Talk:Eoppa of Bernicia

Of where?
IN what way was Eoppa "of Bernicia"? Is there an RS for this title? Redheylin (talk) 23:07, 17 May 2010 (UTC)

And while we are at it, how is such a person, nothing but the first name in a long sequence of names, notable in the least? His death date is just someone's wild guess (someone just took his sons date of becoming king and decided that was about when Eoppa died, while the only source given is a database compiled, not for the purposes of recording scholarly genealogy, but in order to study how genealogists would use an on-line database - that is not a WP:RS. This Eoppa is no more notable than the Wessex Eoppa, likewise just a name in a genealogy with a made-up death date, and that page was converted to a redirect because he was not notable enough to merit a page. If there has been no substantial scholarly writing on this Eoppa, then I am going to suggest that Eoppa of Bernicia redirect either to Ida or to a disambiguation that lists the two Eoppas, one pointing to Egbert and the other to Ida.
