Talk:Kingston, Jamaica
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I'd like to know if the linked google satellite maps have been modified in any way. I'm a student and my understanding is that Kingston isn't located where the maps say it is, so just wondering if they can do anything to those images. I suppose I should wonder why they'd want to do anything to them.
[edit] Born in Kingston
I removed this section because it had only a single entry. Apart from the fact that "born in Kingston" isn't enough of a reason to be mentioned in an encyclopaedia (think about what a complete list would look like), having only a single name makes it look like he is the only prominent Kingstonian. I think that a longer list of "Prominent Kingstonians" would be appropriate, but a single listing is not balanced, and is thus not NPOV. Guettarda 15:11, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
IS there a capital of Jamaica? I need pictures for a report on Jamaica.

- A little, it proves that you didn't read the first line of the article.--Dp462090 | Talk | Contrib | 20:16, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Photos
I have added a pic of Devon House one of the tourist spots in Kingston -- Op. Deo 14:23, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Grammar/usage
The article says: "Two parts comprise the central area of Kingston ..." A thing is not "comprised of" its parts; it "comprises" them. It one wants to use some form of the word "comprise," then it should read, "The central area of Kingston comprises two parts ..."

- Fixed. Sometimes it's easier to fix these yourself than to write up the error. --CliffC 03:10, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
Please controll link to esperanto version. I think it's uncorrect because it's not same thing. --Hgav 20:21, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
