Lead section too long?

Is it OK if I remove the section on the Japanese embassy hostage crisis? That should serve to shorten it a little. Any objections? --Rcgy 20:12, 26 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I agree.-- Walter Humala - Emperor of West Wikipedia| wanna Talk? 21:18, 26 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree... It doesn't add significant length and enhances the content of the article. Optionally, it could be merged into a future "history" section? Suntzu3500 05:43, 1 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Let's move the article

as done with "Paris" to "Paris, France", lets move "Lima" to "Lima, Peru". -- Walter Humala - Emperor of West Wikipediawanna Talk? 04:55, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

My mistake, there was no paris article moving. -- Walter Humala - Emperor of West Wikipediawanna Talk? 04:59, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Automated Request Move

The request is based on the principal that the common denominator, per the new category UTC-5 demonstrates that cities generally have the state or province name. Take for example Ottawa which should redirect to Ottawa, Ontario and not vis-versa. This will help when categorizing cities. --CyclePat 00:39, 26 January 2007 (UTC) p.s.: I couldn't help but notice that this request has already been done. Should it be moved to Lima, Lima?[reply]

No. Lima the city is administratively the same as Lima the province and is independent (not part of) of Lima the department. --Polaron | Talk 01:31, 26 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps you may be able to also help out with these other city which I believe are from South America. Request moves. Thank you. --CyclePat 03:36, 26 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Since Lima is a Capital City it doesn't need a comma and its state or country (like Los Angeles, California). So please don't move this.-- Walter Humala Godsave him! (wanna Talk?) 04:45, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Expanding

I've been editing this for many months, and I can't notice order nor manual of style here. So I started to order sections as in the Los Angeles, California article. That won't be easy, many subtopics are missing so please give me a hand. Thanks. -- Walter Humala Godsave him! (wanna Talk?) 04:45, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Some shocking pictures I've found

Hi, I don't think that picture of a slum is good for Lima; of course, there are slums in every big city around the world, but instead of uploading those pictures, some others should be published, the historical center, the beaches, the museums, the churches of Lima. There's no doubt someone with a false sense of reality and a very low self-esteem is managing these pictures, just a comment dude... peace!

hi, I've found these pictures (from commons) of shanty towns in Lima, i don't know wheter it would be fine to add.--Andersmusician 02:49, 4 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Who or what is Pompeyo? (written on the walls)? AirOdyssey (Talk) 16:49, 5 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Who knows, but it might be bad propagando to post these pictures, maybe. --201.230.6.137 19:26, 9 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The left-most house with "Pompeyo" written on it looks like it also has "FIM" written on its side. FIM would be the Independent Moralizing Front. Perhaps Pompeyo was a candidate on their list. --Descendall (talk) 08:52, 29 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I am sorry if I have frightened or offended someone in any way, it was not my intention. But to describe the poor living situations you have to put some pictures too. The pictures however are 10 and almost 30 years old (and not technically good). It can maybe also be dificult to get some pictures, as this is no "tourist-district" and you are recommended not to show any camera (in fact not to show anything). I guess the places do not look the same today. If you visit the same areas during diferent times you will be aware of a great activity, that in around 20 years in many cases will form a decent way of living, all depending the circumstances of course. But the first steps will be really harsh, lacking water, energy and anything. All is expansion in an uncontrollably way, for some years around 500-600 persons coming each day to Lima. (Pompeyo must by/must have been a local candidate for mayor or something like that, I do not recall, I just did choose a picture with no name of any political party on) Xauxa 07:45, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Although this is not a forum: "this is gonna happen always here" --Andersmusician VOTE 01:07, 30 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

While clearly such pictures would add rich context to an understanding of the situation in Lima, I have an objection to including photos of shanty towns. For the period of I think a couple of days, the article on Lima was filled with photos that highlighted the modern parts of the city (I don't know whose they were), but they were removed. If you look at the article on Los Angeles (another city I have called home), there are only images of L.A.s grandeur, one is left to read (not see) and even then just partially, about problems like Skid Row, graffitti on every major freeway, run down neighborhoods in Compton, Inglewood, South Central, East L.A. etc. etc. Why is it that in the name of "objectivity" it is always Latin American, African, and Asian cities whose impoverished sectors must be shown, but hardly ever those of North American or European cities?

