The article is very weak in sources, as noted in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dynastic House of Candia. The article was not deleted. However, in the Italian wp a similar article was deleted by this RfD. "There wasn't any history of the family, it was a poorly formatted list of people; suspected copyvio."

So, some modern academic sources that this was actually real would be welcome. I am particularly suspicious of the link Candia - Scandia. /Pieter Kuiper 13:45, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] False coat of arms reintroduced

I had removed the following section, because its unlikely content was completely unsourced (diff):

Old Arms of Godfrey Crispin de Crepon Candiæ 1st Lord of Candia, Count of Brionne, Baron of Lüneburg

Roger de Candiæ was the son of Odo and grandson of count Crispin d’Arnès, of Normandie Anjou-Chateaubriant, in Italina Crispiano Signori d'Arneis del Roero, in Latin GUAFRIDUS CRISPIANUS SCANDIA, in English Godfrey Crispin of Scandinavia, and in French as Guyfred de Crêpon Scandie des Danes,(modern French: Godfrey de Crépon Candie), son of Gunnora de Crépon of the Nobles House of Danes.

From historical records and church documents, we found his name registered in various different ways, since some times he is recorded by his given name others by his feudal titles or in others by his maternal or paternal house titles; in all events there are common links that make easy to identify Roger de Candiæ son of Odo son of Godfrey Crispin son of Gunnor de Crêpon and the link to the House of Normandie of Richard I.

Last night this was reintroduced in a long session of edits, still completely without references. The paragraph with its "we found his name" is formulated as original research. The figure caption is false. The file is called "Wappen Deutsches Reich - Herzogtum Braunschweig (Kleines).png". It has nothing to do with anything in this article. /Pieter Kuiper 07:09, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
