Talk:Giza

Grammar and Style Issues in the Introduction

The first graf of this article could use some grammatical fixes. "Being located on the west bank of the Nile river, some 20 km southwest of central Cairo" is a sentence fragment. "Along with Shubra El-Kheima, Cairo and Helwan, the 4 cities form the Province of Greater Cairo metropolis" leaves out the city of Giza entirely and syntactically implies four additional, unnamed cities that, along with Shubra El-Kheima, Cairo and Helwan, make up the Greater Cairo metropolis. I hesitate to change the paragraph myself because I don't know anything about this geography. Anyone else want to? St.JohnBosco (talk) 22:58, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

Conflicting Latitudes Given

The article gives two separate coordinates for Giza's northerly latitude: 30 degrees, 1 minute North and 29 degrees, 59 minutes North. It would be nice to clear this contradiction up. Writtenright 23:50, 27 September 2007 (UTC)Writtenright
