Pronunciation

[edit]

I'm wondering about the pronunciation? The article cites a source showing three pronunciations but then consigns all but "Bel-grade" to a footnote, but I swear growing up in the US I always heard it "Bel-grahd" until a few years ago, and frankly, I think the growing preponderance of "Bel-grade" might be a bit of "citogenesis." I think all three ought to be in the header, rather than consigned to a footnote? Twin Bird (talk) 12:14, 23 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Panorama picture should be updated

[edit]

It looks much different now. There are many new buildings. 46.16.111.216 (talk) 14:37, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I restored the previous panoramic picture:

  • the latest image is not a photograph at all; it is a computer-generated rendering of what the area is expected to look like in XY years when completed. It includes non-existent buildings and bridges.
  • I also skipped the previous photo because it is already included in the article.
  • Belgrade Waterfront is far from the most prominent part of Belgrade. Almost universally despised, it stands as a blemish on the city's urban landscape in every sense. Built on blood money linked to crime, theft, money laundering, prostitution, narcotics, human trafficking, and arms smuggling, it remains a symbol of corruption.

Full protection
