Names diff

They're double names. Therequiembellishere (talk) 22:00, 15 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If the list is limited to family names, this should be for all people listed, except when there are two persons with the same family name (Celio).

Specifically, for Johann Jakob Scherer, his family name (surname) is Scherer. His given names are Johann Jakob, which could be translated as "John Jacob", like John Jacob Astor's. "von Moos" is correct, as von is generally considered part of the family name. -- User:Docu

I know, I realised that and moved it. Therequiembellishere (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 15:45, 16 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Naming confusion

Many articles contain {{Swiss Presidents}} as

• 03:25, 10 January 2008 user:Docu (Talk | contribs) m (moved Template:Swiss Presidents to Template:Presidents of the Swiss Confederation) (undo)

Thus, the articles should be updated to {{Presidents of the Swiss Confederation}} - or the move should be reverted.

Also, the "v • d • e" links in the template were broken, but this is now fixed [1].

Special:WhatLinksHere/Eduard_Müller still shows many links, even though the template was edited a week ago to link to the proper Swiss politician article. Seems that a database is rather slow with updates. Possibly connected with the improper naming and redirect of the template, as these links are not treated as Wikipedia:Transclusions.-- Matthead  Discuß   10:50, 25 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
