[edit] Naming convention for titles of plays in separate articles

Hello all. This pages doesn't appear to be very active, but I thought I'd ask a question anyhow.

Having grouped Lorca under the category Modernist Drama, Theatre and Performance, I've noticed that there doesn't appear to be a subcategory for him; either for the Category of Plays by Nationality/Spanish plays or for Plays by author/Federico Garcia Lorca plays. So I've decided to create the relevant pages, but have now noticed that the separate articles on Lorca's plays do not appear to conform to the Wiki standard of naming articles that are titles of plays by non-English-speaking dramatists in their most-commonly-used English translation, rather than their original title. Is there a reason for this? Thanks, DionysosProteus 19:50, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Final return to Granada

>>> When war broke out in 1936, García Lorca left Madrid for Granada

This is a plain mistake. Everybody interested in García Lorca knows (should know) that he left Madrid just after José Calvo Sotelo murder (July 13, 1936) but before the begining of the Spanish Civil War (July 18, 1936). Most precissely on July 15.

I will fix this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.42.232.175 (talk) 16:34, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Died

I think that It is better to say simply that he died in the Spanish Civil War, it's not necessary to write that decree killed it, is of badly taste.--85.152.177.217 (talk) 17:52, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
