[edit] Naming

Should Saint Martin and Saint Maarten have their own articles or two? Or one article for the island in general and two for the countries? I'm not sure, but I did make a redirect from Saint Martin/Saint Maarten to this article for now. Maj 14:09, 10 January 2007 (EST)

I don't believe it's necessary, as the the two Parts make only one Island.Claire Renton 18:52, 15 February 2008 (GMT)

I don't think it needs to be two articles, however seeing as this is a Travel Website and most tourist enter and stay on the Dutch Side of the island, The article should be called St. Maarten / St. Martin.

I agree. However, the backslash in the article title would break our breadcrumb navigation. Would another way of naming it work? Perhaps Saint Martin-Saint Maarten? --Peter ^Talk 15:30, 12 May 2009 (EDT)

[edit] Get In

Recommend the link to "Windward Islands" be deleted. Appears to be third-party aggregater. —The preceding comment was added by 67.190.215.59 (talk • contribs)

They don't so much as have a central office on the island, so I've removed the listing per Wikitravel:External links. --Peter ^Talk 16:23, 10 August 2009 (EDT)

[edit] Do section

Suggest someone knowledgeable revise entry about casinos under "Do" to reflect a more factual discussion, and revise inaccurate statements, e.g., casinos are found on both ends of the island. Current content reads like an advertisement, and tour guides during several visits there state that there are no casinos on the French side. —The preceding comment was added by 24.127.238.196 (talk • contribs)

There are no Casino's on the French Side as yet. —The preceding comment was added by Hpqt (talk • contribs)

[edit] Understand

Someone should monitor the legal status of the government of Dutch side of the island. Online news articles indicate Sint Maarten will become an independent country Fall of 2010. John Henne - hennejon@aol.com
