Eh?

[edit]

the city has now only three flowers, but enjoys a proven life quality. What is that supposed to mean? --Kristian 22:59, 8 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I suspect that the three flowers refers to a ranking on some silly-assed Green City scale. Sort of a like three stars for a hotel.Acad Ronin (talk) 00:08, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I checked the reference to three flowers in the French language Wikipedia article, and the page [1] did not list Besançon as one of the places with three flowers. In fact, it did not list Besançon at all. On the other hand, the article mentions 2007 and the reference is dated 2008. Coyets (talk) 10:12, 13 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Origin of the name of Besançon

[edit]

Since few days somebody is adding in the articles of Besançon a reference to the city of Busan, in Korea. This person explain that Besançon, is pronunce as Busan-son, so that Besançon would be the daughter city of Besançon... This is completely false. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, please don't put in it personnal thoughts or impressions. It's not because it sounds like Busan's son that it's correct. The origin of the name of Besançon comes from VESONTIO, the name of the city in the Ancient era, when it was a gallo-roman metropolis. During the fouth century, a B replaced the V of Vesontio, and the name of the city becam Besontio or Bisontion, and then several transformations took place untill 1243 when th name took his definitive form of Besançon. SO, IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH BUSAN!!!!!!!!! Wikipedrox

I have a question, why is the Spanish name referenced? I searched the article but could find no information as to why this occurred. I can understand the German reference as it no doubt has strong Germanic history, but why the Spanish name? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.217.241.254 (talk) 00:45, 3 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Motto

[edit]

'Utinam' doesn't appear to mean 'God wills it.' It just means 'would that', 'if only' etc. etc. 'Deus Vult' would mean 'God wills it', and indeed, that's far more common.

Besancon stone

[edit]

added image, and link to forest where a quarry exists which provided the stone for the older buildings. images dont capture the subtle colors well, but the amazing patterns of light and dark within each stone are visible. this needs to be expanded on.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 05:32, 9 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Besançon Astronomical Observatory

[edit]

There is a well-known astronomical observatory in Besançon, with its own Wikipedia entry, that should be mentioned. I'm not sure where it should go. Maybe someone more familiar with this article can post a comment and link. Bill Jefferys (talk) 03:07, 8 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Good idea; I added it to the Culture/sites section (which would benefit from some layout re-organization). Eric talk 14:11, 8 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Gauls

[edit]

"During the Bronze Age, c.1500 BC, tribes of Gauls settled the oxbow." This does not seem correct, if the Gauls are a Celtic people, does it? 2601:602:8B81:9900:2CB5:D0E4:5C82:F7DC (talk) 22:35, 25 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
