Préfecture of Pas-de-Calais

There is a little problem, because Calais is cited as the préfecture of the Pas-de-Calais département in the list below. It is Arras actually. But I don't know how it can be changed... --unsigned by 90.7.8.151 at 16:42, 16 December 2006

This seems to be fixed. I'm marking it as

Done. --BjKa (talk) 08:28, 15 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Churches

There has been some activity on the page recently regarding the Abbey and the old pre-Revolutionary Cathedral; the two were not the same and were built on sites on opposite sides of town. (The old Cathedral was somewhere west of the Baudimont neighborhood; the new Cathedral is near the Prefecture.) It is therefore completely consistent to say that the Cathedral was demolished in the Revolution and that the Abbey was dismantled at another time. --Hubacelgrand 23:24, 18 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Who is Saint Innocent?

Arras#Before the Middle Ages mentions a Saint Innocent, but none of the 5 people mentioned in the disambiguation page Saint Innocent seem to fit the description. Who was this Saint Innocent? Anthony Appleyard (talk) 05:21, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
