Put your text for the new page here. The king was married to princess Frederike of Baden. He had five children with her. He was an extraordinary enemy to emperor Napoleon of France. Gustav IV and his son, Gustav prince of Vasa, are buried in the church on Riddarholmen in Stockholm in the same tomb with his father, mother, uncle and grandfather.
Can anyone find a picture to put in this article?
In the politics section, the last sentence proclaims that "Gustav was crowned with bajs." In swedish bajs means shit. I find it very unlikely that that was the case, since I do not know of any english word with the same spelling I can only guess that it's vandalism or a freudian slip in the typing process... Somewone eho know how he was crowned or knows how to revert changes should take care of it... GBH
Where in the world did the name "Gustav" come from for this monarch (and earlier swedish monarchs of the same name?) In English, these rulers were traditionally known by the Latinized form "Gustavus." In Swedish, as I understand it, they are "Gustaf" - certainly this is how the same name in the name of the current king is usually rendered. "Gustav," as far as I can tell, appears only in wikipedia. It is not the traditional English form, and it isn't the Swedish form. Where did it come from? Why do we use it? This ought to be at either Gustavus IV Adolphus of Sweden or Gustaf IV Adolf of Sweden. I'd tend towards the former. john k 21:24, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. — RMCD bot 11:16, 9 June 2020 (UTC)
Aside from the extraordinarily rude edit summary here, Gustav IV Adolf was physically overpowered and locked up by officers and subsequently forced to abdicate by the Riksdag. The wording was, and still is, wrong. I'll be correcting it again unless someone can come up with a good reason for us to mislead readers. G4A was not deposed, removed from office, by army officers.

Several coups and coup attempts were carried out by military officers down to the deposition of Gustav IV Adolf in 1809.