There are a great many people who use wikipedia to "visit" places they don't know about, and I guarantee you that the old adage is true, a picture truly is worth a thousand words. So we are inviting people to confirm biases that there is nothing, or hardly anything, of value in Latin American cities if we populate the article withe excessive images of urban decay and poverty. This is just anecdotal, so I am not saying the whole world works like this, but I have run into many people who think Lima is all shanty towns, and people who think that Lima lacks a financial center (i.e. it is solely an historical city, full of colonial architecture). Let's not allow them to see "evidence" that this is "true" in this article. Just a thought. Rafajs77 (talk) 20:13, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]


I think it doesn't make sense to post picture which are 10, 20 or 30 years old. Lima is diferent from twenty years ago.

If someone search for Lima, they want to see how it is right now. Probably a little of history and some tourism information. --Chalaco01 (talk) 17:43, June 29 2008 (UTC)

There are a few recent pictures on www.peraleswaterproject.org that represent the not so modern areas of Lima. If someone wants to incorporate them, I believe I could get the necessary permission. FYI, Perales is a suburb of Lima. Hjg001 (talk) 20:26, 28 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Climate Chart

Hi, I've uploaded u new version of a climate chart for Lima as a vector graphics image. Data is from climate-charts will this one be an improvement on the current one with the german text? AgainErick 23:56, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Looks much better and definately an improvement. I'm not sure about the background color, though. Something whiter might look better. Your chart features the average precipiation... could it also include the average temperature? It's nice that it includes the Köppen climate category for Lima. --Victor12 02:06, 4 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Nice AgainErick but I just think the background would be better in white color, and the whole picture height reduced.--Andersmusician VOTE 04:59, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
On a second look, 7 mm is not the average precipitation. Maybe it should be 0.7 mm? --Victor12 12:38, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
New version uploaded. Reduced height and added averages. ErickAgain 22:39, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Speaking about climate many "city" articles have templates to show the average high/low temperatures and rainfall year round on a monthly basis. I've added this template from the New York City article's climate section as an example.--Jersey Devil 05:14, 14 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest we remove the satellite image also. It's credits say it's a NASA picture but i'm sure it's been edited to include the text "Lima Golf Club". No need to include that on the image. It's not a picture of the center of town either. What's the relevance to include Lima Golf Club in the Lima article (twice) anyway?--ErickAgain 22:51, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think we should have two maps on the infobox. As far as I know every city article has just one map of the city itself and its inmediate surroundings, not of the whole country. What does everybody else thinks? --Victor12 21:25, 8 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, just one locator map of lima within its surroundings. Btw, this will not be the current map, because this one shows Lima Province and Callao within Lima Region. Both Lima prov. and Callao region are not part of Lima reg.--ErickAgain 22:12, 8 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The problem is that, as Eric pointed out, Lima is not part of the Lima Region. A map of the province of Lima would be enough, I think. --Victor12 18:05, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Slums picture

I don't really think it should be there. Most city-articles don't have pictures of their bad areas. I think there was a similar problem with the article on Santiago (Chile) and their slum picture was removed. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 201.230.242.19 (talk • contribs) 03:50, July 21, 2007 (UTC).

I removed the pic, if you feel to discuss post here. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 201.230.242.19 (talk • contribs) 00:26, July 29, 2007 (UTC).

Actually, the discussion at Talk:Santiago, Chile#Picture of poor Neighborhood failed to reach any consensus. It seems the pic was removed by an IP acting on his own. As for this article, I think the slums pic is important as it shows a relevant part of Lima and its history. Also, the article deals with slums or pueblos jóvenes in several sections: History, Demographics and Districts. Thus, being an important matter, I fail to see why such a pic should be removed. --Victor12 18:34, 5 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sulms might not have been notable in Santiago's article but are extremely important in this one, these concentrate more than half Lima's population --Andersmusician VOTE 04:11, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, according to recent studies, Lima's poverty % is now 40%+, now above 50 like it was 10 years ago, plus the slums in Lima are nothing like they used to be a few decades ago. Slums like the ones shown in the picture are still common in Lima, but nowhere as common as they used to be 20 years ago. So I think these pictures should be there. But anyway, that's just my opinion.Gustav1993 VOTE —Preceding comment was added at 21:48, 7 December 2007 (UTC) [reply]

