It seems like a lot of the information from the Life section came from somewhere other than the source cited. @Taung Tan: Is there another source besides Allgemeine Deutsche Biographie where it comes from? Cielquiparle (talk) 06:56, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The only thing that that reference is supporting which isn't actually in the Allgemeine Deutsche Biographie is the claim that Barbara came back with her husband in 1623 and then fled the second time, rather than remaining in Stuttgart. What else seems unsupported, Cielquiparle? Furius (talk) 13:35, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not seeing the Karlsburg Castle in Durlach. Also, previous king's abdication date is given as April on the article page, but ADB focuses on the start of his reign in May. Perhaps both are true, but it suggests the sourcing came from elsewhere. Still looking at the Ukranian version to see if we can identify the actual source(s).

I think that the month difference might mean April in the Julian Calendar (which Baden-Durlach used until 1699) and May in the Gregorian calendar, but we should follow reliable sources: Michael Roth: Die Abdankung Markgrafs Georg Friedrichs von Baden-Durlach. Ein Fürst im Unruhestand. In: Susan Richter, Dirk Dirbach (Hrsg.): Thronverzicht: die Abdankung in Monarchien vom Mittelalter bis in die Neuzeit. Böhlau 2010, ISBN 978-3-412-20535-5, S. 191–213 (books.google.de), which is entirely about the abdication, apparently gives the date as "April. Karlsburg Castle might be sourced from elsewhere or have been assumed because it was the main residence of the margraves at this point. I don't have a source confirming it.

The thing is, I actually found information in a reliable source about a different castle! But I will work it in once we piece together the facts and how they fit together (or don't). (Seems like they were moving around a lot.) Cielquiparle (talk) 13:14, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
This is great work! Furius (talk) 17:59, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
