Talk:Riga Central Market

UNESCO World Heritage Site

The Riga Central Market is according to Historic Centre of Riga a part of the buffer zone surrounding Vecrīga, and Vecrīga constitutes the Historic Centre of Riga. The newly added source does not verify Riga Central Market being included to a UNESCO World Heritage Site. ^Talk/♥фĩłдωəß♥\^Work 13:03, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

Weird. May be it's not after all. I no longer remember where, but I did see this listed as included in UNESCO, but I linked to the UNESCO site instead of the original brief mention. May be it was wrong in the first place, I never bothered to re-check properly. I'll look into this more later. —  HELLKNOWZ  ▎TALK 13:53, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

Any results? ^Talk/♥фĩłдωəß♥\^Work 11:24, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Well, I can't find it on official site, except the map itself. But I added three passing mentions in other sites. That should probably be enough. —  HELLKNOWZ  ▎TALK 13:07, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

The nitty-gritty of the problem as I see it is, if the official UNESCO World Heritage Site does not explicitly mention, that the Riga Central Market is included to the Heritage Site - it most probably is not. I am not sure where those travel advertisement websites gets their informations from, but it sure is not the UNESCO website. To me, those references more looks like something copied from others - like this Wikipedia article. ^Talk/♥фĩłдωəß♥\^Work 14:40, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

PS: According to the description at the UNESCO referenced site, it is possible to conclude that the Riga Central Market does not lie within the World Heritage Site: "The area of the Historic Centre of Riga consists of three elements: the medieval Old City, the 19th century semi-circle of boulevards, and the 18th and 19th century former suburban quarters lying outside the boulevards, with a chequerboard layout". If one takes a look at the UNESCO referenced image, it should be quite obvious, that sectors 1, 2 and 3 are the above mentioned three elements, and that the Riga Central Market lies within sector 4. ^Talk/♥фĩłдωəß♥\^Work 15:02, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

Stockholders

Following statement cannot be verified: "and the Mayor of Riga, Nils Ušakovs, is the only stockholder". According to the source provided, Ušakovs is "pilnvarotais pārstāvis" (enpowered representative) with two other persons from the Riga Municipality. ^Talk/♥фĩłдωəß♥\^Work 13:16, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

The source is now outdated; it was different at the time of access. —  HELLKNOWZ  ▎TALK 13:51, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

Then I will remove/rephrase it if you do not mind. ^Talk/♥фĩłдωəß♥\^Work 11:24, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Of course, go ahead. The managements change all the time, no exception here. —  HELLKNOWZ  ▎TALK 13:08, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Consider it done. ^Talk/♥фĩłдωəß♥\^Work 14:40, 21 March 2011 (UTC)
