Saint Augustine, Florida is the oldest continually-inhabited city in the continental United States, but Pensacola, Florida is the oldest settlement in the continental United States by roughly six years. Should the reference to Saint Augustine be reworded, or should Pensacola be recognized and referenced? Warpflyght 09:44, Apr 7, 2005 (UTC)

Question

When was San Juan officially designated the capital of Puerto Rico? jengod 19:54, Jun 6, 2005 (UTC)

who discovered hawii>

San Juan is not the oldest city in the United States.

I removed the reference to San Juan being the oldest city in the United States for a couple of reasons. 1. San Juan is not the oldest city even if it is considered part of the United States, several cities in Hawaii have been continually inhabtied long before San Juan was founded - that is also why St. Augustine is specfically called (in the Wiki article as well) the oldest European city in the United States. So San Juan is definently not the oldest city in the US or its territories. 2. Also Puerto Rico is a territory of the United States and is described as such in the Wiki article Puerto Rico but is not actually part of the US, i.e the 50 states and the District of Columbia. - I changed the sentence to "San Juan was founded ..... and is the oldest city on Puerto Rico. --Nikostar 16:18, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

San Juan IS the oldest European City in the United States

Firstly, Hawaii was discovered by Captain Cook in 1778, yes, there were indigenous groups established on Hawaii before that, but as for cities founded on Hawaii, only those after 1778 count. Secondly, St. Augustine is the oldest Europeon city in the continental United States. San Juan is the oldest City under the United States umbrella, which includes States and territories. Thirdly, Puerto Rico is a Semi-Autonomous state or Territory of the United States and would be considered a PART of the United States.

• Puerto Rico is not consider part of the united states. It is a territory wich belongs but is not part of the United States.Nnfolz 05:14, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

Puerto Rico has a metropolitan area of about 2 million,not 1.3 million

Its the cities of San Juan,Bayamón, Carolina, Guaynabo, Cataño, Toa Baja,Caguas,Trujillo Alto,Toa Alta and Canovanas.

1.3 million is the population of the Urban Area of the Metropolitan Area

Canóvanas, Toa Baja, Toa Alta and Caguas are not part of the Metropolitan Area. Joelito (talk) 16:30, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

According to Guía Metro - Area Metropolitana (Puerto Rico) ISBN 0977195228 the Metropolitan Area is composed of San Juan, Bayamón, Carolina, Cataño, Guaynabo, Toa Baja, Trujillo Alto. Joelito (talk) 16:41, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

I think your partly mistaken joelito. if i'm nt mistaken, Caguas is now considered part of the metropolitan area.Nnfolz 20:08, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

In the World some cities located 50+ miles from the Metro Area are considered part of the metropolitan area.

Theres also a Metro Area and an Urban Area(in the metropolitan areas)

The Metro Area would be the municipalities I said before and the Urban Area San Juan, Bayamón, Carolina, Cataño, Guaynabo, Toa Baja, Trujillo Alto.

BTW - I think by World standards all of Puerto Rico could be considered a Metropolitan Area since it is so little and with that amount of people.

I don't think so. But, the Metro Area is 2,052,000 people if I'm not wrong according to Almanaque Mundial Rashid

It would be helpful to know which municipalities are considered part of the Metropolitan Area in Almanaque mundial. Joelito (talk) 21:38, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

GA review (2007)

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section.

I'm going to put this GA on hold until the following have concerns have been addressed, most of them being just wording problems:

Lead

• "San Juan (IPA: [saŋ hwaŋ]), named after Saint John the Baptist (Spanish: San Juan Bautista) is the capital and largest city of Puerto Rico. The latest census estimates place the city's population at 433,733, making it the 42nd-largest city under the jurisdiction of the United States." - Shouldn't there be a comma somewhere here? Because if we remove the brackets and their contents it would read: "San Juan, named after Saint John the Baptist is the capital and largest city of Puerto Rico..." so shouldn't it read "San Juan, named after Saint John the Baptist, is the capital and largest city of Puerto Rico..."? Done
• "San Juan was founded by Spanish colonists in 1521" - Shouldn't 1521 be wikilinked? -Done
• "Today San Juan serves as Puerto Rico's most important seaport" - A bit of a POV here - Try and say "according to X, San Juan serves as Puetro Rico's most important seaport" or you could say "[...] most important sea port, as..." -Tweaked line a little, please review it to see if it's still POV in your opinion
• Reads: "The city of San Juan was called Puerto Rico meaning "rich port", and the entire island was called San Juan. The capital and the island's names were later accidentally switched." No citation; I'm not sure if the above quotation is true. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.250.212.239 (talk) 03:27, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

