[edit] Obsolete
Didn't it lost officiality after the transition to democracy?
---NO, it didn't. SOURCE * Comarca del Gran Bilbao. It's official, from the Biscay Government (Bizkaiko Foru Aldundia]. It's one of Biscay's official regions. It's not a political entity, but an organizational one for transport, economy and regeneration plans.David 13:53, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] External links
I have removed links created by user 83.213.42.181, they do not belong in this article, it's all right to place them in each town's article but not here. On top of that, the very same links were placed in Biscay...this is suspectfull...I have checked the linked pages and they look very commercial to me. Maybe it's a case of spam. If it is not the case, I request the anonymous user to respond here, if he doesn't I will have to remove the only link left in Portugalete. Otherwise, you can place the other links in Barakaldo and Santurtzi. David 13:36, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Shouldn't it be moved to 'Greater Bilbao'?
I say because Gran Bilbao (es) and Bilbo Haundia (eu) are co-official, both meaning Greater Bilbao. Also for the sake of clarity in English, as has been done with Biscay, etc., using the English name when it exists. --Sugaar 15:49, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
- Absolutely, and it's well done! Forgive my past newbie errors ;) David 11:58, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
