Although George IV is the best known such prince, given that we are an international encyclopedia I question if we can treat him as the primary meaning, and as a general rule we should avoid attaching decisive importance to such differences in capitalization. I suggest this should be a redirect to Prince regent. PatGallacher (talk) 14:05, 24 October 2014 (UTC)
- It may be an international encyclopaedia, but in English language reliable sources, an unqualified mention of the Prince Regent overwhelmingly means the man who would become George IV of England. A whole era is named after him (Regency) no other prince regent has an era so named. We should follow usage in reliable sources.
