Talk:Viana do Castelo

Wrong title
Hi. Viana Do Castelo is a wrong title. The word "Do" in portuguese means "of" and when in place names is always written with a lowercase "d". Pages should be merged. There's also the case of page "Viana do castello". No two "LL" appear in portuguese words. It's a case for speedy deletion based on wrong title but I don't know which rule applies.

 * There is no need to delete this page. As long as it's spelled Viana do Castelo it does not need to be erased.

Comments
1. "The settlement of Viana da Foz do Lima, which it was called when King Afonso III of Portugal issued a foral (charter) on 18 July 1258, was a formalization of the 1253 Viana that the area was named."

This sentence needs revision.

2. The "Culture" section is not at all about culture.

3. "In 2010, Viana do Castelo started to implement a project of rehabilitation of the city called Viana Criativa which is based on an investigation made by Paulo Caldeira among 4 years."

The word "among" in this sentence does not make sense. I suspect it's the direct translation of the Portuguese word "durante" so it should really be "for".

4. "Once upon a time, Viana was the second center of commerce of Portugal and some investigators are now recognising that fado music was born based on the typical songs of Minho region."

Aside from the fact this sentence lacks a citation, the end of it is unclear and needs to be rewritten.

5. All images in the gallery have caption that says "Viana do Castelo, Portugal". This is ridiculous. Each should have its own description.
