Pretenders to the German throne[edit]

The article does not have additional value to seperate it from pretender. Pevernagie (talk) 17:33, 22 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

also the article contained and still contains numerous factual errors, king Albert II of Belgium is not a German pretender, and the title of the article makes it appear as if the heads of the different German houses are all pretender to the German throne, whereas in reality they are not all claiming the German imperial throne, but the throne of one of the many kingdoms and duchies that were part of the German Empire.

Redirect to House of Hohenzollern where the post-1918 pretenders are listed and linked. As indicated by Pevernagie, the non-Hohenzollern claimants are pretenders to the thrones of other German-speaking territories, not to the German imperial throne. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 01:48, 23 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. None of the living so called pretenders claims actually (or did claim) any throne in Germany. It is more like a "List of people who may claim a German thron, if they wish to". --jergen (talk) 08:17, 23 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
