This article contains a translation of Antonio Gaudí from es.wikipedia.

Sculpted or built?

Are his works actually sculpted rather than built?

Built, but there are some sculptors working on there as Subirachs. But the question is: is yet the Gaudi's project? (Jaume from Barcelona).

3 times higher?

Are you sure about that 3 times higher thing? Can't seem to find it anywhere, though could be so.... in Gaudi's coppersmith imagination

Three times is incorrect. The central tower is supposed to be twice the height of the facade towers. The central tower is still proposed and four of the facade towers have been completed, one of which was finished by the time of his death. They are in fact, as he intended. ref. (Bonet i Armengol, J 2000, The essential Gaudi : the geometric modulation of the Church of the Sagrada Familia, 1a edn, Editorial Portic, Barcelona.)

Corpse

The part about his corpse being run over is wrong, he wasn't dead. He went to a hospital that today is no longer a hospital, I forget the name, and he died a few days later. The part about him not being recognized is right though.

ABB

Sorry, but I think that Gaudí was born in Reus not in Riudoms.

Statehood

The article states that Gaudi was in favour of "statehood" for Catalonia. This is a highly ambigious statement. It was not until the Republic of Spain that Catalonia regained statehood, which was soon repressed under Franco. So does "statehood" here simply mean its own government like in a federation or is it an indirect way to say complete independence? It would be helpful to have this cleared up and citations provided.

Misplaced Pages is not for political propaganda

The word 'Catalonia' or 'Catalunya' appear 68 times and the word 'Antoni' only 28.

Catalan

I can't understand why mentioning that Gaudi is Catalan is considered "vandalism". It is a fact and its Spanish citizienship is intrinsic in being Catalan. If not, the pages of many Scottish (British?) people should be changed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.61.146.58 (talk) 08:03, 25 June 2013 (UTC)

RE: It's tagged as spanish and catalan to understand cultural mentions. The Catalans are a cultural group formed by the people from, or with origins in, Catalonia who form a historic nationality chiefly located in northern Spain. https://en.wikipedia.org/Catalan_people — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.23.151.190 (talk) 07:07, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

Gaudí's name is not Spanish, it is Catalan, whatever your POV, please respect his actual nationality. Elizium23 (talk) 16:22, 9 September 2013 (UTC)

This article was brought to Good Article status with a compromise lede paragraph and now one editor is edit-warring to try and destroy that. I find this in very poor taste especially on a day like today National Day of Catalonia. Elizium23 (talk) 20:58, 11 September 2013 (UTC)

Catalan is no nationality. Catalonia is a region of Spain which does constitute a nationality: Spanish. --LTblb (talk) 21:02, 11 September 2013 (UTC)

Catalonia (English /kætəˈloʊniə/, /kætəˈloʊnjə/; Catalan: Catalunya or ; Occitan: Catalonha ; Spanish: Cataluña ; French: Catalogne) is an autonomous community of Spain, officially recognized as a nationality by the Statute of Autonomy of Catalonia. Elizium23 (talk) 21:15, 11 September 2013 (UTC)

In 1875 there was not even the autonomous community of Catalonia. And today it is not a nationality with a passport, is a regional nationality of Spain.--LTblb (talk) 21:27, 11 September 2013 (UTC)

There is nothing in the first sentence of the lead that either states or implies that "Catalan" is a "nationality", much less that "Catalonia" is a "nation". On the contrary, it plainly states 1) that Gaudí's nationality was Spanish and 2) that Catalonia is a region of Spain. AdeMiami (talk) 12:08, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
