Every name has been redlinked. Rather than de-link myself, I'd rather some more competent editor remove all but the handful that may become articles in the near future. Wikipedia is not a Catalan prosopography. --Wetman (talk) 04:02, 27 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I removed two redlinks that are probably worthless. (I can't remember why I created them in the first place.) I left the bishop of Barcelona and count of Cerdagne, since they should become articles. Since the viscounts were somewhat like mayors or maybe more important, I left them in since the modern mayors of Barcelona seem to have notability enough. I wouldn't have a fit if they were removed, though there is enough information out there for articles. Srnec (talk) 18:45, 27 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Seems good to me. Yes,we aren't a prosopography, but there's usually something can be said about 11th century counts, viscounts, and bishops. Better a bit too many red links than not enough in my humble opinion. Angus McLellan (Talk) 18:49, 27 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
