I believe it's very important to keep images on the article.Crazyaboutlost (talk) 15:13, 27 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

Not images based on false statement. Nova Petrópolis is almost entire German-Brazilian, not Czech at all. The source you put does not even claim it is a "major Czech settlement". With a mere population of 5,000 people in entire Brazil, the Czechs are nowhere a "major" population in any Brazilian town.

Do you know what the word "major" really means?? I guess you don't. Opinoso (talk) 14:01, 29 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

Actually I do know the meaning. I'll explain it to you: by saying that "Nova Petropolis is a major Czech settlement in Southern Brazil" I mean that Nova Petrópolis is the "greatest in number, quantity" Czech settlement in Southern Brazil. It's quite diferent saying that "Nova Petropolis is a settlement major Czech in Southern Brazil"
If you're so confused, I can change to some words that you will be able to understand.Crazyaboutlost (talk) 16:21, 29 October 2008 (UTC)Reply
The source does not claim Nova Petrópolis has the "greatest in number, quantity" of Czechs in Brazil. Anybody who has already been to Nova Petrópolis (which probably is not your case) knows it is a German-Brazilian town, there's nothing Czech about it. Moreover, nobody needs to go there, because there are no sources claiming it is on the Internet. You are inventing this information. Please, assume a good-faith and do not make new resources.

It doesn't matter here if Nova Petropolis received more German or Czech immigrants, because this is not an article about "German Brazilians", but about "Czech Brazilians".
There are 2 million people of Japanese origin in Brazil.[1] That's just a little more than 1% of the Brazilian population, but it doesn't matter -- Brazil does is a major centre of people of Japanese origin!
Nova Petropolis is one out of three cities in Brazil to which the Czech government sends teachers to teach the Czech language every year (the others being Sao Paulo and Bataypora). Why not Rio de Janeiro or Belo Horizonte for instance? Obviously because there are many people of Czech origin in Nova Petropolis, since Nova Petropolis is originally a major settlement of Czech immigrants to Brazil.
And the ties between Nova Petropolis and the Czech Republic surpass its original demographic nature, being nowadays also of cultural and economic orders, what I think should be added to the article.[2] [3] [4] [5] [6]
Finally, if you argue that Nova Petropolis is not one of the major centers of Czech immigration to Brazil, you should provide evidence on all the other centers which would be the major ones instead of just deleting the citation. (Hansch (talk) 21:30, 17 February 2009 (UTC))Reply

I corrected the number of "Czech Brazilian" to match the source mentioned: 5.000, not 500.000. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2804:14D:5C70:9C92:8908:D45D:7DCD:FB48 (talk) 19:28, 21 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
