Move to "Evangelical Church of Kurhessen-Waldeck"
[edit]The partial "translation" of the geographical name Kurhessen-Waldeck is an overtranslation; it's inappropriate here. The Electorate of Hesse ended for all practical purposes in 1866, long before the formation of Kurhessen-Waldeck; at that point the name only designates a Prussian province, not an Electorate of the Holy Roman Empire. "Kurhessen" is just a part of Hesse historically associated with the Hessian Electorate. (Also, "Hesse Electorate" is not very English. English would be something like "the Electorate of Hesse" or the "Hessian Electorate"; or maybe it was the Grand Duchy of Hesse under the Elector Duke so-and-so.)

- The Grand Duchy of Hesse was even a separate state and has nothing to do with this article or the Electorate of Hesse. In most other respects I share the opinion of User Wegesrand. The translation as done here is full of mistakes:
- "Evangelical" contains a political connotation which does not exist in the German expression of "evangelisch". "Protestant" would be nearer to the meaning.
- "Hesse Electorate" should be translated with "Electorate of Hesse"
- As user Wegesrand already mentioned the "Hesse Electorate" (German: Kurfürstentum Hessen) doesen't mean the state which vanished into Prussia in 1866 but the Prussian Province of Kurhessen.
- So, the Lemma should be the proper name of the institution, Evangelische Kirche von Kurhessen-Waldeck, followed in brackets by "Protestant Church of Kurhessen-Waldeck". -- Reinhard Dietrich (talk)
