The French articel on this says there are 6 different "pays". 68.39.174.238 01:22, 16 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

I made the English article reflect the French one.

In this context, "pays" actually means more or less "region", which not necessarily reflect the current administrative regions 83.177.206.183

I explained the term "pays" in the article, and removed the "contradict" banner. I hope the article is clear enough now. Tovarich1917 12:59, 25 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

==WP Tax Class==

Start class because not many references. Once it gets references though it could probably go up.EECavazos 19:40, 3 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

==WP Tax Priority==

Low priority because it is an article on a tax levied in the past in one country.EECavazos 19:41, 3 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

Aigues Mortes

edit

It is asserted here, without evidence, that aigues mortes means dead waters. This needs some explanation—a word or two— because that is not modern French, I believe. Occitan, perhaps? The entry for the city is linked to, but i didn't see anything there that backed this up. Actio (talk) 00:43, 26 March 2017 (UTC)Reply
