Lots of the Catalan names used are Spanished. I'll adapt them into Catalan following the next list of bishops of Urgell: http://www.bisbaturgell.org/bisbat_urgell/episcopologi.htm Llull 21:42, 23 Jul 2004 (UTC)

It's probably helpful to add both. --- User:Docu
No, this is a nonsense. Why should we add the names translated from Catalan to an other language that is no the language of this Wikipedia? I used the same names that use the Urgell bishopric. Which is the criteria used for the change? Llull 09:05, 21 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Only an example. The first name. If you search Pedro d'Urg in Google (translated from Catalan to Spanish without reason) you'll get 8 results, and if you search "Pere d'Urg" you'll find 4.050 results. Llull 09:30, 21 Aug 2004 (UTC)

I have restored an old version of the article, because I think is not correct tu write the names of the bishop of Urgell in castillan, see: [1]

[edit] Boris I

Since this nonsense is likely to come up again and again: "Boris I" never ruled Andorra. This was an adventurer who got himself into some government positions in Andorra, but ultimately was expelled around May 1934, and thereafter never managed to enter Andorra again. In July 1934, from Urgel, he declared himself sovereign prince of Andorra and declared war on the bishop of Urgel, and the only effect of this was that he was arrested by Spanish police and, in November 1934, expelled from Spain. This can be verified by reading actual newspapers from the time as opposed to the distortions that may be found on the Web. NoPuzzleStranger 00:03, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Roderic de Borja i Escriva` was bishop of Urgell and ex officio Co-Prince of Andorra 1467-1472, then bishop of Barcelona from 1472. He is NOT identical with his younger contemporary, Roderic de Borja y Borja (Rodrigo de Borja y Borja), archbishop of Valencia and later Pope Alexander VI. The confusion of these two members of the Borja family of Xa'tiva is part of a more general confusion regarding names and relationships in this clan.

[edit] Arms of Co-Prince under Bonaparte

It is incorrect to show the Bonaparte family's private arms as minor Corsican nobility as the arms of the Co-Prince under the Empire, or to refer to the Empire as the House of Bonaparte. Under the First and Second Empires (Napoleon I and III) the correct arms of the Co-Prince were the Imperial arms of France, as shown in your article at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_French_Empire.