History Section

• Something wrong with the position of note 5 - Notes should be after punctuation marks, see WP:FOOT Done
• "A year later, the settlement was moved to a site then called Puerto Rico (meaning "rich port" or "good port") after its similar geographical" - No need for brackets here, it would read and look so much better IMO if you used commas instead of brackets and also re-worded it a bit so it would read, "...then called Puerto Rico, Spanish for "rich port" or "good port", after..." Done
• "San Juan was an important settlement of the Spanish Empire" - Stepping into POV territory again, who said that this was the most important port of the Spanish Empire. Tweaked line to avoid POV
• "For these reasons San Juan became a target of the foreign powers of the time." - Wouldn't mind a reference for this...please?Done
• "San Juan's great fort" - How is it a "great fort"? POV again. Done

Demographics

• Not really needed to pass this review, but if your planning to take this article to FA then what I'd like to see in this section is a graph to go alongside the table so one can just take a quick look at this section to see the increase in population.

• I seriously don't think that you should refer a demographic as 'Some other race'. I think it should be changed to simply 'Other' to be more professional and less offensive. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dylanhasanose (talk • contribs) 03:10, 20 June 2013 (UTC)

Sports

• In the list of sporting events, why is the use of full stops inconsistent? Done
• Try and use a table for teams section, see Washington#Professional Sports and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania#Sports, it looks much more neater. Done

Notable "Sanjuaneros"

• Considering this is the English Wikipedia, shouldn't the section be "Notale Resisdents" and then have a sentence saying that "Sanjuaneros" is the name for people from Puerto Rico as there doesn't appear to be any other mention of this word apart from the Section header. Done

Other then those points it's a well made article and you should be pleased of how well it's been written. Just a quick note on why I'm addressing these POVs (Points of View) - The fact is that such claims within the article shouldn't be there (or at least written like that) because it will potentially draw critism towards Wikipedia - A way 4u1e and myself found a way around this on the Tom Pryce article was to cite the person who made the comment, in Pryce's case it was David Tremayne, that way any critism can be diverted from Wikipedia to them. A small role play IMO may help clear this up:

• Reader: Hey look, according to Wikipedia, San Juan has the most important seaport in Puerto Rico...
• "Wiki-Critic" Brother: No it isn't, because Wikipedia isn't reliable.

Now, if you said "according to X..." it would be much more different:

• Reader: Hey look, according to [Beep], San Juan has the most important seaport in Puerto Rico..."
• "Wiki-Critic" Brother: Oh...

See, that shut him up ;-).

Anyway, I'll be keepign my eye on this article and hopefully in a weeks time I'll be passing this article ;-). --Phill ^{talk Edits} _{Review this GA review!} 14:01, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

Good Article

This a GA but it would be nice if a lot of more info and details of the city be added.The City is rich in content why not add more details about its economy,government or anything else?EdwinCasadoBaez 05:52, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

San Juan: oldest city.... ????

I removed the statement about San Juan being the oldest city in the United States and would consider removing the statement about it being the second oldest in the Americas unless some proof is given to back up tha claim. The current citation given is a link to a Puerto Rican tourism website and nowhere on that webpage does it claim the city is the second oldest in the Americas. Somebody will need to back that claim up or it be edited out. I removed the statement about the United States because it categorically is not true. It may well be the oldest European settlement in the US/a US territory but it is absolutely not the oldest continously inhabited city/settlement in the US or its territory. Even St. Augustine, Florida on the mainland which also claims an "oldest title" is referred as the oldest EUROPEAN-founded city in the continental US (see article). There are several cities in Hawaii or even Guam such as Lihue which had been inhabited for centuries before Europeans arrived in the Americas, another examples is Taos Pueblo a settlement/town which has been inhabited for thousands of years up to the present. I am only writing so much about this because this claim keeps reappearing here and has not been proven. --84.153.50.69 19:11, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

Old San Juan is indeed the oldest European founded city in the US, St. Augustine is the oldest city in the continental United States, Puerto Rico is outside the continental space of the US. -凶 21:32, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

Yeah I should have been more clear with the St. Augustine reference. I was not disputing that San Juan is an older European-founded settlement than St. Augustine; I actually only wanted to bring attention to the fact that the St. Augustine article mentions that the city is the oldest European-founded in the continental US. The San Juan article claimed to be the oldest city in general. The current wording (founded by Europeans) seems okay to me.--84.153.50.69 23:10, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

I have added the following "Puerto Rico's capital is the oldest European-established city of the United States, followed by St. Augustine, Florida, and the second oldest European-established city in the Americas, after Santo Domingo, in the Dominican Republic." By using "of the United States" and not "in the United States", I sidestep the political status debate, which has no place in the first paragraph of this article (even though I could make a case regarduing "in", instead of the more neutral "of").

