This article is written in
British English, which has its own spelling conventions (colour, travelled, centre, defence, artefact, analyse) and some terms that are used in it may be different or absent from other
varieties of English. According to the
relevant style guide, this should not be changed without
broad consensus.
The title of this article is misleading as England was not his sole kingdom. Perhaps one of the regular editors would like to review that?

I'm wondering if the section on the Five Members should be summerised more and then linked to the article
Five Members which should have all the details? Currently, I do not any such link.

There are two links to that article in that section.

@
Celia Homeford, indeed there is already a link. Thanks for spotting that. But don't you think it is better to have the link to the main article as I did it and remove the other in-line link? This is common practice in the rest of the article where sections have their own page (Bishops' Wars, Irish Rebellion, Long Parliament). My thinking is that such sections should be broad summaries only, or relating to Charles part played in them obviously, and otherwise avoid details best left in their own articles. Thoughts?

@
DrKay, re
my change may I suggest that the inclusion of the names is superfluous to an article on the life of Charles I? The Five Members article can be easily followed by anyone who cares to find them. I left in Pym as he was the clear leader of the parliamentary opposition to Charles at the time, as referenced several times in the prior section. But I will grant that my first effort is a bit clumsy. How about keeping it simple?:
“On 3 January 1642, Charles directed Parliament to give up five specific members of the Commons - Pym included - on the grounds of high treason.”
@
DrKay Simplicity is lost. And I explained why Pym is mentioned. Anyway, it was just a suggestion based on the existence of a whole article on the 5 members topic to avoid duplication. I can easily live with it as is.

Martyrdom
Per
[1], all three articles are already linked from this one. Unsurprisingly, that's what I meant by '
repeated links'. Per
[2], it's already in the main body.

Oppose and
WP:SNOW close. It is well-established on Wikipedia that, where someone was a monarch of multiple countries, their title is that of the most important country. The same applies to move requests on his sons Charles II and James II/VII.

Not exactly, though. In some instances, no countries are shown at all.

Oppose and
WP:SNOW per PatGallacher. Charles I lived in England during his reign.
Векочел (

Oppose per
WP:SOVEREIGN: Where a monarch has reigned over a number of states, use the most commonly associated ordinal and state.

Oppose. Unnecessarily long. Unnecessary disambiguation. Use the more concise unambiguous title.

Comment Every monarch of England between 1542 and 1707 was also the
monarch of Ireland, why single him out? Every monarch of England between 1603 and 1707 was also the
monarch of Scotland.

Oppose. Shorter is generally better. No one will be confused. --

Oppose He was primarily associated with England; the same way
Christian VIII of Denmark was also King of Norway, but primarily associated with Denmark. The suggested title is also unnecessarily long. Keivan.fTalk 06:55, 17 February 2024 (UTC)reply
