Corrections

The first paragraph of the lede has a dead reference. I'm not sure how to remove it without causing damage. Would someone more computer savvy than I am please do so. Also, I updated the currency conversion rate and added a date. American In Brazil (talk) 12:14, 25 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It's very non neutral to refer to the city as a dystopia, this should be mediated somehow — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.189.132.164 (talk) 06:26, 11 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

maps and plans

this appears to have found its way here by mistake "
Sketch of the city of Vera Cruz done by the Commission of Location of the New Federal Capital in 1954 ^[why?]
" --probably because the caption contains the word "plano". It is important to realize that in this case it means map. There are places in the article where it is difficult to translate something to do with the axiometry and it would be nice if a Portuguese architect looked at that Elinruby (talk) 03:55, 20 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- This turns out to be the cross that took possession back in the first plan, I think. Do not remove.

other translator issue: "scheme" is usually something clever but definitely wrong in English. In Portuguese it can be used in a neutral way to describe a plan project that involves cooperation. I believe that is the intended meaning in the lede of this article and if nobody objects will change it to "project" Elinruby (talk) 04:03, 20 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
in Romance languages "important" as used at the end of the Demographics section usually means "large". This should be verified, referenced and fixedElinruby (talk) 04:13, 20 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

History

There needs to be more recent history, e.g., the stadium that opened in 1974. Kdammers (talk) 18:57, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
