[edit]

This page says Yaounde has 1.4 million and is the 2nd largest city in Cameroon but the Wikipedia page for Douala says that city has 1.2 million. Which is the largest city? 4.142.96.98 00:16, 15 September 2007 (UTC)eric[reply]

The answer of your question is easy to give: it's very difficult to estimate the number of inhabitants of these very large african cities so everybody says something else. However Douala is the biggest city with betwenn 3 and 4 million people. Yaounde has about 2 million. 139.30.17.161 (talk) 22:20, 14 January 2008 (UTC) whogodabugadalogawahonahabu —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.244.223.8 (talk) 14:08, 1 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have done some grammatical and other slight modifications to this article. It is good, but requires further improvement.I am Nsah Mala.

I change the economy part of this article, and it still needs to be optimized. I am Ziyi Xu (talk) 02:28, 10 November 2016 (UTC)Ziyi Xu. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ziyi Xu (talkcontribs) 02:21, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

lack of references

[edit]

Much of the article (such as schools neglecting english...) are unreferenced. i don't care to find the correct template to add, so if someone else could... (the lack of capital letters is a protest against capitalism, my english is otherwise perfect.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.204.77.24 (talk) 16:39, 23 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Bad references

[edit]

I just added some of them, actually, but it seems like English-language sources have agreed on an 1887 or 1888 founding date for the settlement that (according to the detailed and presumably correct treatment on the German and French wikis) is simply wrong. I've left the dispute and the cites in the running text so far since Wiki ain't a source but we should find some English-language treatment of this error and explain it. — LlywelynII 10:30, 17 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Sources for article expansion

[edit]
  • This page has a map of Jaunde's set-up c. 1890 when it was still an ag station.

It's probably under copyright but there should be an original somewhere that isn't at this point. — LlywelynII 10:57, 17 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
