[edit] Football or soccer?

An editor just changed a reference from 'football' to 'soccer' ... what is the general consensus on preferred word for this sport? Scarybot 12:57, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

I took the liberty of changing it back to football, the real sport's name, in the language of it's inventors. I think someone changed to soccer because here in Brazil there are many people with north-american-colonized mindsets. 189.17.86.102 (talk) 19:37, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] High-Rise?

The article, under the Economy section, mentioned high-rise luxurious hotels in the seafront. But the municipal laws of construction only allows buildings to be built up to eight floors, so no high-rise there. I just deleted the high-rise part and left only luxurious hotels. 189.17.86.102 (talk) 19:37, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