This is an important historical fact that San Juan and Puerto Rico celebrated in 1971, when the city turned 450, and which it will again celebrate in 2021, when it turns 500, according to Mayor Santini. Pr4ever (talk) 16:49, 5 July 2010 (UTC)

The introduction of St. Augustine into this article makes the article sound awkward. The reason is that this article is about San Juan, not St. Augustine. As an example, in an article about George Washington we wouldn't say George Washington was the first president of the USA with John Adams being the second president of the USA (but, in an article about John Adams we might say John Adams was the second president of the USA with George Washighton being the first president of the USA, though even that would still have a trace of awkwardness as we can see. In other words, a possible exception might be if St Augustine was the oldest city and San Juan was the second oldest.) Thus St. Augustine has no place in this article, and certainly not in the lead. On this basis the previous version is the more encyclopedic version of the two, and I have restored it. My name is Mercy11 (talk) 02:15, 6 July 2010 (UTC) and I approve this message.

If your objection is to the mention of St. Augustine, would preserving "the oldest European-established city of the United States and the second-oldest European-established city..." be acceptable? Otherwise, we should do away with both references, since being second in something is no more relevant than being first in something else. I won't reedit yet, awaiting your response and hoping we can reach a consensus. Pr4ever (talk) 10:45, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

I agree with Pr4ever's claim but believe there should be some corrections done. First, we should avoid using the term "oldest city" (whether in the US or in the Americas), and refer to San Juan as a settlement and not a city for it could be argued that by the time San Juan became a city there were many other European founded settlements that had become cities in the Americas and in the USA, not leaving behind the ambiguities that can arise by defining the size required to become a city. Second, I would prefer the use of "oldest under U.S. jurisdiction" for Puerto Rico is an insular dependency of the U.S. and not an integrated part of it. I found a citation that actually expresses the information the way it should -"Established in 1521, San Juan is the second oldest-European-founded settlement in the Americas, after Santo Domingo, and the oldest under U.S. jurisdiction." javierpuertorico (talk) 15:15, 6 July 2010

Considering also javier's recent comments, I see 4 distinct problems with the edit I objected to, as follows:

(1) Per WP:Lead, entries made in the lead should be a summary of information found later in the article. "Significant information should not appear in the lead if it is not covered in the remainder of the article." Problem: This oldest city/settlement topic is never mentioned in the article again.

(2) Also per WP:Lead, entries made in the lead should be expanded later in the article (that is, the summary in question in the lead should be found later in the article disucssed together with additional supporting, ancilliary, information of related topics.) "The lead section should briefly summarize the most important points covered in an article in such a way that it can stand on its own as a concise version of the article...Editors [should] avoid lengthy paragraphs and over-specific descriptions, because the reader will know that greater detail is saved for the body of the article." Problem: The information provided goes into over-specific descriptions that could be accomodated later in the article.

(3) In general, the introdution of St. Augustine-anything in the lead, tends to dilute the effect of the oldest city/oldest settlement in the Americas presentation, making this part of the lead sound cumbersome, almost fabricated. The article is best left with the 2nd oldest in the Americas: it's more effective. To exarcerbate this, I do not believe most people can tell the difference between "in the US" and "of the US". If there is a difference, that, too, should be explained later in the article - with citations, otherwise the alleged difference will start approaching WP:OR. This is another reason to leave the lead as it was. Problem: Difference between "in the USA" and "of the USA" never stated.

(4) As if this wasn't enough, St. Augustine is also claiming "oldest" in the USA title. Now, this article (as the edit suggested) gives the impression of also claiming oldest in the USA title for San Juan. Unless the reader is a member of the US Supreme Court deciding an Insular Case, the reader cannot see a difference between "in the USA" and ""of the USA". This is a lead tease. Problem: The edit gives the appearance of disputing the "oldest" title claimed by St. Augustine, Florida.

My name is Mercy11 (talk) 04:39, 8 July 2010 (UTC) and I approve this message.

