I have reverted Gerona back to Girona (someone had decided to change to the former without no explanation). Girona is the original catalan name, while Gerona is a spanish version. Girona is the only official name nowadays and I see no reason why an English encyclopedia should use a translation of a name into Spanish instead. 82.41.76.211 09:49, 10 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Because the original name of the Roman citadel is Gerunda, it seems only logical that the more proper Spanish name of Gerona (with "e") should be used here. The proper English term is, according to the OED, "Gerona." 22:47, 12 June 2005 (UTC -5)
Bibliotecario en Cataluña cambia y corrige algunos detalles del texto para que la mayoría del mundo angloparlante e hispanohablante entienda mejor. Citados: Diccionario Moliner, Enciclopedia Historia Española, Diccionario Merriam-Webster, New York Times. El catalán y la denominación "Girona" no están de acuerdo con el uso mundial.

Some of the most beautiful women in the world are from Girona. (Anonymous)

[edit] "...the fourteen original countships of Catalonia..."
The precision afforded by the number fourteen makes a very impressive statement. Barcelona, Ausona, Urgel, Ampurdán, Perelada, Besalú, Gerona... are there exactly seven more? If there are, that would make a useful subsection at Catalonia. --Wetman 11:11, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] St. Maximus
St. Maximus redirects to quite another Saint Maximus. This Saint Maximus being imaginary, I'm unable to repair the confusion. --Wetman 18:09, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Wrong names
Somebody are writing all the names (people and sites) with a wrong orthography. Vilallonga 18:50, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Girona not Gerona
I have reverted almost all Geronas to Girona again. Some people think that catalan shouldn't exists since Catalonia is in Spain.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Iru9k (talk • contribs) 11:11, 10 April 2007 (UTC).
[edit] More jews?
I've been reading and it seems like many other important jews were born in Girona, and should be worth mentioning.
[edit] Webs
Recently 217.126.2.180 is adding some external links which imho don't satisfy the conditions of WP:EL. This is not a directory and we must control that the external links section contains just the necessary links.--Xtv - (my talk) - (que dius que què?) 19:10, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] spelling
Is the spanish spelling correct? I thought that in spanish "g" is always pronounced as in "get". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.165.6.168 (talk) 17:17, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
