Chateau Vert
Doesn’t Chateau Vert deserves its own page? We have Field of the Cloth of Gold, so why not this pageant? There’s no shortage of information- it happened Shrove Tuesday 1522, at York Palace, arranged by Cardinal Wolsey. Eight women dressed as Beauty, Honour, Perseverance, Kindness, Constance, Bounty, Mercy, and Pity. Anne was Perseverance, Mary was Kindness. They were guarded by eight boys who represented Danger, Disdain, Jealousy, Vindictiveness, Scorn, Malebouche and Strangeness. Eight men who were dressed as Amoress, Nobleness, Youth, Attendance, Loyalty, Pleasure, Gentleness and Liberty asked to free the ladies from a tin foil castle. Henry refused, and so the men stormed it. Then, a banquet with dancing. So why can’t Chateau Vert have its own page? We know lots about it! Oric22 (talk) 07:12, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The Field of the Cloth of Gold had international political significance, which is hardly the case with the York Palace event, which was just a court entertainment. If you believe there is enough sourced material there is nothing to stop you initiating a page on it.Sbishop (talk) 07:39, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I'm going to remove that link; Josephine Wilkinson states that these were envoys from Charles, sent over for negotiations relating to his betrothal to Princess Mary, rather than the regular Spanish ambassador.[1]

Firstly, apologies for messing up the Harvard referencing. The titles in the Bibliography are wrong: Ives's 1986 and 2004 editions are significantly different and the citations need to be sorted—shouldn't be too difficult as most will be to the 2004 edition. There has been a maintenance tag requesting this for three years. Watch this space over the next couple of days.--AntientNestor (talk) 17:35, 10 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
"Anne Boleyn (/ˈbʊlɪn, bʊˈlɪn/;[7][8][9] c. 1501 or 1507 – 19 May 1536) was Queen of England from …" is the opening sentence, so we are clear that she WAS Queen for a period. History refers to ALL of Henry's wives mainly by their 'maiden' names - or titles for Catherine of Aragon, presumably for reasons of clarity. There is no reason why we could not call her 'Queen Anne' for the period she held that title.Pincrete (talk) 07:41, 5 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Many Queen Consorts tend to be referred to by their titles or maiden names - Joan of Navarre, Catherine of Valois, Margaret of Anjou, Elizabeth Woodville, Anne Neville, Elizabeth of York, Catherine of Aragon, Anne of Cleves, Anne of Denmark - sometimes with "Queen" added, but often without. In that there have been a number of Queen Consorts called Anne (including two married to Henry VIII), plus one Queen Regnant, calling her Anne Boleyn makes it clear which Queen Anne is referred to.
