Talk:Vienne (département)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wondering how to edit this département entry? The Wikipedia:WikiProject French departements standards might help.
Why the disambiguation here? What is wrong with simply having the article on the department here and have the river at Vienne River? I see no need to parenthetically disambiguate when disambiguation blocks will take care of this easily. --mav
- Agree, go ahead and do the same thing you already did with Meuse and Dordogne. Jeronimo
- Also agree. For more on this, see WikiProject French departements - Olivier

lots more material is suggested just by looking at "What links here" if anyone feels ambitious. Wetman 05:00, 19 Mar 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Avitus of Vienne
I think you may have the wrong Vienne here - the one on the Rhone, in Burgundy, is surely the one where Avitus was Bishop (particularly since he was the person putting pressure on Gundobad to become Catholic). It was an extremely important town in Late Antiquity, with quantities of churches and monasteries.
