To the anonymous most recent contributor: Could you clarify that? I was under the impression that the Salvadoran colón is still in use, but that the US dollar is also legal tender. Has the colón in fact been entirely disposed of? If so, we should remove him from currency templates and lists... Thanks in advance for your input! Nightstallion 07:25, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] El Salvadoran/ian

This page should either be El Salvadoran or El Salvadorian. I can't figure out which. www.dictionary.com says El Salvadorian, google has more hits for El Salvadoran. wikipedia has references to both. Is there a definitive source??? Mom2jandk 02:37, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

Merriam-Webster, which I tend to trust most, says "El Salvadoran". ナイトスタリオン 14:06, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
