Philip I Rubens → Philip Rubens – Subject is not listed with a numeral in Biographie Nationale de Belgique or other reliable sources (e.g. Mark Morford, Stoics and Neostoics: Rubens and the Circle of Lipsius). Page titled Philip Rubens already exists as a redirect to this, necessitating admin intervention for move to take place. Andreas Philopater ( talk) 21:54, 17 March 2017 (UTC)
While art historians writing in English do often (although not always) use "Flemish" for people, methods and styles from the Southern Netherlands (including Mons, Lille, etc.), it is not so much used in general history as it is rather inexact. These days its use is also complicated by the fact that "Flemish" often means "from or to do with the current Flemish Region", which is entirely anachronistic. It is also a magnet for ideologues of various stripes, while "Low Countries" is accurate and utterly uncontroversial. If there are reliable sources in English that call Philip Rubens "Flemish", please cite them. -- Andreas Philopater ( talk) 13:35, 29 September 2020 (UTC)
