Opening comments

indeed one of the more resouceful place for Guyana. it is uncomon to find a source with information on Guyana that isn't biased

and to all those Guyanese out there check this kool site i found - The Black Magic Lounge [1]www.blackmagic-lounge.com - for Guyanese by Guyanese

Map

A controversy has erupted over the choice of map for this article. The two candidates are shown here, along with any others that other Wikipedians may choose to enter. Feel free to make any comments. The lower map may also appear in the corresponding Geography article for this country. Kelisi 03:23, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I prefer the lower Kelisi map, --SqueakBox 03:28, Apr 2, 2005 (UTC)

i belive the lower map is two detailed to include alongside article text and i dislike breaking the flow of the text with images. Plugwash 00:47, 28 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

There is also a border contreversy with Venezuela. 2/3 of Guyana is claimed to be Venezulian (the reclamation zone known as Guyana Esequibo). I don't have much information on that but you can have a look on venezualian maps http://www.vheadline.com/graf/Venezuela_mapa_politico.gif

and see this website http://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/ve_gy.html for further information. It might be interesting to mention it.

I would like to announce the establishment of the Wikipedia:Caribbean Wikipedians' notice board. Anyone with an interest in the Caribbean is welcome to join in. Guettarda 1 July 2005 04:03 (UTC)

Template:Guyana-stub & - I had created these at the time because Guyana was the only country along with Suriname not to have a separate stub section. Reason being all Guyana and Suriname stubs were simply thrown into the large list on If this does get deleted as planned I suggest anyone creating an article about Guyana include at the bottom so you wont have to fish one-by-one through the long list for any Guyana articles on 'Category:South America stubs' in the future.
