Peacock terms, etc.

Even as a Uruguayan, I think that the incredibly flattering language used in this article is a bit too much... Much of the content seems to come from a few newspaper articles about Punta del Este, which, though very kind to the city, are hardly encyclopedic material. Much of what the article says is correct, but the way in which it's said needs to be modified, and the dozens of "peacock terms" need to be eliminated. Also, I think the name-dropping part is unnecessarily long, and the list is really excessive. One or two names of international renown might be alright, but most of the 20+ names already there illustrate very little. What does everyone else think? DSS370 20:32, 19 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I totally agree

I accessed the 'edit' section to leave a comment on the style of this article only to find that I'm not the only one who thinks the same. I agree with whoever left the above comment and urge collaborators to make this article more encyclopedia-friendly. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 190.31.74.66 (talk) 04:22, 2 April 2007 (UTC).[reply]