Agreed, this is an encyclopedia, not a travel guidebook or PromPeru. Articles should show the good, the bad and the ugly facts.Hpdl —Preceding comment was added at 16:12, 29 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think that we should white wash the fact that Peru is a poor country. That being said, the discription page for the photo that was added mentions that the area that was photographed is currently vastly different than it was at the time the picture was taken, which was over a decade ago. Having a picture of a poor area is fine, but ideally it would be an up-to-date photo. --Descendall (talk) 19:34, 29 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think the picture should be removed. It's been more than 10 years this picture was taken. The article in demographics clearly explains about the pueblos jovenes, so if people want more information about it, they would find it better in the pueblos jovenes article.--User:Soydeaqui (talk) 10 January, 2008

On the contrary, the fact that the Demographics section deals with pueblos jovenes is a good reason to put the slums pic. Pics in Wikipedia are used to illustrate the accompanying text. --Victor12 (talk) 19:07, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Then, it would also be better to put more pics to ilustrate more about Lima's demographics and expand it, and also to get a more up to date picture since it might probably look more urban today. Besides, this same pic is also in the pueblos jovenes article. --Soydeaqui (talk) 19:07, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
There's not enough text to put more pics in this section. Slums are up to this day a representative part of Lima, thus it makes sense to have such a pic in the article. --Victor12 (talk) 19:40, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I believe then that it would be a good idea to expand this article since the demographics in Lima are complex. Even though slums might be a representative part of Lima, it is not the only representative part alone, so it would be a good idea to show the reader more. --Soydeaqui (talk)
Feel free to expand this article. Just try to use references for your info. As for the readers, the article currently has pics of several different parts of Lima so I don't think anybody is being misled by one slum pic. --Victor12 (talk) 19:59, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

HI you all (dutch girl here) It is interesting to follow your discussion here. I want to add one point, my personal opinion as a foreigner who lived in LIma for 1 year. I agree that you need to have seen the city before you can give an opinion. However displaying Lima like it is is the pretty town by talking about only the colonial down town or Miraflores or Larcomar is wrong. Yes those areas are pretty and many rich tourists go there. But I worked in Jesus-Maria (pretty area), and driving there I went tru some not so pretty areas...and there are many neighbourhoods that are not so pretty. Like in any big city there is violance (just turn on peruvian tv and ever day there are (bad journalistic) reports about crashed, deaths, misery etc etc). An article (like journalism) should be representing the (objective some times inconveniant) truth and portaying Lima as a pretty city with districts like Miraflores and San Isidro and forgetting about Villa El Salvador or Cristibal is not the right picture. Sorry but that is the truth. Yes there has been improvement in the pueblos jovenes, but there should be more! How many poor people are living there (or worse on the streets) in Lima? And if in other city they dont show those picture does that make this article wrong or the other ones? These areas also determine the city view, its demography, its politics and they should be represented. But I do agree, you need to see it first and get your own impresion before you can write about it —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.211.52.91 (talk) 11:36, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is not a news outlet

Why is this article tagged with "This article documents a current event". Lima is not a current event. They had an earthquake tonight, one of hundreds in the country's history, but only one other is mentioned in this article. Why is tonight's so significant? Because it is the fist major one since Wikipedia was invented? Why is there no mention of the 1974 earthquake, which was worse than this one? Why do you feel the need to be the first to update this page with this breaking news? Does it make you feel important? And why on Earth would anyone include the canceled tsunami warning in this article? This isn't CNN - in a month, no one will remember the canceled tsunami warning, yet you feel it needs to be in the Lima article as part of Lima's history? You people who feel it so necessary to update Wikipedia articles as soon as you can with breaking news stories do a great disservice to these articles. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Gr8deadfan75 (talk • contribs) 04:28, August 15, 2007 (UTC).

Marriott Hotel??

Larco Museum. Housed in a viceroyal mansion atop a pre-Columbian pyramid. Lima, Peru.

Is it really necessary to have a picture of the Marriott Hotel on this page? It seems more like an advertisement to me. I don't think the Marriott Hotel holds much significance to Miraflores or Lima in general other than being the target of bombings a few years back. The Larco Museum in Pueblo Libre is a unique place in Lima. The museum itself sits atop a pre-Columbian pyramid and is housed in an 18th century colonial. The museum also hosts the largest private collection of pre-columbian art in the world. I find this much more significant than and American hotel chain. Any thoughts? Here's the picture I'm thinking of posting---> Lyndsayruell 21:29, 29 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that the Marriott pic is not necessarily the best one for this section. However, I don't think the Larco Museum pic is appropriate either. The Marriott pic is in the "Districts" section, a pic of a museum does not represent anything on how Lima districts are. Lima museums are mentioned in the "Culture" section, that's were such a pic should go. But, as you can see, that section is already filled up with pics. --Victor12 04:41, 31 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Main Picture

