moved reference from article page. olivier 10:15, 11 Aug 2003 (UTC)

From the CIA World Factbook 2000. Not Wikified.

This extreme merging, conducted by Jguk does not make sense, and the article is becoming unreadable. I agree that it is a positive move to add text under the headers, but now, except for the history section, it is just too much. Let's partly de-merge. olivier 11:38, May 8, 2005 (UTC)

[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] Economy & notes - CONTRADICTION!

There's a contradiction:

Economy: "Tourism is a key industry, with most tourists visiting from the United States."

Notes: "Most tourists DO NOT come from the US but from France and the rest of Europe."

Could someone with proper knowledge fix this?

This should be better. The numbers are from 1998; has anyone got more recent ones?

[edit] Proposed WikiProject

There is now a proposed WikiProject for the Caribbean area, including Guadeloupe, 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.

[edit] Religion

There must be a mistake with the religion section. The percentages add up to more than 100, and it doesn't even include "no religion". —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.146.25.210 (talk) 17:19, 2 January 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Flag?

What's wrong with putting up the unofficial flag if it's explicitly labeled "unofficial flag? Inkan1969 02:36, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Demopgraphy question

How is a positive population growth rate possible with 1.9 children born per women, and negative immigration ratio? --V. Szabolcs 19:54, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Football

A note was made that the football team had advanced to the CONCACAF Semifinals, but that has not happened yet. The match is still ongoing. Please don't make edits of this sort until the matches are final. MichaelBlankley 23:42, 17 June 2007 (UTC)
