Why, Frederick I?

Seeing as Fred is the 'only' King Frederick of Sweden; why isn't the article called Frederick of Sweden. GoodDay (talk) 23:43, 9 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A very good question. How about a move request? He was (legitimately) Fredrrick I of Hesse-Cassel, but not of Sweden. SergeWoodzing (talk) 14:42, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
He used the ordinal, and so should we, regardless of the non-existence of any other kings of Sweden named Frederick. john k (talk) 02:09, 1 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Prince consort?

Someone has recently added a box showing that Frederick officially was "Prince consort" while his wife was head of state 1718-20. Was he ever? What is the source for such an assertion? SergeWoodzing (talk)

Timeline issue

This page lists the death and end of reign of Frederick I as 5 April 1751. However, the reign of his successor Adolf Frederick begins the previous month 25 March 1751. Was there really overlap? ChrisDailey (talk) 15:29, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

As it's the same day in different calendars, that looks like the difference between the old and new calendars.
