping the Elvie Presley link, but instead of appropriately disputing it on the talk page, you have chosen to engage in edit warring ↗. If you proceed in this manner, I will report your disruptive behaviour to administrators.<!-- Template:uw-generic4 --> Revirvlkodlaku (talk) 07:34, 8 February 2026 (UTC)
:The first time around, you merely asked "why?" and I responded. In your second revert your rationale was mostly "Not an improvement". And you still haven't provided nothing on the 2nd change I've made. Str1977 <sup>(talk)</sup> 16:03, 8 February 2026 (UTC)
::Firstly, in this edit ↗, you provided no explanation for the change you made, which is one strike against you. Then, when I reverted back ↗, I stated "Regardless of who wrote the song, it is known as an Elvis Presley song, and that matters." You completely ignored this argument and simply reverted back. That is two strikes against you, and you still haven't countered my main point: A song/single is not generally defined by who writes it but by who records/popularizes it, and this song is known as an Elvis track first and foremost. I think this is a sufficiently strong argument for retaining a mention of Elvis on the page in question. Unless you can counter that, you should restore it. Revirvlkodlaku (talk) 17:12, 8 February 2026 (UTC)
:::Firstly, you are misrepresenting what you wrote in the edit summaries for your 1st and 2nd revert. Secondly, it is not up to you to give out "strikes".
