Outdated Information

[edit]

I have removed several outdated references, such as this one for the 'The 2nd DOCKANEMA festival is scheduled for September 14 - 25, 2007, and will include more than 80 films.' It being May 2009 now I thought it well that this information be removed, until someone with more knowledge can update that section, I have referenced the "Dockanema" website but it is in portuguese and as I am not fluent, I am not able to update this section with the relevant updated information about any upcoming events for 2009.

I will remove it for now, if someone knows of the next event by the collective and finds it warranted to be included in the city page then by all means re-add it.

Demographics

[edit]

Any stats on the city's demographics aside from its population count and 'notable residents'? Seems like a no-brainer. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.174.65.182 (talk) 06:37, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Reality & Relevance

[edit]

I have changed several parts of the article so that they are up to date and reflect the enormous changes that are taking place in the city. I have removed, or cut down on the points which represent the city negatively. I feel it is unjust to criticise it in that way, especially considering that much effort is being put into improving the city-life. So please do not alter the article by adding subjective information (sometimes done unconsciously) or elaborating it with a personal essay. I have also lived in Maputo, practically born there and have lived in the 1st world for several years now. Please give credit where its due. Maputo is not Stockholm.

NPOV

[edit]

Terms like "native" and "tribal villages" have associations that are not conducive to NPOV (what's tribal affiliation got to do with building maintenance?). Besides, Maputo was the centre of post-independence government and thus many of the people moving into Maputo were the new governmental and administrative elite (not sure of the exact numbers tho). And "all but destroyed" is putting it a bit strong. I've been visiting Maputo once or twice a year since the mid-90s and most of the pre-independence houses are/were still standing! Pretty run down, and services often cut, but hardly "all but destroyed".

Have rephrased this section in an attempt to make it more NPOV.

--ThirdWorldEye

Being born and raised there, I can say that most of the infrastructure existing today really IS rundown and in need of a revamp. It is sad to see that MozAl (Mozambican Aluminium), a joint South African-Australian venture recently setup near Maputo, accounts for about 2% (last time i checked) of total Mozambican exports. And this is an aluminium refinery(?) with a working force of less than 2000 people (once again, last time I checked, not taking into consideration further expansions they were carrying out). This project was undertaken in Mozambique and not South Africa, where the purified aluminium is then taken for shipping, because it is too polluting. Offer a few bribes to the government and they close both eyes on the environmental effects. Although Mozambique is in bad shape now, it is home, after all, and nothing will change that. There is also a lot of beauty to be found everywhere, its just that who is in charge should make a bigger effort for a better country.

The InTeRLoPeR

Date of establishment

[edit]

All the languages that were translated directly from English read, as this one did until now, that Maputo (Lourenco Marques) was founded in the "late 18th century"... However, those articles that are independent of this English one, namely the German and French ones, give more specific dates, in the late 19th century. The German article states that it was established (as Lourenco Marques) in 1875, while the French says this happened in 1876. I suspect "late 18th century" was an error that crept from here into several other languages. 70.16.251.230 22:26, 30 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Africans vs. non-Africans in Mozambique

[edit]

Today as in the past, the unskilled African majority lives in poverty for Western European and North American standards. Furthermore, the tribal/rural African had a totally different way of life linked with the natural environment, mystical traditions and subsistence economy. Licor (talk) 16:19, 24 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well, not according to the "Luso-tropicalist" view of the Estado Novo as in force after the 1960s (after the start of the liberation/terrorist wars). All, from Minho to Timor were equally Portuguese so I don't understand why the fantastic economic development of the period left the unskilled majority (why were they left unskilled?) behind. May be black Africans are genetically immune to modernization? Teixant (talk) 21:14, 24 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
It has nothing to do with the genes. Obviously, there was an unskilled white majority in mainland Portugal too. Portugal, from Minho to Timor, was a developing country facing a communist-inspired guerrilla movement. Licor (talk) 02:00, 25 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This is Portugal

[edit]

I removed the statement from the lead section that Maputo "was famous for the inscription 'This is Portugal' on the walkway of its municipal building". This statement is unreferenced and hardly belongs to the lead section. Interesting thing is that it was inserted by User:AP1MZ on 19 December 2010 (dif), almost 3 years ago! He inserted this statement without any explanation or discussion and without references. Vanjagenije (talk) 20:27, 12 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Agree!! Teixant (talk) 12:38, 24 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The statement was added by me in 2010 when I noticed it was no longer there. I have now added the source. It reflects the origins, culture and establishment of the city which is not possible quite so eloquently in any other way. Please be assured that I am not Portuguese, nor do I support or endorse their sordid political activities. I do however think they have contributed greatly to the development of the city and the article now accurately reflects this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AP1MZ (talk • contribs) 11:40, 1 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that the phrase might have some historical significance and therefore could be placed in the "Portuguese Rule" section, although without the Fondly, or at least mentioning who might look fondly at the sign still today. Teixant (talk) 18:58, 1 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I still do not think that the statement is relevant enough for the overall description of the city to be in the heading (it is not a question of source), but somebody else will deal with that. The statement now is neutral enough to be encyclopedic... Teixant (talk) 12:25, 2 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I moved this statement to the "Portuguese rule" section. The role of the wp:lead section is to "serve as an introduction to the article and a summary of its most important aspects"(see: WP:LEAD). This sentence does not belong to the lead section, as it does not summarize the article (there is nothing about it in the article), nor is it the "most important aspects" of the article.

Name in 1975-76

[edit]

It is presently represented as having been named "Lourenco Marques" right up until it was renamed "Maputo",and the name "Can Phumo" as having been expected but never enacted. However,the 1975 National Geographic Atlas uses "Can Phumo" and the annual supplements issued thereafter all say it was renamed Can Phumo at independence and then renamed Maputo on February 3,1976. Is it definite that Can Phumo was never official,as opposed to being superseded while there were still a lot of Lourenco Marques signs around?12.144.5.2 (talk) 22:17, 22 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

There is a legal document for the change from Lourenço Marques to Maputo (Decreto-Lei nº 10/76, de 13.01.1976:- A Capital de Moçambique passa a designar-se “MAPUTO”, e altera as designações de algumas Cidades e Localidades da República Popular de Moçambique. (BR nº 5, de 13.01.1976) but there is nothing (that I know) about any change from Lourenço Marques to Can Phumo (or KaMpfumo, currently the central district of the city of Maputo).

Does the law changing the name to Maputo specify that it was until that time named Lourenco Marques?12.144.5.2 (talk) 19:02, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I do not have the text of the law to correctly answer your question, I might be able to get it later in January. It seems that the name Can Phumo (or similar) was used by many people informally, until Samora Machel chose Maputo for purely political reasons (please see https://delagoabayword.wordpress.com/2009/11/01/as-alteracoes-toponimicas-de-maputo/ in Portuguese). I will come back when I get the text of the law. Teixant (talk) 16:18, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Articles on urban districts

[edit]

Hi, Shevonsilva, nobody is saying that is not important to have articles on the seven urban districts in which the province/municipality of Maputo is divided...my question is where are they? Do you see any other red links (links to articles that do not exist) in the article? Cheers, Teixant (talk) 18:57, 20 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The demographic history of the population of Maputo is missing

[edit]

Is there a way to add the history of the population of the city? It's quite rare for an article on a capital city of a sovereign state to omit it. Have they not kept the archives?--Adûnâi (talk) 10:05, 16 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
