Subject's title is just an appendage and so doesn't belong in the Wikisource title
[edit]Normally I would say the small-caps portion of the article header should be included in the Wikisource title, but here it just seems an appendage: it doesn't modify the subject's last name: "Görtz, Georg Heinrich von, Baron von Schlitz" straightens out to "Georg Heinrich von Görtz, Baron von Schlitz" whereas with someone like "Gyllenstjerna, Johan, Count" it straightens out to "Johan, Count Gyllenstjerna," so it seems more essential, and therefore appropriate to include it in the Wikisource title for the article. So I think the current Wikisource title, "Görtz, Georg Heinrich von," is appropriate in this case. Bob Burkhardt (talk) 17:29, 24 August 2017 (UTC)
