I think these park names should be translated into English. For example, Pyrenees National Park come up on the official website along with parc National des Pyrénées (not Les Pyrenees parc national). What are the others in English? Rmhermen 23:57, Nov 19, 2003 (UTC)
- I think it is rather a bad idea to translate these names, because one of the interest of making an article on them is precisely for a visitor in France to come and visit them, and it is a better idea that he recognise the name, if only from an alphabetical perspective in a book
- in any cases, the names currently given are NOT the french names. So whatever the choice (respect of local names or not), the name should "exist" somewhere Anthère 05:19, 20 Nov 2003 (UTC)
for example Les Cévenne Parc National is in reality le Parc National des Cévennes.
- I have added the English names from the official webpages as links. This is the English Wiki after all - and beside the official park webpages sometimes have as many 4 different French versions of each name. I think I have added the official French name for each.
