[edit]

Is there any sense to name this "Catherine Valois" since there already is a princess called Catherine of Valois and even in the Frech Wikipedia the name is "Catherine de France" and she's seperated from the others named in the same way by using years of her life (1422-1446). This kind of name for the article will cause confusion.

Nosense abaut the year of birth,

[edit]

As much as a book says that he was born in 1428, this is impossible. According to the article by his sister Radegunda, from this same Wiki, his birth is recorded in August of that year. In that source it is not indicated that she was a twin birth, only the birth of a princess (Radegunda) is reported. She then could not be born with four months, in that year, by force she had to be later, surely in 1430/1, since another brother was born in 1432. 90.94.49.136 (talk) 19:57, 31 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Catherine was a she, not a he, and the source states she was born in 1428, so that is what is written in her article. We can not decide for ourselves her date of birth, only reliable sources can decide that.
As for Radegunda, if you check Charles_VII_of_France#Children, Radegunda's year of birth is contested between two different years(1425 or August 1428), both supported by references. We, as editors, can only write what reliable sources state, not what we want or what we think. --Kansas Bear (talk) 20:42, 31 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the clarification, but I am not an English speaker and I need to use the translator when I have to express myself in greater length. It is that, then, if 1428 is considered valid as the date of birth, it contradicts the source (from the same treasurer of Queen María) that Radegunda was born in August of that year. Both events cannot occur at the same time since nobody says they are twins, and since the older sister is born in August, there is no room for a full-term birth in that same year, of another princess. So if Catherine was born in 1428, it excludes Radegunde being born in that year, too. So if it is possible that Radegunda was born in August 1428, a later date for Catherina should also be accepted.
