Misleading Information?[edit]

This sentence seems to be incorrect and is contradicted elsewhere Though Colombian police said that five people were involved, a preliminary investigation by the United States Southern Command[26] suggested that 11 people could have been involved.

There were both Military and Secret Service personnel involved. USSC reported on just the military personnel. A separate investigation occurred for the Secret Service.

Redundant information?[edit]

At some point, the list of the summits in the Overview section will be considered redundant. There is a navbox at the bottom of the page; and it presents similar data in an abbreviated format. --Tenmei (talk) 19:28, 30 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Juan Manuel Santos Quote[edit]

The 2nd line of the article in the opening para is regarding how the US should pay attention to Latin America and not Af/Pak. Is this really the central/key theme of the entire summit? I fail to see how this quote should be placed right up there instead of in the reactions section along with the other quotes or in the agenda section if the summit was really about US paying attention to Latin America. Chocolate Horlicks (talk) 04:53, 15 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Its the host presidents opening statement, but feel free to move it to the agenda somewhere. Or discussions even?Lihaas (talk) 02:03, 16 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Cool. Moved it to agenda rather than discussions, since it was said before the summit and not during (as mentioned in source). Chocolate Horlicks (talk) 10:16, 17 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

sex article[edit]

Should the Secret Service sex scandal become a new article. I think it should. There is plenty of information about the lead woman, who had overnight sex, has a 9 year old son, and whom was paid $225. It is not fair to the summit article to laden it with sexual details. Auchansa (talk) 05:34, 21 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I think it's too early to see any long-term effects. Right now, it is newsworthy, but Wikipedia isn't a newspaper. Time will tell of its lasting notability. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 22:08, 21 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The chapter should mention whether those Secret Service agents were on duty at the time and whether they were trying to refund the bills for prostitutes as travel expenses. Otherwise I do not understand why is there so much fuss about the thing. --Alvin-cs ✉ 22:26, 19 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
