LOOKING FOR A RELIABLE SROUCE ON JOAN I OF NAPLES:
I had the same thoughts regarding the brothel. In general, I would like to find a very good scholarly work on the Angevin Family in Naples during this period, or on Joan I of Naples. I would really like to track down the correspondence of Joan of Naples to the Pope. I am sure that many actual documents were lost in WWII, but diplomatic editions must exist. I will write again as soon as I find anything.

The correct name should be "Joanna" as is listed in all references and documents of antiquity that I am familiar with for this queen. She also had several other titles some inherited by way of marriage.
. While this is not a bad article on Queen Joanna I of Napples, it lacks much important data on her life that well supported by historical evidences and documentation She was a very religious person and while it is true she did not always like the man, she respected his calling as Pope and was a great aid to the papacy during her many years of reign. During this time there were in fact several different popes, and a great controversy involving the rightful calling of one, due to threats made on the cardinals. Joanna helped to correct the error of the wrong man stepping into the robes of the pope. To all the other Popes, She was a great support to the them and his inner circle. She had personal interaction with the popes by way of visits and letters. She gave suggestions and support, great amounts of financial aid and donations especially in the Popes time of need. Along with this she also provided military aid, even transportation via her ships and men to help get the Pope out of Rome a few problem times. She restationed Pope in France possibly more than once hoping to move the church headquarters ther.
Her relationships with her family, especially that of her husbands is sketchy in your work, and important pieces of her history. supporting data is missing, but does exist. Her deep concern to produce an heir was paramount and yet with great diplomacy she did many great works during her reighn during those dark ages when horrible plagues, poverty, and evil pursued. She was noted for helping the people of her country as well as the building of churches. One such church or rather monestary she commissioned is still standing today and now used as a museum of fine arts and history as well as performances. This is the Certosa of Capi, on the isle of Capri. Queen Joanna commissioned San Giacomo Arcucci as architect, a man also noted as being one of her close footmen or ambassadors. A beautiful fresco still exists in an arched alcove above the Certosa chapel doors. It shows a beautiful Queen Joanna kneeling on the right side of the Madonna sitting on a grand throne, and holding a standing Christ child. To the Holy Family's left kneels San Giacomo Arcucci, extending a model like Certosa to The Mother and Child for acceptance. Around the throne are also two saints, I believe both James and John, and above them all is the Holy Spirit as well as angels.
My interests and research in these matters have been raised due to the fact that I am a direct ancestor of San Giacomo Arcucci, who was bequeathed the Isle of Capri by his queen for his good works which included the Certosa. While I am not a historian proper, I would be happy to be of assistance in helping to supply documentation and other needs to bring this page up to date. Today I write all this from my iPad, which makes it hard for me to copy and paste, flip from one screen to another with out losing data on this page. Working from my computer would be much easier, but is not possible right now. I felt it important however, to make these lengthybnotations as tey are, hoping to bring interest in making coections and enhancing this page. If not done today i feared i would later forget. Please forgive my bloopers and if I have not followed protocol. Your details of protocol etc. Are extremely lengthy and difficult to follow. I do enjoy the access to Wikipedia and the valuable information it supplies for free. Thank you for this wonderful service. Having quality and true information is of extreme importance in the continuation of wikipedia. Thank you, Smilenhappy ( talk) 18:39, 1 February 2012 (UTC)

Quote:
This wedding was opposed by her former brother-in-law and Margaret's stepfather Philip II, Prince of Taranto; when he died in November 1374, he bequeathed his claims to his brother-in-law Francis of Baux, Duke of Andria, and his son James. François laid claim by force the property of the deceased, who had been reverted to the crown. Joanna then confiscated his property by grounds of lèse-majesté on 8 April 1374.
Does it mean that Joanna cofiscated François' property prior to Philip's death? If Philip lived, what is "the deceased" here referred to?—— Heinrich ⅩⅦ von Bayern ( talk) 08:39, 7 January 2015 (UTC)

The flow of this article is really bad. It's difficult to read and for me at least, it's not clear. I'm confused and what is happening when and where. The are major sourcing issues. Pretty much all of the paragraphs have no citations at all, whereas there should be citations at the end of every sentence really. It makes it look like a lot of it is [{WP:OR]]. Formatting wise, there are so many breaks and pauses because the paragraphs are so short, one or two sentences in a lot of cases. Paragraphs should be four of five sentences long. It makes the entire article look disjointed and unnecessarily long. The article length could be reduced by half if it was just formatted properly paragraph wise, then a load of white and blank space could be removed. Also, there are far too many sub sections and sub-sub sections, and they are really short. There is no need here for a section within a sub section within a section. Keep sub sections to a minimum if possible, because otherwise it ends up having so many bolded section titles and it's disjointing.
I've stopped reviewing half way through the Murder of Andrew of Hungary of section because there are just so many issues, a lot of them occur throughout the article. This article needs major work. It definitely has the information and scope to be a great article, but it is nowhere hear there yet. I really do think you should use Elizabeth I of England, which is an FA, as a guide to formatting and structuring. When you are done, I would recommend listing it for a Peer Review, so that other editors (who may or may not have an interest in royal or historical figures), can help you with suggestions and ideas further. Until then, I'm afraid I'm failing the article on the grounds of inefficient sourcing, poor formatting, awkward structure and lack of clarity. I wish you luck with it though, it has great potential. — ₳aron 17:41, 7 March 2015 (UTC)
Hey all, I just realized that this article references multiple birth dates for Joanna (1325,1326,1327 and even 1328). Do you guys have any educated guesses which is the correct one?
