[edit] Wikipedia:Caribbean Wikipedians' notice board

I would like to announce the establishment of the Wikipedia:Caribbean Wikipedians' notice board. Anyone with an interest in the Caribbean is welcome to join in. Guettarda 1 July 2005 13:37 (UTC)

[edit] Actual flag

The actual region flag is here; I'd include it myself, but I'm not sure whether to remove the unofficial snake flag entirely or where to put it if not. Any comment from the regular editors of this article? —Nightstallion (?) 16:31, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

The flag you linked to is actually the flag of the département, it is not the flag of the région. Hardouin 12:19, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

That would be of relevance if each of the four départements d'outre-mer were not also its own région d'outre-mer... ;) —Nightstallion (?) ^{Seen this already?} 20:01, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

Martinique has both a general council (as a département) and a regional council (as a region), the flag/logo linked above is that of the general council, the one on the infobox is that of the regional council. The snake flag is the unofficial flag of Martinique commonly used, the official flag being that of France. Confusing ? :) Equendil 22:50, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Formatting error

In Mozilla Firefox at least, it seems that the edit boxes have been pushed around to where they aren't supposed to be. Is there an easy fix for this?

[edit] Proposed WikiProject

There is now a proposed WikiProject for the Caribbean area, including Martinique, at Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Proposals#Caribbean. Interested parties should add their names there so we can determine if there is enough interest to start such a project in earnest. Thank you for your attention.
