- I've reworked this using Wikipedia:WikiProject Ethnic Groups Template. Hope that addresses your concern. -- Jmabel 23:16, 16 Feb 2004 (UTC)
I have just reversed a recent anon edit, restoring the statement that the Basques had considerable autonomy in pre-Revolutionary France. Among other sources, I can cite the 1911 E.B., which should be fine on this sort of thing. If someone has sources that disagree, please cite them rather than just changing the article in this respect without explanation. -- Jmabel 22:52, 19 Feb 2004 (UTC)
I am not sure of the usefulness of the recent anon edit adding "Today, Basque nacionalists claim that Spanish Civil War was a war of Spain against the Basques (which is obviously false: there were basques on both sides)." I am basically going to reword it to be less POV (i.e. drop "obviously"), but let the content basically stand. -- Jmabel 22:57, 19 Feb 2004 (UTC)