I find acceptable the citation that Javier found and suggested. It is factual, short and sidesteps the political status debate, as no one is in disagreement that Puerto Rico, in whatever shape or form, is "under U.S. jurisdiction". Any objection to including it in the article? Pr4ever (talk) 11:27, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

The previous one from Magaly Rivera was objectionable to some; the one from LonelyPlanet is a good source, and I too would find it acceptable. If we can stick to as close to verbatim as possible it would be beneficial, for others may object to a different form for political or other reasons. Regards, Mercy11 (talk) 15:27, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

San Juan was the location of the 2nd annual G8 summit

Anyway, city size isn't exactly relevant to the organization of these summits, economic stability and location might be, next year's summit will take place in La Maddalena, which is actually smaller than San Juan (especially in terms of population and economy) and nowhere near being considered a "big city". - Caribbean~H.Q. 21:58, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

Why Cititations on San Juan's sister cities?

Obviously, it makes no sense, seeing as how Dubai and Caracas picked San Juan as a sister city, so there's no reason to place all sister cities as Citations. Why? 'Cause the older link is defective and is out of date. JMBZ-12 (talk) 23:11, 21 November 2010 (UTC)

The citations are needed because this is not WP:CK. If there is 1 single citation that includes all of SJ's sister cities that would be ideal. My name is Mercy11 (talk) 20:04, 16 December 2010 (UTC), and I approve this message.

Well, I did find a source on sister cities for San Juan, such as Dubai and Caracas. If it's deemed unsourceful, then I will change it back. JMBZ-12 (talk) 21:04, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

Country

Someone has taken it upon himself to take San Juan, the oldest non-Native American founded city in the US out of the country. If the unidentified contributor wants to debate this issue, he should do so here and not through non-factually-baed edits. Pr4ever (talk) 15:53, 7 April 2011 (UTC)

According to the history, it was/is not only unidentified contributors making this change. This (along with vandalism) was a contributing factor in applying full protection today. —MJCdetroit ^(yak) 17:42, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

Page Protection = semi

After reviewing the history page of the article, I am changing the protection to semi-protected. I am doing this with a cautionary note to the established editors of this page: Be careful when reverting apparent vandalism that you also do not revert factual good faith based edits that are in between the suspect edits. Also, Puerto Rico is a territory of the United States of America and not an sovereign country; this an indisputable fact, yet recently is constantly being changed on this page ([1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8]). The semi-protection should help with the i.p. vandals but the factually-based content and consistency of the article must be guarded by you, the established editors of this article! We can reevaluate the protection level in the future if needed. Buenas Suerte! —MJCdetroit ^(yak) 14:06, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

What's in a Name?

The article notes the eventual swap of names between the original name of the island, San Juan, and that of the capital, Puerto Rico. It states, however, that this change was established by the mid-18th century. I have to question this. I have seen a French map dating from the 1780's which labeled the city as Puerto Rico (as well as the island!). Additionally, I have seen an original document dated 1898 from the Catholic bishop of the island, who listed his title as "Bishop of Puerto Rico." In Catholic usage, a bishop's title is tied to a city, not a state or region, so clearly formal usage does not reflect such a swap until after the United States invasion. How can this reality be introduced to the article?Daniel the Monk (talk) 23:28, 24 May 2011 (UTC)

Most of the historical maps from this link (as early as 1660) [ http://www.pennymead.com/results.php?ct=4&sub=418&m=s ] refer to the island as Puerto Rico and the city as San Juan. Actually, it's usually referred to as "San Jean de Puerto Rico"-- so perhaps the bishop's title was just shorthand, but that's just speculation. Only one of the maps (Bowen, 1747) refers to the city as "P Rico"-- but perhaps this is also shorthand, colloquial, or a regional reference (like how Americans sometimes refer to the Netherlands as Holland). Hard to say for sure, but based on this evidence I would say the name swap was fairly well accepted by the mid-18th century, so no change to the article is needed.

San Juan: "second oldest capital city in the Americas"?

It is undoubtful that Santo Domingo was founded in the 1490s. But, Havana, Cuba, was founded in 1519, so it appears to be older than San Juan, Puerto Rico, which was founded in 1521. Then San Juan is not the second oldest capital city, but the third or perhaps even the fourth-oldest capital city, as Mexico City was (re)founded in 1521 over the ruins of Tenochtitlan (founded by the Aztecs in 1325, and destroyed by the Spaniards in 1521). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 148.101.44.46 (talk) 00:46, 6 August 2016 (UTC)