Hi, I want to propose people to find a more suitable pic for the Main Infobox, since the one currently there blurry and buildings are very dark, guess pic was shot at at relatively bad moment of the day. Do you you think we still need a skysline, or an image of important spots?--Andersmusician VOTE 20:42, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Landmark pics
I agree, we need a better pic. The Abancay avenue pic is quite nice but I'm not sure if it should go in the infobox. The problem with the large area pics is that none of them show the full complexity of the city. A wider shot might be required for that, maybe something like the Acho pic. Unfortunately, this pic is kind of blurry. So until we get a better panoramic picture I think we should use one of the landmark ones. Maybe the Cathedral, it is one of the earliest buildings of the city (even if it has been rebuilt several times) and it looks quite nice. --Victor12 (talk) 21:19, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
well, actually really big cities show certain parts only in main INFOBOX pic (the most notable place, or theme: see New York(Any tall building), Moscow(Kremlin), [[Sao Paulo(tall buildings[new theme over favelas])]]) but yeah meanwhile we could use landmark since Lima isnt the same everywhere. I propose "Plaza de Armas", just think the church may not be neutral (religion)--Andersmusician VOTE 03:58, 25 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I find none of the proposed pictures suitable...and given only these options would prefer the blurry photo of the dark buildings. Someone must have a skyline shot somewhere! I am especially opposed to the shot of the Cerro San Cristobal. Previously I ranted :) that it seems like a double standard to me that to be "objective" slums must be shown in pages of Latin American cities, but there is no such concern regarding European or North American cities. El Cerro San Cristobal is not representative of Lima in any meaningful way. Perhaps the Plaza San Martin shot, but it would be a second choice to any skyline shot...just my opinion.

Slums?

Several arguments have been made about displaying all aspects of Lima, including shanty towns. I have been critical of this, and I know that there is merely 1 picture of slums in the outskirts of Lima...so not a big deal in the grand scheme, but I went exploring.

Bogotá, Colombia

La Paz, Bolivia

Quito, Ecuador

México D.F., México

Caracas, Venezuela

Montevideo, Uruguay

Asunción, Paraguay

Santiago, Chile

NOT ONE photo of a slum...NOT ONE. My point of contention is simple, people already know that Latin America is a developing region, many, I'm sure, would look up Lima EXPECTING to find photos of misery...what would be informative would be to show them that this is not always the case, or not even mostly the case. Any thoughts? Rafajs77 (talk) 09:19, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The article has a wide variety of pics showing different aspects of the city. Slums are an important part Lima, lots of people leave in them. Thus, they should be shown, not hidden in an encyclopedic article. Remember this is not a travel guide. --Victor12 (talk) 15:17, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Hey Victor! I agree that the article shows a variety of aspects of the city of Lima. I think this is good. Though I don't know what the comment about the "travel guide" is about, since travel guides show shanty towns too (see Lonely Planet). I guess I am uncomfortable with the notion that we are somehow holding to standards for wikipedia when there are so many examples of places where you DON'T see what we show here. Add to the above list: London, Paris, New York City, Los Angeles, Seattle, Shanghai, Johannesburg, Sucre, Brasilia, Guadalajara, Medellin, Sao Paolo, and even other cities in Peru like Arequipa, Trujillo and Chiclayo...NOT ONE photo of a slum, or an economically run-down area. Rafajs77 (talk) 16:07, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The article is a bit lame

Hey, please spare me the comment about travel guides and consider my point substantively. I have been watching this article as it develops and have seen positive changes, negative changes, things I agreed with and things I disagreed with. All these in-between steps are mostly irrelevant to me now.

What I am concerned with is the finished product...wasn't this in the improvement drive? It is such a dull article for a city with over 400 years of history. Specifically:

1) The fact that apparently consensus can't be reached regarding an iconic image to locate in the infobox (it seems to change every month).

2) Not enough photographs are provided to illustrate the text, and some, like the satellite photo and the old map of the city, are just inconsequential to understanding any of the substantive points in the text.

3) There are pictures without any context, like the intersection photo...where is that? what district? what streets? Or the picture of the Tico under transportation? Where are the buses, the freeways?

I don't know...isn't there a way to strike a better balance between being objectively informative and making the information accessible and appealing to the user? Rafajs77 (talk) 21:45, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Too much

Man! I tried inserting a photo then reverted when I noticed it kind of screwed up the page layout only to scroll down and find that the article has been populated (overpopulated) by photos. It is too much I think. For example one image (the Via Expresa) is from Flickr and it is grainy and has poor resolution, and it isn't even necessary because there is another via expresa photo below it.

