[edit] Merge
Kaminia (Piraeus), Greece should be merged into the main article on the city. It doesn't seem to be notable on its own. Eluchil404 21:26, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
The page has been edited accordingly. I believe the page should now be merged into Piraeus with its own subcategory. Thank You.
Piraeus is noteable on its own because of its significance for classical and literary study, (particularly the long poem by H.D. titled "Toward the Piraeus")
It is also mentioned in Plato's Republic in the opening lines of Book I "I went down yesterday to the Piraeus with Glaucon the son of Ariston"
- It appears the article, Kaminia, should be rewritten without the personalization of the remarks and included in this article on Piraeus with its own subheading, since it is an alleged neighborhood of Piraeus. See my remarks in Discussion under Kaminia... Stevenmitchell 12:02, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
I think that the article about Kaminia shouldn't be added unless the articles about Nikeai, keratsini etc are added as well. I mean Kaminia is a seperate perfectory, isn;t it? Thank you D.
- I suggest the Kaminia Page be merged with this one, and we'll figure out what to do with it then. It's nothing but a neighbourhood of Pireas. El Greco 23:15, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] transliterations
I believe the transliterations for ancient/katharevousa and modern greek are messed up... can someone find out? Teentje 20:55, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Greater Piraeus
I think that the area (50.4 km2) and the population (466,065) of greater Piraeus should be added in the infobox.
