This article has been checked against the following criteria for B-class status:
Just how does one expand or enlarge the painting of Martin of Aragon?
I find it common on Wikipedia, to see small paintings or photos, etc., accompaning the article, but on most occasions they will not automatically enlarge as is promised!

In 1410, when Martin died, apparently of a lethal combination of
serious indigestion and uncontrollable laughter, no successor had been
properly designated, initiating a crisis of succession
appears like this
apparently from a lethal combination of indigestion and uncontrollable laughter[3]

Oppose. All the Iberian language Wikipedias use "Martin I" because it is the Iberian custom. They also refer to
Queen Victoria as "Victoria I". How did you possibly conclude that only 61 out of 11,800 results refer to the King? Such a conclusion is obviously wrong, so I am not convinced that the move would be helpful.

Oppose You won't find him referred to as "Martin I" in older Spanish books but simply "el-rey D. Martin de Aragon". However, as he was also King of Sicily, an ordinal is sometimes included to clarify in the longer phrase "Martin I of Aragon/II of Sicily".

Oppose Keep It Simple Stupid, although most Iberian language Wikipedias do have him at equivalents of "Martin I of Aragon", the Catalan Wikipedia has him at "Martin the Humane", so this isn't clear cut.

If there were a consensus to move away from this title, I would support "Martin the Humane". The use of nicknames for the Catalan monarch is not uncommon to avoid having to chose between an Aragonese or Barcelonan numbering, although that's not relevant in Martin's case, there is the issue of Aragonese versus Sicilian numbering.
