[edit] Population density

"The population has been estimated to be as high as 400,000 and the area is approximately 4 square meters." Something seems not quite right.--SilasW 13:23, 28 June 2007 (UTC) To cut out, not to correct, the wrong area seems the coward's way out. Since its high density is featured the area must be known.--SilasW 15:49, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] History

"The area's name translates to 'beehive' in Greek...". It does not. Perhaps one might say it translates to 'beehive' in English, though "translate" seems rather strong. If "Kypseli" really does mean "beehive" (IAGTM) then "'Kypseli' means 'beehive'." without "in English" as this is the English Wikipedia.

OK I'll change itAlefbetac 06:32, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

"(t)he area itself is comprised of many smaller clusters." should be, if the intended meaning is true "(t)he area comprises many smaller clusters." though that does not seem particularly informative. Clusters of what? What causes the clustering?--SilasW 15:49, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

This is taken from the article in the external links section. I think what is meant is clusters of buildings.Alefbetac 06:32, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] A clean-up

The article was repetitive. As Alefbetac says, much was lifted from the external links which appear to be to a newspaper, where one would not be surprised at finding repetitions and padding. I hope, with no judgement on the worth of the article and its sources, that the style is less like an essay. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by SilasW (talk • contribs) 13:27, August 23, 2007 (UTC).

Great, much better now Alefbetac 10:21, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "To" v "Of" & "Famous"

English 1: It is the home of. English 2: It is home to. Famous here is not encyclopedic.--SilasW (talk) 21:58, 24 November 2007 (UTC)
