Grammar[edit]

This article desperately needs a re-write to correct the terrible grammer that currently plagues it. Layout is alright, but the writing is pretty bad. Jamesg 15:28, 20 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I know nothing about the city, but I tried to correct some of the grammar in passing. Salsa man (talk) 12:48, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

unfindable reference?[edit]

In searching for typos to fix I found "L. Damaes: "Studed' Epigraphy d'Indonesia IV. 1952". I did several searches trying to discover what "Studed" should be corrected to, but the only references I could find were mirrors/copies of the article. L. Damaes and the epigraph don't seem to exist outside of this. BlackcurrantTea (talk) 04:42, 3 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
