Talk:Himno Nacional de Honduras
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] NPOV
This article needs to be rewritten from a neutral point of view, not that of a Honduran. I can't do it myself at the moment, so I tagged the article. BrianSmithson 18:32, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
- I'm not honduran, but I speak spanish so I felt qualified to edited it to be less pov. For teh most part, just changing things like "our heroes" to "the heroes." Numerao 21:33, 31 October 2005 (UTC)
