Have deleted the category claiming Taube is of German descent, as there is no reference either here or at the Swedish Wikipedia article.--Technopat (talk) 17:13, 28 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Taube family, as many others belonging to the Swedish nobility, is of German origin. If you understand Swedish (as I do), I suggest that you read this article about the Taube family in the Swedish Wikipedia: http://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taube . To be more precise, the family is originally from Westphalia. Monegasque (talk) 09:36, 29 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Have double-checked the Wikipedia articles on both Taube senior & junior in Swedish, and no mention is made of what you say on either of them. What is more, neither page has the category you added & which I deleted. The general article on the Taube surname mentions them, but is also unreferenced. I am not doubting what you say, I'm just saying it has to be referenced. --Technopat (talk) 10:54, 29 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
