Royalty

Concerning the story about the wedding of the Duke & Duchess of Sussex. Harry's father (Charles) is not the heir to the throne. He's the heir-apparent to the throne. GoodDay (talk) 21:54, 31 January 2019 (UTC)

Corrected, thanks. — JFG ^talk 02:16, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

Isn't heir apparent a kind of heir? In other words, saying "heir" is correct but less precise? ☆ Bri (talk) 03:14, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

Though it might seem weird to most. The heir in this situation is Queen Elizabeth II. Legally, an 'heir' is the person who has the position, where as an 'heir apparent' is a person who will eventually have the position. GoodDay (talk) 17:56, 2 February 2019 (UTC)

Another boo boo. British royals ability to marry Catholics, took effect in 2015, not 2013. GoodDay (talk) 18:00, 2 February 2019 (UTC)

Great summary

Hey authors of this report - great job. PMG (talk) 12:39, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

Elizabeth II can't change the succession

With all due respect to the commentator at the Elizabeth II entry. The Queen can't replace Charles with William as next-in-line. That decision belongs 'soley' to the UK & 15 other Parliaments. GoodDay (talk) 22:25, 2 February 2019 (UTC)

• This report is the placebo I needed to see today. You guys are incredibly funny. Hey I found another image of death for the next issue.
