We should probably have a blue link for law school of Bologna, even if it's a pipe. —Srnec (talk) 00:04, 4 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It's not sure that he studied at what became the university though. Likely, but not proven, but we know he studied law at Bologna... Ealdgyth - Talk 00:37, 4 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The phrase "the law school of Bologna" suggests a single law school located in Bologna at which he studied. Are you saying that what became the university was not originally a law school? Or should the article say instead just that he studied law at Bologna and not at "the law school of" it?
I didn't mean to imply that it should pipe to University of Bologna, however. I meant that we need an article on the medieval scholastic study of law at Bologna. There were, if I'm not mistaken, several early law schools there. A single article on all of them would be fine. I don't have the time to work on one right now (maybe some day), but I thought I should point out what appeared to me a serious gap in our coverage. Srnec (talk) 06:33, 4 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Why not the Biography and/or Middle Ages portal(s)? I thought it was kosher to include portals at the bottom of articles. --Another Believer(Talk) 02:16, 4 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Most articles don't include portals at the bottom - especially not such broad ones. If there was a Portal:Canon lawyers .. that might be more relevant, but a link to the biography portal, really? Ealdgyth - Talk 02:25, 4 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
