Talk:World Heritage Site
From Academic Kids
While this is an interesting page, the way certain items are linked seems odd. For example, Syria has "The Historic City of Damascus, which links nowhere, but there is an article on the city of Damascus, etc. Should these links be rconfigured to conform to Wikipedia links, or should they be left as is until an article on the specific World Heritage site appears? Danny
I suggest, as I have done for the sites of China and France, to link what is linkable to Wikipedia articles. In the case you are mentioning, the result would be : The Historic City of Damascus. If in the future, if someone feels like writing a specific article on The Historic City of Damascus, then this author will make the link change. In the meantime, linking what is linkable alows the readers to gather as much information as possible about the Site. - User:Olivier
Selection process
It would be nice to add a little about the selection process to this article - I imagine there is a good deal of politics involved. And perhaps some explaination on why some countried are choc-a-block with Unesco sites (like France) while others are near devoid of them (eg Nigeria). I doubt it has much to do with different amounts of history in each country. Seabhcán 12:47, 16 Dec 2004 (UTC)
