replies: text: Bravo, we got User:MJCdetroit to activate a nice  "City Infobox ".  Now how about a section on Culture: Music, Monuments, Festivals, Carnaval, Theatres and Night life and maybe a section om Architecture now that there is as I understand, some pretty impressive homes and neighbourhoods, and also images of the city filled with people.

thread_title: Major Changes

message: I think that to dedicate a whole section to HOMS, a private project, is too much. What is needed is information about the health system in Santiago, not on a single private future project. I will eliminate it if no extra, meaningul information is added. The same regarding hotels; what is the reason of including hotels? And what about private clubs? And there is so much important information missing. --Pepemar2 (talk) 21:26, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

message: I have deleted half of the relative textin regards to HOMS. It is clearly posted with the purpose of advertisement. It has been removed and I will monitor the page to ensure it remains neutral.Kcuello (talk) 13:55, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: HOMS Advertisement

message: This subtitle needs some upgrades. There were three hotel's listed. As hotel's are not sites of interest (Unless there is a huge amount of history and international interest ex. Waldorf Astoria etc.) I have removed the three hotels. Kcuello (talk) 14:01, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

message: It appears that someone is twinning Santiago and Santo Domingo... the very definition of a sister city excludes this and cosenquently I will remove the Santo Domingo twin tag.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.161.65.185 (talk) 05:11, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Sister Cities

message: Please, the official name of the city is Santiago De Los Caballeros and thats the one that must be used under image captions  and in the article when necessary. Using the term "Santiago City" is not correct due to the fact that it omits part of the official name. It would be better if stated as the city of Santiago De Los Caballeros.EdwinCasadoBaez (talk) 06:11, 20 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually, IP editor, in English Wikipedia, that is not true. The most prevalent name used in standard English wins. Unfortunately, one may have to spend time figuring out whether "Santiago de los Caballeros" is the same thing as "Santiago, Domnican Republic" as the article, as written, does not explain the long, little used name. —RVJ (talk)  —Preceding undated comment added 22:14, 8 December 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Santiago de los Caballeros or Santiago City

message: i dont understand why La trinitaria, a small sector of santiago is portrayed in the main image as the whole city and the skyline...total nonsense, at least they should let the people know that it is La Trinitaria  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.49.7.125 (talk) 21:04, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

message: Please, use only population data from official sources. The last national census (and the official figures) was in 2002; all other figures are estimate and, in this case, the source of those estimates should be indicated. --Jmarcano (talk) 20:41, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

message: I see Santo Domingo has a nice montage while Santiago has a boring little picture. Some of the pictures placed in here were removed. Please this can be made much better.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.126.218.129 (talk) 21:26, 9 October 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: To Joke or not to Joke

message: The article currently claims, without a source, that "Santiago de los Caballeros" was named after the thirty gentlemen who signed its incorporation.  This strikes me as very dubious.  There is another city in Hispanic America whose official name was "Santiago de los Caballeros" (what is now known as Antigua, Guatemala).  In that case, it's clear that "Caballeros" refers to the Knights of St. James, one of the main Spanish orders of chivalry during colonial times.  Santiago (Saint James son of Zebedee) was the patron saint of the Spanish army, and the capitals of various colonial jurisdictions were named after him, particularly those under military government (see Captaincy).  Could someone please clarify, by citing a trustworthy source, what the origin of the city's name is, and who the thirty "caballeros" were? -- Eb.hoop (talk) 19:40, 26 August 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Name of the city

message: An anonymous IP is repeatedly inserting info about the Province of Satiago de los Caballeros, while this article is about the City / Municipality of Santiago de los Caballeros. Please, stop edit warring and explain the intention of yout edition. If there is no article about the Santiago Province, you can create it. Salut, --IANVS (talk) 23:25, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Santiago Province 

message: The article says that the city's population as of 2002 is 622,101, but apparently, there has been a big boom since 2002 because I read that the city's population has exceeded over 1.3 million. I have some family members in the D.R, and that's what they also tell me about Santiago's boom. Anyway, is there any way that change can be reflected? Willminator (talk) 00:44, 30 June 2011 (UTC)
