Talk:Francesc Pi i Margall

Working Hours
He proposed eight, not nine daily working hours. Changed it. See: ''Piden, hoy los jornaleros que se les reduzca las horas de trabajo. Quieren que se les fijen en ocho al día.''--Tresckow 02:47, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

Why Francisco?
I don't understand why the article is titled Francisco Pi y Margall, and then begins Francesc Pi y Margall. Moreover, if the given name is to be in Spanish, then his surname should be without the y (i.e. Pi y Margall), given that the y is not usual in Spanish. However, if it is to be in Catalan, then the convention for Catalan surnames indicates it should be Pi i Margall. Either it should be in one language or the other. In any case, in my opinion, given he was Catalan, his name should stand as Francesc Pi i Margall.

If there is no opposition, I shall make the appropriate corrections. --YuriBCN 12:07, 21 November 2008 (UTC)


 * I oppose. Here are two examples of his own use of the spanish Francisco: a book written by him and his seal. Therefore any change towards the use of Francesc is POVish. --MauritiusXXVII  (Aut Doce, Aut Disce, Aut Discede!) 18:24, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

I suggest the article is renamed to Francesc Pi i Margall: this was his real name, and "Francisco Pi y Margall" is a subsequent Hispanification. The same naming policy has been followed in many similar cases, like Francesc Ferrer i Guàrdia (instead of Francisco Ferrer Guardia), Marcel·li Perelló i Domingo (instead of Marcelino Perelló Domingo), etc. Viator slovenicus (talk) 20:06, 26 January 2011 (UTC)


 * I've just reverted an article name move because the user who made it did not request the move at Requested moves as our guidelines suggests and because the translation to Catalan of the name of the person is not proven to be the one used By Pi y Margall itself. Here above are two examples I brought 3 years ago of his own use of the spanish Francisco: a book written by him and his seal. Therefore any change towards the use of Francesc is POVish. -- Maurice27 Vandalize  . 20:02, 22 June 2011 (UTC)

Where is his house?
I've heard on different Wikipedia articles in different languages and it said he died at his home. Does anyone know where it is? — Preceding unsigned comment added by SoftPillow503 (talk • contribs) 01:22, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Calle del Conde de Aranda 15, Recoletos neighborhood. Here if street numbering has remained the same (it seems plausible as the street is rather short).--Asqueladd (talk) 20:42, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

What did Francisco Pi y Margall die from?
I am aware that he died at 77 but does anyone know what he specifically die from?
