Talk:Playa del Carmen

message: I added a link to SeePlaya to this article, as this site is (IMO) one of the best sources of up-to-date information about the city online. It was deleted after a spammer added a bogus link, and I think it should be readded. 
Link was:

replies: text: I would disagree. Wikipedia is not meant to be a travel directory or hotels guide, and that ext link is predominantly concerned with links to hotels & accommodation, with no evident or useful information on the town itself (that is not already contained in the article or available elsewhere). Pls refer to our External links guidelines. The links to DMOZ and Yahoo! directories should be more than sufficient, here.--cjllw ʘ TALK 06:05, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Population update? 

message: The first picture shown in this article is too old. The view from the ferry dock is completely different now, as extensive beach restoring works have been carried out. There is a very nice wide beach in front of those buildings. Somebody should  put in a new picture.142.243.254.224 (talk) 16:21, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

message: The correct pronunciation is "shkaret", not "eshkaret". The letter "x" stands for the "sh" sound in Maya (and means "she", just like in English). This is not difficult to English speakers, but is a problem to those who only speak Spanish and no Maya. Spanish doesn't have an "sh" sound and does not like two consonants at the beginning of the word. So you will often hear this pronounced "eskaret", but never "eshkaret". Those who can say "sh" can also say two consonants at the beginning of the word.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.243.254.224 (talk) 16:29, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

message: "one of the most laid-back main steets in the Americas"
Seriously? This has a typo, and is just marketing mumbo-jumbo, not actual information.
"a line of hotels, restaurants, bars and shops that can be walked without fear of cars."
Without fear of cars!? Because when I walk on sidewalks elsewhere, I am constantly in fear of cars. Terrible writing!  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.5.22.79 (talk) 05:47, 22 October 2011 (UTC)

message: I updated the name of the Mayor. I recently visited Playa del Carmen and I remember reading on the newspaper about the new elected Mayor María Cristina Torres Gómez. I went to the official website of the Municipality and I did confirm the information, this is the website :  http://www.municipiodesolidaridad.gob.mx/index.php by the way the website is already listed on the page.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by SAOI (talk • contribs) 00:24, 8 November 2016 (UTC)

message: Shouldn't this article contain information about the history of the town? I'd especially like to see some information around the resort development in the area. This article contains some information about the Mexican government's master plan for the Yucatan in the 1970's: https://yucatanmagazine.com/how-mexico-built-cancun-from-scratch/ Alan.lauer (talk) 19:38, 10 October 2023 (UTC)
