[edit] "Emilius, count of Laon"

..."(who is not otherwise attested)": My impression is that "count of Laon" is an anachronism, introduced by a chronicler. Isn't "count of Laon" actually a later Merovingian title, of the 7th century? The point being made is that Remigius' father, with his seat at Laon, was the local honcho in the 5th century. Any sourced information? --Wetman 17:19, 18 Mar 2005 (UTC)


Just look at the template from the article, won't you? I've repeated it at the bottom of this page! Generated from a list of Archbishops of Reims without the least further thought. Now, if one says from time to time, that those with no information make templates instead, is one really so very far from the mark? Wouldn't it be more sensible if the articles on "Bennage" of Rheims and Romanus of Rheims were made first? (Fat chance! they're not much more than names, if that!). This is fingerpainting: an exercise in self-expression, for no one could say that this aids the Wikipedia reader, can they? -- 05:18, 19 December 2005 (UTC)


[edit] Errors

Some errors on this page: the statue of Clovis and Saint Remi is close to the Saint-Remi basilica in Rheims, and not beside the cathedral. In the same way, the relics of Saint-Remi are also in the Saint-Remi basilica…


[edit] Quote

Is it Saint Remy who supposedly said, "Revere what thou has burned, and burn what thou has revered?"Michaelsanders 23:48, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
