[edit] Paraíba's Valley (???????????)

Sinceramente eu acho que deveria estar escrito "Vale do Paraíba" e não "Paraiba Valley", por que, além de rídiculo, soa extremamente mal e não se deve traduzir nomes próprios.

Se colocamos Paraíba Valley, deveriamos mudar todos os nomes para o inglês, começando com Saint Joseph of the Fields (rs).

This should be Paraíba Valley, because valley is a geographical feature that should be in English. This is not changing a proper name. The same goes with many other names- such as Rio Amazonas is the Amazon River in English. Conversely, Brazilians call the Mississippi River Rio Mississippi, which is acceptable.--Adam (talk) 14:01, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] serve 2 milhões de pessoas???????

"Serving a population of approximately two million inhabitants, the city is also the regional hub for shopping and services for the Vale do Paraíba, the northern coast and southern Minas Gerais."

Eu acho que não é tudo isso, não tem esse tanto de gente no Vale do Paraiba, no Litoral e no Sul de Minas. E mesmo que tivesse 2 milhões de pessoas, falar que TODOS eles vão para São José trabalhar é sacanagem. Esse dado eu não corrigi por que não tenho como obter o número real.

I am doing some copy-editing and will fix the wording. The author estimated that the region has 2 million people. The number I got for the region was 1,170,381. That's much closer to 1 million people than two.--Adam (talk) 14:08, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
According to this site [1], Região de SJC has, 1,170,381 people. Direct us to the source that supports two million.--Adam (talk) 19:27, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cleanup/General

I will assist in cleaning up this article. The English is very strange. Also, please keep your posts in English as this is the English wiki (Favor coloque somente inglês aqui, como é o Wiki em inglês)--Adam (talk) 23:12, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your help..201.1.159.18 00:04, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

My cleanup is finished. --Adam (talk) 14:48, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

Mind if I do some more tweaking on the English? Jasrandal 15:23, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
