ÁI've put in an external link on the guaje tree, though obviously this should move to an article on the tree once someone writes one. seglea 22:19, 24 Dec 2003 (UTC)

What about adding a little bit about Malcolm Lowry and his novel Under the Volcano? Cataclysm12 00:02, 6 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Great novel, but it's set in Morelos, not Oaxaca. (Isn't it?) There's plenty to be added to the Under the Volcano article, though. Hajor 00:15, 6 Feb 2005 (UTC)

religion in oaxaca?

seriously, someone needs to put in something other than mormonism in that section. as far as i'm concerned, if a mormon temple is the only thing in the section, the section should be deleted until there's more information. i don't know enough to contribute myself, but i do know enough to know that the lds church is NOT the only game in town. i'd be REALLY surprised if it was the biggest. that section is a total travesty. if anyone can add to it, that would be greatly appreciated. I'll do research myself if i can. if not, can it just be deleted? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Neutralrobotboy 08:35, 25 January 2007 (UTC).Reply


I agree. I'm sure there's lots of Cathlolics there too, after all it is Mexico.... SeizureToday

im sure that the lds church is the fastest growing church in oaxaca and thats why there is so much talk of us —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.130.19.239 (talk) 22:26, 5 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Let's remember the obvious, our multicultural society is becoming more diverse--even in religion! Although much of the population identifies with being catholic or christian, people are learning to think for themselves and make decisions that diverge from Church teachings. Shamanism & Spiritualism in this region honors our ancestors, while calling upon us to use their wisdom, love, and inspiration to be better people, regardless of the building we worship in.Hopefulhope (talk) 05:37, 12 April 2008 (UTC)Hopefulhope (talk) 05:38, 12 April 2008 (UTC)hopefulhopeReply

Actually there is a large population of Babtist East of Puerto Escondido also. At one time or another there had to be a Babtist mission come to the area and teach. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 143.43.209.43 (talk) 15:55, 5 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Mitla as a Zapotec name

I don't think the name Mitla is Zapotec. es:Mitla says it is called Lyobaa or "place of rest" in Zapotec. Now, the name is Nahuatl is Mictlan "place of the dead"; I seem to recall reading that the name Mitla comes from Mictlan. 75.135.82.119 05:25, 19 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

NPOV problems: 2006 protests

It is possible to have diverse points of view about the 2006-7 protests. I have attempted to revise this section to meet NPOV guidelines. In particular the use of the terms "terrorist" and "thugs" to describe the APPO violates these guidelines. To call the APPO a "newly-formed political group" is merely factual, and does not imply approval of their beliefs or actions. To call them demonstrators does not imply approval of these demonstrations, while the term "thugs" clearly expresses an opinion. Having made these changes twice and seen them reverted, and wishing to avoid an edit war, I am alerting Wikipedians to the problem by inserting an NPOV warning in this section. Finn Froding (talk) 15:49, 24 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

I have reverted the use of "thugs" and "terrorists" in the past as well, and I agree they should not be used. The IP user who keeps inserting them does not seem interested in discussing the situation, so if he/she/it continues to revert them, I suggest they be reported for disruptive editing. --nsaum75¡שיחת! 03:37, 3 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
Since the IP has been blocked from making POV edits here, due to it being semi-protected, it has now moved onto the article that deals directly with the Popular Assembly of the Peoples of Oaxaca, making the same POV edits there. Since "it" does not seem to want to discuss its repeated POV edits, I have requested a semi-protect of that article too. --nsaum75¡שיחת! 03:51, 12 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

hi, i think the section is to big for this event, we shuold consider in reduce it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ivanpares (talkcontribs) 04:25, 5 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Hola Ivanpares, estoy de acuerdo. ¿Qué sugeriría usted? --nsaum75¡שיחת! 04:00, 12 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

pienso que del siguiente modo estaría bien, ya que se da una idea del conflicto y se sugiere la pagina a ver en caso de que se quiera profundizar más al respecto, pero no lo voy a cambiar hasta que usted y por lo menos otra persona de su visto bueno, ya que es un tema muy polémico. atentamente —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ivanpares (talkcontribs)

Actualidad

El 22 de mayo de 2006 se inició un conflicto magisterial; una huelga de profesores de la sección 22 del Sindicato Nacional de Trabajadores de la Educación (SNTE). El 14 de junio, el gobernador Ulises Ruiz Ortiz ordenó a cientos de policías intentar desalojar a los maestros. En respuesta a estos actos de represión cometidos por el gobernador diversas organizaciones, ONG y asociaciones forman la llamada Asamblea Popular de los Pueblos de Oaxaca, que exigía la renuncia del Gobernador.

Approximate translation:

2006 Protests

Script error: No such module "Labelled list hatnote".

On 22 May 2006 a teachers strike was began by teachers belonging to section 22 of the National Union of Education Workers (SNTE). On June 14, Gov. Ulises Ruiz Ortiz ordered hundreds of police to try to evict the protesting teachers from the buildings and streets they were occupying. In response to the governor's order, various organizations, NGOs and associations formed the Popular Assembly of the Peoples of Oaxaca (APPO), and demanded the resignation of Governor.

I can live with this pared down version, since there is already a large article devoted to the conflict. Comments??
Yo apoyo esta nueva versión, porque ya existe un artículo dedicado a las protestas. Comentarios?? --nsaum75¡שיחת! 05:33, 12 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Im for it as well.... this event should not have undue weight considering the state´s long history.Thelmadatter (talk) 20:25, 12 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Governor's political party

Hi everybody. I was checking the page, and I saw that the page says the current governor is from PAN and PRD. That is incorrect, because although those parties supported him to be governor, he's not a member. His party is Convergence (Convergencia). I hope someone takes care of it and in some other pages, and even maps! Thanks. 189.221.213.205 (talk) 06:04, 5 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

Recorded pronunciation of Oaxaca

The attached ogg pronunciation sounds non-standard to me. The speaker pronounces a soft "g" at the beginning, which is not indicated in the pronunciation marks given, or any other source that I can find. I suspect that it is a regional accent. Do we want that? (I am not a native Spanish speaker.) Leotohill (talk) 04:25, 3 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

Crime

Did I miss the info about crime? Nicmart (talk) 04:34, 30 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Because there is no crime in Oaxaca! (Or no one has written about it). (CC) Tbhotch 04:40, 30 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
