Wondering how to edit this département entry? The Wikipedia:WikiProject French departements standards might help. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mav (talkcontribs) 17:31, 28 September 2002 (UTC)Reply

The map on this page is a bit confusing: it seems to only include the eastern part of the area. Shouldn't it include Calais at least? ( 17:24, 31 Aug 2003 (UTC)

I think the problem is that a 2nd map has been uploaded for a different article, but with the same name. ( 17:27, 31 Aug 2003 (UTC)

The previous map was for Lens, France. Hemmer 21:54, 3 Sep 2003 (UTC)

Dialects edit

This article states that by the 15th Century Romance dialects had completely replaced Middle Dutch in the area. However a Dutch dialect is still spoken in the region by a significant minority, so is this untrue or has Dutch returned since the 15th Century? Booshank 21:12, 1 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Untrue, but this pleases people's nationalistic fibre if they consider themselves french, it's a bit like french politicos using the "no breton east of Vannes" trick when it's well known it was still spoken, including in some poor neighbourhoods of Nantes and Rennes. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.53.136.141 (talk) 09:19, 16 October 2009 (UTC)Reply
