City or town?

Is there any administrative reason to call Gagra a city? Otherwise I will change it to 'town'. sephia karta 15:43, 21 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see any. Most languages don't have the city/town distinction so calling an entity either way is largely arbitrary imho... Go ahead and change it if you feel it's necessary. Alæxis_¿question? 15:55, 21 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

My reasoning was that, to my knowledge, in English, city implies either 'city rights' or a population significantly higher than that of Gagra. sephia karta 16:08, 21 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Location Map

In this article it is already shown other map depicting Gagra's location in Abkhazia, two similar maps is not relevant, will be better if we add its location in Georgia, as it's done in other articles. --g. balaxaZe ★ 12:57, 24 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The location in Abkhazia map adds value as on the map of Georgia Gagra can only be shown as a point, rather than in its true shape. Since you propose changes to several Abkhazia-related articles it's best to discuss it at the Abkhazia WikiProject. Alæxis_¿question? 07:31, 29 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

No info of Abkhazian Genocide

While pro-Russian, pro-Kartvelian trivia is spread on all of the history section.

First of all, it is not western Georgia, it is Abkhazia for more than 2 millenia (Check Roman names of the region). Secondly Abkhazia was never annexed/conquered by Ottomans. Abasgia( safe for Apsilia kind of feudal anarchist system and Sadza with its local princes) were ruled by Acba dynasty till 1864. If you have such a claim you have to provide evidence, a few castles are not evidence(Britain has US bases all over). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.172.37.234 (talk) 20:04, 29 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
