There is something wrong or unclear:

Baldwin is created first count of Flanders in 862
he eloped with Judith in 863
he is made count of Ghent after the recognition of the marriage by king Charles

I assume that count of Ghent and count of Flanders could be the same. But I don't understand when he is made count - before or after the marriage. --Nk 11:14, 18 Oct 2004 (UTC

Also, Raoul is listed as being born about 10 years after Baldwin's death - Not sure how that can be accurate?? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 104.251.250.210 (talk) 19:03, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Guinidilda is not a daughther of Baldwin

Except from "Gestis Comitum Barcinonensium" therare not any more evidence that Guinidilda d¨Ampuries was daughther of Baldwin There are more evidences, that Guinidilda was a local woman (Septimania) probably daughther of one Borrell — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.36.137.5 (talk) 09:03, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Enguerrand

Baldwin I "was the son of Odoacer. Odoacer was the son of Enguerrand delle Fiandre. Enguerrand delle Fiandre was the daughter of Liederik." Enguerrand is a male French name, so could impossibly have been someone's daughter. And why mention Enguerrand's name in Italian? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.118.147.64 (talk) 12:31, 25 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
