I am sad to hear about the decline of Barranquilla, the poverty rate is much more than I imagined. I still hear it is a beautiful city. My great grandfather was Karl C. Parrish and from what I know of him, he loved that city. I don't know much about my family's history there, though I plan on visiting soon. Thanks for the good information. If by chance you know any information about the state of Barranquilla or the Parrish family, I would love to know- I am just now trying to do some research. Thanks! emilyguerrera@comcast.net —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.199.240.96 (talk) 01:51, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
Barranquilla article in general
The article lacks a proper intro and sounds more of a POV of barranquilla refering to the city. It has two intros, which I don't see necessary! and has more information that the rest of the article. It's very disorganized and doesn't have any sources.-- Don Quijote's Sancho 15:01, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
"Barranquilla's peaceful territory is an isle amid Colombia's political problems" WOW! the pearl of POV's! --Don Quijote's Sancho 15:33, 26 April 2006 (UTC) It's true that the article needs some rephrasing. However, Barranquilla is not directly dealing with the most mediatised political problems in Colombia. ---moyogo 22:33, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
If you know some spanish, please feel free to visit local news #1 or local news #2. In case you don't understand spanish, the images will speak for themselves. --Don Quijote's Sancho 18:25, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
- There's crime and violent accidents in every city. What we need is some kind of statistics from a credible source. If we can cite such a source instead of just conveying a general impression, the article will be much more credible itself. ---moyogo 06:23, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
in the schools thers the international berckley school is a bilingual school
Barranquilla is called the "golden gate" because acording to the article it was the first in having many thnigs that other cities didn't have.although Barranquilla's harbor is not NOW the biggest but, it was the biggest one in his time, and was the first one in Colombia.
And about the bad news about Barranquilla every cities eventhough being the most importants in the world have many problems about security. is that clear Mogoyo?
please everybody don't look for bad things about other cities look for the good in yours, or is that yours doesn't have any possitive to say about?
The COLEGIO AMERICANO DE BARRANQUILLA is one of the best school in Barranquilla and one of the oldest ones, i think the oldest one (117 years old) important people grauated from it, the examples are Estercita Forero, Ernesto Cortizos, Romelio Martinez amoung others that have been important personalities for the Barranquilla's community.
El Colegio Aleman es la escuela mas grande & famosa en Barranquilla! boobylicious86
External links
Could someone whose Spanish is more facile than mine, check out the external links. I suspect that more than just the two I deleted are inappropriate per Misplaced Pages:External links. --Bejnar 01:25, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
The Diverse Peoples of Barranquilla
I can't imagine an entry discussing the multicultralism and the people of Barranquilla without any mention of the strong historic and contemporary imprint of enslaved Africans and their descendants throughout the region. There is nothing wrong with discussing Asian, European and other immigrants in the 20th century, but this entry fails to include the pivitol contributions of Africans to the culture and people of the region.
- feel free to add that info for us... with proper links plz.. --I am greener than you! 04:57, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
Multiculturalism
That section is a vulgar plagiarism from the Universidad del Norte web site. That's why I deleted it. And there is more... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.1.149.83 (talk) 01:50, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
