message: Wouldn't it be better to rename this article be renamed to Community of Madrid, since that is the official name and avoid the unnecessary parentheses? --the Dúnadan 21:46, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

message: As defined by dictionaries, and as understood by all English speakers, State is also a nation or a country. Plus: . The world "country" is only once, the word "State" and the feared "Spanish State" is shown dozens of times. Why the insistence? First you opposed "Spanish State", but you said you were fine with "State", but of course, you do not understand the word compromise. So, after a while, after I compromised, now you disregard and show no respect for your own words, and recant. Please Maurice, show your spirit of cooperation, for once.  --the Dúnadan 22:22, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Well the anon user made me open my eyes. I like "Country" more. Is that ok with you? Or do we have to do what you order?. Is "Country" wrong? No Is "Country" a badly used description in this context? NO. Does the word "country" follow wikipedia guidelines? YES. Is the word "state" too ambiguous? Yes. Is the word "Country" ambiguous? NO. Then I'll rather use it. Cheers. --MauritiusXXVII   (Aut Doce, Aut Disce, Aut Discede!) 23:21, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Again, read your own constitution. "The capital of the State is Madrid" (in an English translation). I don't think State is ambiguous. But this, of course, is my perception, as well as yours. Thank God there are dictionaries. And according to them, there is no ambiguity. --the Dúnadan 23:23, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

message: In Christian Repopulation section says:
In the 13th century, Madrid was the only city of the region that preserved its own juridical personality, at first with the Old Fuero (Charter) and later with the Royal Fuero, granted by Alfonso X of Castile in 1262 and ratified by Alfonso XI in 1339
It's false. Tierra de Alcalá (Land of Alcalá, Alcalá shire) had two Fueros (regional code of laws, charter). The Old Fuero (1135, even older than Madrid) and the New Fuero in 1509. There was also a review of the Old Fuero in 1223. The New Fuero had legal validity until the fall of Antiguo Regimen (Former Regime) in Spain.
