Editting geo-stubs 
I find it curious that you edited several of the additions I had made to several article exclusively in the direction of maintaining the regional (in this case Catalan) stub designation and not the national (in this case Spanish) designation.  

If they are both superfluous, why was not the regional one discared?  Why did the national one always disappear?  

I don't see the harm in having both there.  Many people may not necessarily know in which country Catalonia is.  They have a better chance of knowing about a place if they know it is in Spain.