The map of the "extent of control Lima maintained during the Colonial period" is, well, funny. That control was rather tenuous to say the least.

The FORMER banco de credito headquarters? Why?

The Golf park under society and culture seems odd, as does the skyline of Miraflores under sister cities, and the headquarters of the Andean community of nations should be under a heading of international associations (if it exists, or people want to add one), not under government.

Some of the images are great, thanks to whomever added them, but some seem like they don't belong. Anyone object to them being removed? Or at least moved around? Rafajs77 (talk) 21:29, 14 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I also think there's an excess of pictures, this excess is in some situations resulting in image "stackups" (something we should avoid according to the Manual of Style). Additionally, Image:Areasoflima.png is unsourced, according to who San Miguel, Magdalena, Pueblo Libre, Jesús María, Lince, San Isidro, etc. are grouped as the "Commercial Area"? the same question goes for the districts grouped as the "Beach areas"; a reliable source is needed such as information from INEI or the Municipalidad Metropolitana de Lima. And why is the Infobox World Heritage Site placed in the "Tourism" subsection? I think that infobox shouldn't be in this article because is too specific. --Aucahuasi (talk) 14:34, 20 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Images to delete

These are the images I think should be deleted either because they are of very poor quality, not related to text, redundant, or unnecessary.

Additionally, at the end of the article, the costa verde skyline shot (since it was finally confirmed apparently) should be the skyline shot in the infobox, instead of the night shot. Again, what do people think? Rafajs77 (talk) 12:54, 17 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Reasons to keep the images:

1. This picture is a map of Peru during the colonial era. It is pertinant as Lima was in the colonial era for 63% of it's existance. It would be a present-day bias to only display current-day locater maps.

2. This picture not only illustrates what perhaps may be the city's most important landmark but also represents an important focal point throughout the city's history, further exemplified by the fact hat the image was created in 1860.

3. The image of the andean community headquarters is located in a section with images of each branch of government. Other images in this section include the Government palace, the legislative palace, and the justice palace. This photo is meant to represent the supranationalstic branch of government.

4. This image has already been removed.

5. This image is meant to portray the other financial district of Lima located in the cercado as there are already a few images of the San Isidro financial district. It is of vital importance as many coorporate headquarters are located in this area as well as the Bolsa de Valores. I have changed the caption to clarify this intented meaning.

6. This image is an important component of the city's skyline as many of it's buildings are located here.

7. I felt it would be non-POV to portray the stadium of one major team and not the other due to the fact that they are equal in importance to Peruvian society.

8. This picture is mostly illustrating the city's skyline rather than the via expresa.

9. The plaza San Martin is a focal point and a landmark of the city and therefore is illustrated. In regards to its location in the article, there have been images located in the excact same spot for the last eleven months and nothing has been made of it until now. Additionally, there is no strict rule defining the relationship a image must have with its section.


I honestly do not see the reason to delete images. Images are ways to convey ideas that text cannot and without them, or without enough of them, these ideas become absent from the encyclopedia. In relation to formatting, I see no dilema in this article formatting-wise as the text is easily readable and not interfered on by the images. Many other capital city article have comparable or in many cases more images than this article. For some examples see Buenos Aires, Bogotá, Caracas, Sao Paulo, Istambul (not capital), Guangzhou (not capital). After looking over these city articles, if anything I think more images should be added and we should figure out a way to properly format the article in a way that the text and the images complement each other making it easy to read. Deleting images is not a way to acomplish this. As the saying goes a picture is worth a thousand words and by deleting an image you might as well be deleting a thousand words of text from the article. Also, I previously re adjusted image sizes to some requests from some users however I still see this as a mistake. The manual of style are guidlines, not strict unbreakable rules and some city articles such as Bogotá, Buenos Aires, and Istambul have their images sized anywhere from 250-1000px.

