I think we should change the name to Pamplona/Iruña, the official name.
I have changed town to city, as technically Pamplona is a city, and the first actual "town" would be Valcarlos, on the Spanish-French border.
I have removed a link to a personal site about Bardenas Reales (see article in Spanish), which is a desert to the south more related to Navarra than to Pamplona. Viracosha 11:19, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
Hi. Sorry 81.35.180.92 ( talk · contribs) but I've reverted your revert adding back the link to 2Pamplona and I wanted to explain why. Wikipedia has some definite rules on what may be included in the External Links section. Blogs are very rarely included (see WP:ELNO, point 11). I notice from your comment here that you own the domain, which is another problem... because of conflicts of interest, you should avoid submitting a link to one of your own sites (see WP:EL#ADV). I hope that you continue contributing to the article in other ways though, as I'm sure you have a lot of local knowledge! Cheers, Basie ( talk) 20:26, 23 January 2009 (UTC)
Both English and Chinese versions of San Fermin say that San Fermin starts on July 6. But both versions of this article, Pamplona, suggest that it starts on July 7. Which is correct? Heinrich ⅩⅦ von Bayern ( talk) 10:32, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
I was just in Pamplona and there's no way it's half way across spain. Compare it to the google map and you'll see it's firmly in the basque region in the northeast, not center east

The statement that the star fort was intended mainly for keeping locals in check is explained in the article Ciudadela de Pamplona (in Spanish), quoting a book chapter by Alicia Camacho (Muraria, Pamplona: Gobierno de Navarra, 2005), who is a prominent military architecture historian (I’ve not read the chapter itself but only the Spanish Wikipedia article). I would need to study this more in depth but I guess the goal of preventing insurrection was important during sixteenth century, but the dramatic improvements undertaken in the fort during the following two centuries were stimulated above all by the progresses showed by Vauban’s siege techniques and that the main fear of the Spanish monarchy was an invasion by the French military. Actually, I mentioned in my (imprudent) first edit “Vauban-style fortifications”… and, as is well known, Vauban techniques are more recent that the decision of erecting the Pamplona’s citadel and its first Italianate design… — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tradewater ( talk • contribs) 17:29, 25 June 2012 (UTC)
2005? 2006? 2011? 2013?
Can someone fix this?:

The lede gives this as the English form, but I've never heard of it. When I google it, all I get is Polish. Is there any evidence that Pamplona is called anything other than Pamplona in English? 155.213.224.59 ( talk) 16:33, 27 July 2015 (UTC)

The target gives the Basque as "Iruña" (and "Iruñea"), but does not mention "Iruñeko" anywhere, which I am guessing (from search results) is used as the adjectival form (e.g. "Iruñeko Planetarioa ", the planetarium). We have redirects Iruñeko and Iruneko but nothing to say about them... could we add something e.g. to the Infobox as a demonym? I don't know enough to do so myself. I've raised a discussion at Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2016_December_17#Iru.C3.B1eko. Si Trew ( talk) 12:51, 17 December 2016 (UTC)

Iñigo Arista appears listed as Enecco and Eneko at least twice throughout the article.
Those names have never appeared on any official documents and are just used on nationalist grounds to twist factual history. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.57.0.230 ( talk) 09:16, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
Taking into account that Pampeluna is the English name by which the city was known during most of its history (it was used at least until the end of the XIX. century from what I know: see here), why would not it be that the name of this article? I am well aware that it is not the most commonly used name, but it is also true that "Pamplona" is a Spanish name, not English. So, being this an English language Wikipedia, should not the title of this page be "Pampeluna"? Of course, on the first sentence we would explain how the city is officially named "Pamplona" in Spanish and "Iruña" in Basque, Euskaltzaindia recommending "Iruñea" for Basque speakers.
