- Keep. According to [1] a castro is "a fortified village of celtic culture where the "castrejos" live." Another site gives the same description there is on the page. It is definitely accurate, and could be expanded by someone who knows more about it. Make it a stub, but keep it by Robert Pendray who forgot to sign his comment
- Keep, helpful. Wyss 00:35, 25 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- Transwiki to wiktionary and delete. Wrong title, by the way - this is not what I call "name". - Andre Engels 15:30, 25 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- Keeping it at Castro (name) doesn't seem right. Why not at Castro? 172.160.82.238 21:22, 25 Dec 2004 (UTC) (not voting, since I'm an anon.)
- It's ok for anons to vote. Paul August ☎ 05:06, Dec 26, 2004 (UTC)
- If verified, transwiki to Wiktionary. Please don't take this the wrong way, Robert, but casual mention in a website about the origins of a breed of dog does not stike me as authoritative sourcing. Rossami (talk) 06:29, 28 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- Keep . Not Nonsense a "castro" is indeed what the article says it is (and a popular surname in the Spanish region of Galicia). Castros are considered interesting arqueological sites and much has been written about them. I you want to see one (with information in English) check : http://www.aaviladonga.es/ you can also find some more information in english at: http://www.xunta.es/xeral/cifras/english/ihist.htm (scroll down to "The Era of "Los castros") and another good article in English at http://www.aaviladonga.es/e-castrexo/uk/mec-rg.htm. The article should be made into a stub before it can be expanded by somebody with more knowledge.
