Talk:Charleroi

message: I may be mistaken, but in French the inhabitants are called Caroloregians. in English Carolingians ?
The inhabitants of Charleroi are called Carolorégiens in french, but I don't know any english translation.
:Carolingians may be a correct translation but this has many other medieval (historical) connotations in English which may confuse the reader.Student7 (talk) 02:46, 2 April 2009 (UTC)

message: "Dutch: Karelskoning, but Charleroi is more frequently used", User:Julien_Tuerlinckx writes. But this is incorrect information, because Karelskoning is never ever used at all. I suggest that Karelskoning be deleted, just like in the Dutch and French articles about Charleroi, unless reliable sources such as Belgian books, reference works and official documents prove that the name does exist. Most of the internet hits are actually quotes from Wikipedia. Mimse 13:25:18, 2005-08-07 (UTC)
:Hi, I checked what you said about the google hits and indeed it seems that the only site that doesn't obviously quote wkipedia is this one...  so i think we should remove karelsjoning except if we find more information about it (isn't it an old name for the city?).  Watch also the article Names of European cities in different languages.  Cheers, Julien Tuerlinckx 14:06, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: The name Karelskoning was used as a joke in some radio-programm in Belgium. I have removed this translation because it is never used at all. Sunshineboy 08:57, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

message: Is there a way to note a small town in the USA near Pittsburgh named for Charleroi, Belgium, by many who came from it in the 1890's?  Near the Monongahela Valley coalfields they manufactured steel, as they had in Belgium.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charleroi,_Pennsylvania

message: "it was renamed Charle-roi, or King Charles,"
This would appear to be a misprision. "King Charles"  in French would be 'le roi Charles'
Charleroi would appear to be simply a literal rendering in French of the chronogram quoted -FUNDATURCAROLOREGIUM  "Founded by Royal Charles"  (in that case 'Carlos)
