[edit] Pato Branco

Pato Branco was removed from the list of cities, without comment. I don't know a thing about it, whether the place even exists, or what, but could someone explain the reason for the removal. -- Jmabel | Talk 05:14, May 7, 2005 (UTC)

We have an article, on it, which I assume is legitimate, so I am restoring. And please don't remove other people's comments from the talk page. -- Jmabel | Talk 09:09, 6 November 2005 (UTC)

Well, I live in Curitiba, the capital city of Parana. The city of Pato Branco ("White Duck") surely exists. I've never been there, but I have friens living there and the University in which I lecture has a campus in Pato Branco. Take a look at http://www.pb.cefetpr.br and also at http://www.patobranco.pr.gov.br/site.

[edit] Anon removal without comment

[1] removed "Nevertheless, the state has some critical social problems, mainly in the west and in the suburbs of the city of Curitiba and Foz do Iguaçu." - Jmabel | Talk 16:48, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

In fact that really happens. Foz had a really huge increasment of its population, and that has been causing some urban problems. But despite this, the west is the most developed region in Paraná. The city o Curitiba demand no comments. Lately has been a disaster the way the city has been growing. It doesn't seems anymore the city which one day was called "Model of development".
