On 2 March 2024, it was proposed that this article be moved to Alfonso VIII. The result of the discussion was not moved.

Why is he in the Anjou category? SyP 08:44, 24 June 2007 (UTC) reply

according to what i have computed, this Alfonso was the fourth king in Castile to be named "Alfonso". Thus i'm afraid the name "Alfonso VIII of Castile" is a mistake. Please have a look and tell me your conclusions. should we call him Alfonso IV of Castile ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.37.30.13 ( talk) 14:26, 28 May 2012 (UTC) = the number VIII comes from Leon and Galicia. reply

I wonder what you exactly mean with what the article says as "he begun the domination of Castile over Leon". If you can say any detail of that, or if you have any real proof of it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.153.50.85 ( talk) 14:06, 9 June 2013 (UTC) reply

For the notes (1) the title of the book correctly should be Jews, Visigoths & Muslims in Medieval Spain. Cooperation & Conflict. 76.250.32.6 ( talk) 15:01, 26 April 2014 (UTC) reply
