[edit] Expand

Someone should really expand this article, particularly about Cambodia's art, dance and historical dance costumes, I'm going to do some looking into it. This is about cambodian culture, I'll write a diffrent section about culture after the fall of angkor, mainly because of extensive cultural exchange between cambodia and thailand, thus making culture at the time borderline copying. At the mean time, do anyone care to add more? --Leaki 11:30, 20 August 2006

I'll do it, I have enough info. CanCanDuo 21:39, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

Please do expand, it would be interesting to know more about the ancient culture of Cambodia as I'm sure there are huge differences from the culture today. I wish I could add to it, but my problem is finding good, reliable information regarding that. --Hecktor 16:22, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pictures

Please add pictures. (CanCanDuo 05:02, 30 December 2006 (UTC))

[edit] Clothing Section

I'm creating a section on clothing, but first I'm writing the article on the sampot. CanCanDuo 21:39, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Childhood and adolescence section

I've removed this entire section as it is a blatant copyright violation. The text was taken from here. Do not restore without substantially rewriting. --JD554 (talk) 15:09, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

This is from a public domain publication by the Library of Congress (that's where country-data.com gets it from), as the reference says. This means it is fine to include here. Calliopejen1 (talk) 15:10, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

This page which is the main page for the text copied claims copyright. Until the status of the text can be determined one way or the other it is best to leave it off. --JD554 (talk) 15:15, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

The information is in public domain from the Library of Congress. The section pertaining to family is found here. If you notice, on that page you provide there is no copyright notice. If you go directly to http://www.country-data.com/ you will see at the bottom of the page "Based on the Country Studies Series by Federal Research Division of the Library of Congress". -- LaNicoya  •Talk•  15:31, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Ah, I missed that notice first time. I went one step back from that page to here which has it's own copyright notice. My apologies for problems I've caused. --JD554 (talk) 15:33, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
