[edit] Emmerke
Can someone figure out where to place Emmerke into this article so that the orphan tag can be removed from Emmerke? Kingturtle (talk) 14:00, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
- If you want to place Emmerke into this article, you will probably have to place two dozen villages of similar (un)importance in order to be consistent. Not sure if that makes sense... Anna (talk) 21:51, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Dates of Reconstruction
I just corrected some of the dates. It is not quite correct to say "in the late 1970s reconstruction of the historic centre began.". The major churches were rebuilt right after the war (by the way, with great participation by the inhabitants of Hildesheim). The reconstruction of the historic buildings around the market place did not begin until somewhere in the mid-1980s.
Unfortunately, it is also not correct to make the general statement "... reconstruction of the historic centre began. The unattractive concrete buildings were torn down and replaced by replicas of the original buildings." This is true for a few buildings around the marketplace, but not nearly for the whole historic center which extended much beyond the marketplace. There still are a lot of concrete buildings around...

[edit] Distances
It seems funny that in the German version of this article the distance to Hanover is said to be 30 km, and here it's only 25 km. Whatever happened to those 5 km? From driving the distance myself, it seems to me that 30 km would be nearer to the truth. Anna (talk) 22:43, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] History
I find the history paragraph of this article a bit unsatisfactory. I would give a try at translating the corresponding paragraph from the German article myself, but I am afraid that there are too many specialized historic terms that I am not sure of in English. Anyone have an idea how to solve this? I'd be willing to cooperate as much as my time allows. Anna (talk) 06:47, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
