Heads up

[edit]

Having written this entry I have interlinked it with the Spanish-language article “Conspiración golpista de 1936”, though I am not sure is the right thing to do.

The Spanish-language entry seems to be about all sorts of different right-wing attempts developing during the lifetime of the Second Republic, be it civilian or military and be it in 1932 or 1936, which are bundled together into one process. In turn, the entry I have written is about the military conspiracy only (in WP there is e.g. a separate entry on the Carlist conspiracy of 1936), and about the conspiracy which developed in 1936 only. I think it is pretty arbitrary and rather unusual, not really sustained in historiography, to dump all sorts of right-wing plots of 1931-1936 into one “conspiracy”. I find this perspective controversial, to say the least.

However, I have concluded that eventually someone would come and link the two articles anyway, and that having “my” entry linked to the Spanish one might increase readership. So, this is to provide a heads-up and sort of explanation in case you read both Spanish-language and English-language versions and discover they are vastly different. --Hh1718 (talk) 14:15, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
