Rename the article from 'Marie Antoinette' to Marie Antoinette of Austria. She was royal and just baptismal names isn't how royalty is represented. 'Of Austria' is included in many other pages, such as in the French and Spanish articles. ImperialFabrics (talk) 01:50, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Add the name of painter of her portrait, in the infobox. 174.94.54.119 (talk) 20:52, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not impartial
The whole thing reads like a eulogy. Numerous times emotional sentiment has been shoehorned in. It's not your job to exonerate her or plead her innocence or take a one sided stance.
“the queen was very majestic and charismatic in spite of the fact that she gained a lot of weight over the years due to her many pregnancies.”
So being “majestic” and “charismatic” should not be expected if you weigh a little bit more??? 100.16.159.231 (talk) 22:44, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
