Suggested additional headings

Taking the lead from some other city pages, it looks like we probably need the following headings:

History

Origins

Geography

Topography
Climate

Governance Demography

Ethnic groups
Religion

Economy Cityscape

Planning
Architecture
Parks and gardens

Education Society and culture

Leisure and entertainment
Media and news
Literature and film
Music
Sport
Events

Transport

Roads
Buses
Air
Shipping

Communications

Postal
Telephone
Internet

Any other suggestions? Is anyone interested in doing some of this? --CloudSurfer (talk) 08:47, 17 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

History

edit

I've taken a quick look around elsewhere, but I can't find a date for the founding of Apia. It was there by the 1850s, though. [1] Aridd (talk) 15:04, 1 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Britannica says, in its article on Samoa: "By the 1850s a foreign settlement had sprung up around Apia Harbour." Aridd (talk) 19:05, 3 September 2008 (UTC)Reply


The Pool by Somerset Maugham

edit

Isn't this the place of the story The Pool by Somerset Maugham? --Ved from Victoria Institutions (talk) 17:29, 7 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Catholic cathedral

edit

The Catholic cathedral was demolished last month. Might be good to insert. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 123.176.77.173 (talk) 23:56, 2 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

College

I am writing because I just edited the education block. The Fia Malamalama-i-Siulepa College is in Western Samoa. If you have any concerns regarding this matter, please don't delete the school but e-mail me at skyemonylyricS@gmail.com Thanks! 65.167.226.241 (talk) 02:54, 25 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
