[edit] Bias

This page is strongly biased by the writer's political orientation. The anti-catalanism is a very serious matter to many people living in and outside Spain and it deserves to be treated from a more impartial perspective.

I agree that the article content as such was too biased to the right. However the name anti-catalanism is too biased in favour of catalan nationalism. Anyone who is against positions held by catalanist parties can be unfairly deemed anticatalan according to this definition.

Actually I have to disagree with myself there. Anticatalanism is definitely a political reality in Spain.--Burgas00 23:20, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] What's the point

What's the point of creating an article named "anti-catalanism" (and the redirection catalanophobia) and reducing it to anti-catalannationalism? It may be big or small or not event exist but writing an article about hatred towards everything catalan is not pandering to catalan nationalism.

An encyclopedia must deal with facts, and therefore all its entries must be based on objective facts, or on a balanced set of authoritative quotations. I agree that the whole entry should be removed. It amounts to political propaganda. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Polifemo (talk • contribs) 15:19, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

Ditto to both. added some tags. --MauritiusXXVII (Aut Doce, Aut Disce, Aut Discede!) 23:08, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Changes

This article currently doen't respect the neutral point of view policy, lacks verifiability, and it's an original research. And "these policies determine the type and quality of material that is acceptable in Wikipedia articles". Talking plain, this article is a real bullshit. We need delete it or rewrite it. I've erased the discrimination tag (senseless, if we cant verify the content). I'll try to search some reliable sources and rewrite it with a minimums. And we need another one about anti-espanyolisme (two sides of the same coin). --Owdki talk 17:30, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
