[edit] The use of sources, such as Christian Settipani

This whole article is full of statements that are highly doubtful. None of the sources and quotes comes from a contemporaine source. Take for example the date of bearth of Ansbertus. The article gives 2 possible dates. However the primary source that is used gives NONE. More over that very primary source is doubtful. It is contradicted by another source. All problems concerning interpretation of the sources are given by Christian Settipani in his book Prehistoire des Capetiens. The article however adresses none of these problems and gives an account of the primary source that is rather dubious and not in line with the familytree Settipani gives in this book.

On the other hand this article sais interesting things like that Arnoald was margrave of the Scheldt. This may be true, or not, but what I would like to see is a primary source for it. You see, dear Alex, when I place a tag for additional sources this is not because I doubt, or question the fact, it is only because I think that an additional source may be useful, for example for students who need such a source, or for people that are interested and want to learn more. Placing of a tag for additional sources is NOT a negative comment on the work done by a previous editor. And I hope you are not against giving extra information? After all man is only born once, not twice and it may be interesting to see why this article gives two dates of birth. johanthon (talk) 13:59, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Waldrada attached to incorrect Chlothar

The Waldrada link on this page concerns Waldrada as the wife of Chlothar II. Either that reference is incorrect, or this page's contention that she is a wife of Chlothar I is incorrect. In other Wiki articles, it appears that Chlothar I was the husband of Ingund and they in turn were the parents of Blithilde, the wife of Ansbertus, the Gallo-Roman Senator.