Metropolitan Municipality of Lima vs. Provincial Council of Lima

What is the difference between the two? I thought the metropolitan council was the provincial council. Are you sure that the provincial council is not the council of the unconnected region of Lima? --Criticalthinker (talk) 05:25, 13 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think both are the same thing. I found some information on the Metropolitan Municipality of Lima website that it may be useful for you. Aucahuasi (talk) 05:19, 16 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Metropolitan Municipality is the entity which governs the Lima province. It is no diferent than any Provincial Municipality throughout the country except that it receives certain special rights due to it not belonging to any of the county's 25 regions. The provincial council is an actual legislative assemby of council members. consejo municipalidad Vivaperucarajo (talk) 01:44, 26 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If that is the truth, then one of them needs to be removed from the infobox because that is quite confusing as it is listed. It seems to imply that there is both a municipal and provincial council. If they are in fact one and the same thing, then all that we need to make reference to is the municipal council. --Criticalthinker (talk) 10:08, 27 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Article length

I think the article is rather long. For instance, the "History" section is longer than its main article! (History of Lima). The same goes for the "Subdivisions" section. According to Wikipedia:Summary style information in the sections should be a summary of their respective main article. For these reasons I think the article needs to be shortened. --Aucahuasi (talk) 05:56, 16 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, I think instead of removing information, we should enlarge the History of Lima main article itself to make it larger than the section on this page. I do not see how the removal of information is ever beneficial to an encyclopedia. The article, being a capital of a country, should be relatively large and many other capital city articles are of similar length. The article is just much longer than it previously was because new sections were added. With the exception of two of the three subdivisions of the history section, none of the sections are particularly long. Additionally all of the sections are relevant to the article and as such should not be removed. Vivaperucarajo (talk) 00:58, 26 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with Aucahuasi, the "History" section has grown out of all proportion. IMHO the problem is that the text tends to wander out of its main subject which is the city itself. For instance, the description of the conflict between Almagro and Pizarro and the explanation on the social order of colonial Peru are quite irrelevant in this article; they are a better fit for the Viceroyalty of Peru article. Wikipedia recomends using a Wikipedia:Summary style in its articles because very long articles are problematic. I think we should apply this guideline to the "History" section specially since we already have a History of Lima article. --Victor12 (talk) 02:01, 29 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I couldn't agree more, we should keep in mind that Lima is the current Peru Collaboration Effort, so our work should focus on improving this article to featured article status. There's a lot of work to do, perhaps it would be a good idea to follow the example of other featured articles about cities such as Delhi, Dhaka, Erie, Pennsylvania, Kochi, India, Minneapolis, Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia, etc which don't have its sections split into subsections. --Aucahuasi (talk) 19:09, 30 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Language

Just checking, or seeking opinions on this...I know the article has more serious issues. The section on language links to an article (Peruvian Coastal Spanish) that does not have verifiable citations or references. Statements like these seem non-encyclopedic:

"the lack of strong innotations as found in many other regions of the Spanish-speaking world. It is heavily influenced by the Spanish spoken in Castile as throughout the colonial era, the colonial Spanish nobility was based in Lima, of which most originated from Castile. [62] Limean Spanish is also characterized by the lack of voseo, a trait present in the dialects of many other Latin American countries. This is due to that voseo was primarily utilized by the lower socioeconomic classes of Spain" (emphasis mine).

This reads more like a historical account of high society in Lima...at best. At worst, it strikes me as a bit of elitist nationalism. Before someone jumps on my comments, I am originally from Lima. Rafajs77 (talk) 19:54, 8 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Demographics section longer than the main article

The demographics section is longer (and thus contains more information) than the main article: Demographics of Lima. This doesn't seem right.

American Embassy in San Borja?!

I lived for some time (1 year) in Lima, as far as I remember the Embassy is NOT found in San Borja but in Santiago de Surco (or short Surco), in Montericco (subdistrict of Surco). The same goes for Golf Club (in Surco). (I lived about 300 meter from the Embassy :-) )Link of US Embassy: http://lima.usembassy.gov/contact.html The article mentions la Molina, but there is, in my opinion, not to many interesting things to be found there, while Surco has: Golf Club, Jockey Plaza (A very large, kinda fancy shopping mall), horse tracks (Jockey plaza), American Embassy, and several university (UNiversidad de Lima, UPC). La Molina has the Agricultural State University (UNALM), Moliplaza (a small mall) and is a very nice residential area for middle to upperclass (although of course each middle to upperclass districts has its bad parts as well..). I wouldn't say La Molina is wealthy without including at least Surco. It has a lot of wealthy areas like is golf de inca (close to golf club), Casuarinas, Montericco, El Polo (in front of US embassy) and maybe support it with a citation?

I am not someone that ever contributed to Wiki, dont plan to write pages or something. I just thought this information should be out there, based on my personal experience, so some people can check it out and maybe correct it. They are all suggestions (althought the one of the Embassy is a strong suggestion ;-) )
