Catholic Monarch → Catholic Majesty – The current usage of the plural term "Catholic Monarchs" redirects to the page on Ferdinand and Isabella, but when left singular "Catholic Monarch" confusingly redirects to this page. Since it is common to use the singular form when referring to either Ferdinand or Isabella individually, e.g. "Columbus wrote to the Catholic monarch Ferdinand", "Catholic monarch" should also redirect to the "Ferdinand and Isabella" article. Moreover, the content of the current "Catholic Monarch" article seems very dubious and unreferenced (e.g. it asserts that the term "Catholic monarch" was bestowed by the Church upon the rulers of Belgium and Luxembourg, which I cannot find backing for elsewhere). To my knowledge, the "Catholic" title is exclusive to the rulers of Spain. The common practice is to use "Catholic Majesty" to refer to other Spanish kings, and restrict "Catholic Monarch" to only refer to Ferdinand and Isabella. This should be done here. Catholic Monarch article should be renamed Catholic Majesty (or deleted altogether) and Catholic Monarch redirected to Catholic Monarchs. Walrasiad (talk) 15:26, 16 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Britannica`s entry on "Catholic Monarchs" is about Ferdinand and Isabella. As for the singular "Catholic monarch", I googled around and I didn't this see anyone giving this phrase an idiomatic meaning. It's just a monarch who happens to be Catholic.

Date of Spanish title

Since Spain didn't exist in the 1460s, its nonextant monarch could hardly have been granted a title at that time. Did the original editor mean Leon? Castile? Aragon? or a different decade? — LlywelynII 15:09, 25 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Spelling/move

My Latin is pretty rusty, but surely this should be Rex catholicissimus? Awien (talk) 13:19, 19 February 2013 (UTC) I just googled Rex catholicissimus, which is indeed the form used in all the documents in Latin in the first couple of pages of results. And checked the formation of the Latin superlative, which is indeed -issimus (or -illimus or -errimus), never -ismus. Unless someone comes up with a good source for the present title, I'm going to move the page tomorrow. Awien (talk) 20:29, 19 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
