A fact from El Cóndor Pasa (song) appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 12 May 2006. The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that the Peruvian song "El Cóndor Pasa" was popularised by a 1970 cover version by Simon and Garfunkel, although the original Quechua lyrics were entirely re-written?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2006/May.

Quote from Robles Godoy[edit]

As this is the English edition of Wikipedia, would someone care to translate the extensive quote from Robles Godoy? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Stoic Squirrel (talk • contribs) 01:25, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have translated the quote. I am a bit worried now that it does not add any new information as it says mostly the same as the body of the text.85.1.58.204 (talk) 16:15, 18 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Spanish version of "Condor Pasa" shows the true about this song, in english version, article is more based in cover in english and about legal issues due to copyright. El condor Pasa is a song considered national patrimony of Peru, It would be nice that you kindly consider translate the spanish version to english, so information for english-speakers will be according with reality. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.72.73.149 (talk) 14:31, 30 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Simon and Garfunkel single infobox[edit]

I Deleted the infobox for the Simon and Garfunkel single. This article is about the song, not about this particular cover of it, and that infobox give that one cover excessive emphasis, and kind of dominates the page.--Ericjs (talk) 01:47, 13 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Bad construction[edit]

The link to English people in the phrase "This song is known in English people due to the 1970 cover by Simon & Garfunkel" needs to be addressed for syntax and accuray. Simon and Garfunkel were from the United States, not England. O0drogue0o (talk) 18:58, 17 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Simon & Garfunkel singles chronology[edit]

The infobox for their single has Simon & Garfunkel featuring Los Incas singles chronology but Los Incas aren’t featured on the preceding and succeeding singles. Can this be fixed? —143.104.239.133 (talk) 13:10, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
