Seat of a subprefect?

[edit]

I might be wrong but I think that the line "Orthez has a tribunal of first instance and is the seat of a subprefect" is incorrect. When I lived there in 2003-2004, Bayonne had a subprefectural office and the main prefectural office was in Pau. When I had to do anything involving the government, I either had to go 40km east to Pau or 70km east to Bayonne. It would've been great if it had a subprefecture there; I could've just walked to it then! :)

Good point! I have corrected that, from the info at fr:Arrondissements des Pyrénées-Atlantiques. olivier 12:30, 12 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Merci bien, mon ami. Tu viens d'ou, toi-même? Orthez? Ou prês d'Orthez? Il y en a beaucoup des Olivier là-bas. :) J'étais l'assitant anglais au lycée Gaston Fébus en l'année scolaire 2003-2004. Va à mon page de paroles, User_talk:Iainsona si tu voudrais parler un peu. À plus. Iainsona 12:49, 12 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Non, je ne viens pas d'Orthez, ni meme pres. Olivier est un nom tres courant en France ! J'essaie juste d'ameliorer les articles des communes francaises. J'avais trouve l'information sur l'arrondissement dans l'article de Wikipedia francais. J'ai fait quelques modifications a l'article aujourd'hui. Entre autres j'ai cree un article separe pour le canton. J'espere que les modifications te satisfont. olivier 12:42, 20 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ortès is in Bearnese/Bearnais, NOT Occitan

[edit]

The page says that Orthez' name in Occitan is Ortès but not only is Occitan barely spoken in the Bearn (even less in the Pays d'Orthez), but Ortès is actually in Bearnese. Reference to that: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthez Mathias Voorhees (talk) 23:57, 29 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
