Talk:Dominican Republic–Haiti relations

Neutrality

The article does not seem to quote sources to support claims. The article seems to be written from a dominican view point. Statement of opinion should not be taken as facts. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cmo910 (talk • contribs) 19:10, 18 June 2016 (UTC)

On a similar note, I rewrote the epigraph The Disgorgement of Moca and Santiago as well as added references in English. Very little comments if any have been included about Slave Raiding including children. Fimbriata (talk) 23:38, 19 July 2017 (UTC)

Also lacking is information on Dessalines' slaughter of 1804 (se here). Fimbriata (talk) 05:38, 20 July 2017 (UTC)

Vandalism...?

The article seems to have either been vandalised or accidentally messed up somehow. As it stands, I have no idea what to do to try and help, so I just thought I'd point that out --82.11.180.235 (talk) 04:45, 6 January 2014 (UTC)

ADDENDUM: managed to revert the vandalism --82.11.180.235 (talk) 04:47, 6 January 2014 (UTC)

Socioeconomic and Racial differences between Haiti and DR

Predominantly African descendant people make up the bulk of the Haitian population, with the upper class in Haiti being mostly comprised of Mulattos and Levantine immigrants. The Dominican Republic differs in that it's population is predominantly mixed race, with the upper class being mostly comprised of European descendants. The "Mulattos" are not in any way associated with Dominican upper-class, unlike in Haiti. — Preceding unsigned comment added by IslandMan89 (talk • contribs) 05:21, 29 April 2014 (UTC)

Change map and flag order?

I noticed the Haitian flag under the Dominican Republic and the other way round with Dominican flag under the Haitian part of the island. Don't you think too it should be put in the right order? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ultracrax (talk • contribs) 18:17, 1 December 2015‎ (UTC)

@Ultracrax: Yes! Let me see what I can do, while we wait to hear if anyone objects. LLarson (talk) 05:57, 13 December 2015 (UTC)

Reverted (good faith edit) : No, this is incorrect. Should be alphabetical from left (always green) to right (always orange) as article name, thus color scheme in new picture file was incorrect. It makes no difference that it is Haiti on the left on the map. In the Haiti–Jamaica relations article, Jamaica is to the left but not green because "H" comes before "J" in the alphabet and the left is always green even though on the map, Haiti is situated to the right of Jamaica. @LLarson, @Ultracrax.

So, in this case the "D" in Dominican Republic comes before the "H" in Haiti and according to the template the preceding country is in green, the latter being orange and so it must match the map in such manner. It is worth noting however, that in Spanish and other Latin languages, Haiti usually comes first alphabetically as Republic precedes Dominican on every occasion as in "Republica Dominicana" in Spanish.

Annual Per Capita Income

After following the link to this article from Hispaniola, I noted a disagreement between its Economics section and this article's Cultural and economic factors section in the reported annual per capita income, despite citing the same source with the same update date. Checking the source, a USA Today article, I found that neither of the figures in Hispaniola and only one in this article match, and the differences are substantial. This leads me to wonder if USA Today updates their article periodically without changing the date. I intend to correct both articles and put a "Retrieved" note in their citations as a workaround, but if anyone knows a better way to handle this please implement it.

I am editing this article by adding a section on the river running between the Dominican Republic and Haiti, Masacre/Dajabón. It is a big part of relations, my edit describes the conflict over the river that led to the Dominican Republic closing its border to Haiti. KEDstudent (talk) 05:18, 5 December 2023 (UTC)
