Talk:Committees for the Defense of the Republic

Title is in American English, text is in British English. I think the title should really be changed to "defence" as this is more commonly used in Spanish publications that translate the title into English.

Description of geographical scope of activities

The following sentence is used in the lede purely for descriptive purposes: "[...] are a network of assemblies that function on a local, regional and national level". Since the article concerns spanish politics and in order to inform the non catalan reader correctly, I have removed "national level" from the description. This to avoid the reader might think that these particular groups operate on a national level (i.e the whole of Spain). Whether Catalonia is a nation or not is out of the scope of this particular article and sentence Arcillaroja (talk) 13:56, 27 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Arcillaroja: thanks for adding a comment here. I improved the text to make it clear 'national' applies to Catalonia in this context. This way we also get a link to the article Catalonia in the lead of the article, which adds context to the readers. What I don't like about your proposal ('local and regional') is that even though the regional assemblies are independent of each other, they are still organized in a national level. --Aljullu (talk) 20:36, 27 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Tweets

I'm not sure that tweet refs belong in Wikipedia. However, I tried to access Comittees for the Defense of the Republic and suspect there is a misspelling here or evn a space needed before Oficial.--Brenont (talk) 03:28, 6 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
