Please check your population figures for Panjim. These seem to be on the higher side.

[edit] Panjim or Panaji

In my experience it is only the Indian government that calls the place Panaji, everyone, not just English speakers call it Panjim.


Many locals call it ponjhe...rest call it panjim and some even panaji.....but mostly outsiders.

Yes, Panaji is the Hindi for Panjim, so therefore used for official government purposes. Panjim is the common usage and is the same in current Portuguese, not the old stuff. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.24.184.115 (talk) 22:17, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] You external link addition

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did in North Goa. Wikipedia is not a mere directory of links nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites that you are affiliated with, and links that exist to attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam policies for further explanations of links that are considered appropriate. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. See the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.

[edit] Konkani Wikipedia

Dear Konknni friends,

Konkani Wikipedia has been started and been in test stage since August 2006.

Kindly contribute towards the Konkani wikipedia. We intend to make it a multiscript

Wikipeida. At least tri-script with Roman ,Devanangiri and Kannada scripts since these are the most popular ones.

We would like to get more articles/templates in place. We also need volunteers to do the thankless and boring job of transliterating it to different scripts .

As of now only two members are making active contributions. The more the merrier. Your contribution is vital to its success.
