Cambodia To-do:

edit
history
watch
purge

Let us work in the best reference and presentation of archaeological sites of Cambodia beyond Angkor like Sambor Prei Kuk, Angkor Borei (Takeo), etc.

Should disambiguate Republican Party for Democracy and Renewal and generally try to link up social conscience with right-wing values.

I'm looking for the best picture or any informations about the KAF's U-6 (Beaver). It seem that the KAF had 3 aircrafts. But in 1971, during the viet cong's sapper attack at the Pochentong Air Base,at least 1 Beaver was destroyed.In 1972 at leat 1 Beaver was refurbished with a new engine. http://www.khmerairforce.com/AAK-KAF/AVNK-AAK-KAF/Cambodia-Beaver-KAF.JPG

old comments from 2007[edit]

A large portion of this article is a copyright violation copied from palmvillage.com which is a hotel site fer chrissakes [1] Hardly an authoritative site on Siem Reap town. I'll give it a day or two for courtesy and then it gets nuked. Paxse 16:15, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Request![edit]

The Coordinates on Infobox Settlement template of this article(13°N 21°E) seem to be wrong. Can any body check it? Best Regards. --Kiensvay | Kiensvay(Talk on kmwiki) 08:52, 2 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

meaning?[edit]

I've been told by a Cambodian that "Siem Reap" means "siamese law". What's about?

I've been only thriough Takéo Province close to the Vietnamese border of An Giang, studying the Khmer Krom.

No, the article is correct. It means 'Thailand the defeated' or thereabouts. Sean.hoyland - talk 02:38, 4 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright violation[edit]

Once again the guidebooks are being plagiarised for content - this time Nick Ray's old Lonely Planet article - anybody else feel like nuking it this time? Takers? --Paxse (talk) 17:02, 28 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

info[edit]

I personally think that this article is great, knowledgable and informative. I would say Siem Reap have many things to talk and describe about. An article could not meantion what it's all about.

The name[edit]

Sometimes the name of the city is spelled as Siĕmréab (see http://global.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/543286/Siemreab). I think this needs to be mentioned in the article.

Coordinates[edit]

You haven't said what you think is wrong with the coordinates in the article, and they appear to be correct. If you still think that there is an error, you'll need to supply a clear explanation of what it is. Deor (talk) 17:25, 6 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Siem Reap city[edit]

Reads like an advert[edit]

Some of the information under 'attractions', 'notable sites near Siem Reap', 'local specialties' and 'transportation' read to me like an advertisment for tourism, especially the section detailing where to buy brandy in 'local specialties', and the instructions for how to get between Bangkok and Siem Reap in 'transportation'.
