External links modified (January 2018)[edit]

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on Matadi. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20140714203329/http://symposium.fea.ugent.be/sites/symposium.elis.ugent.be/files/phdsymposium/paper450abstract_42.pdf to http://symposium.fea.ugent.be/sites/symposium.elis.ugent.be/files/phdsymposium/paper450abstract_42.pdf

When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

Frontier with Angola[edit]

I would be interested to see a detailed diagram of the national border with Angola. Most maps show it going through areas of housing in Matadi. I'm assuming the real border is the small river which is just south of the town I haven't been able to find and reference image for this. Francis Hannaway (talk) 10:03, 1 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Population?[edit]

It seems weird to have the past-tense population of the city in the summary section of the article where there's more recent information available. The only reason I can see it being useful is to indicate that the population of the city has grown since then, but that should be flagged in the writing: "But has since increased to [...]." 118.138.118.83 (talk) 23:34, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Finding a reliable source is the key. The population for 2015 given in the infobox is cited to a source that is no longer available. I'm leary of the sites that turn up in a Google search, not being sure of the reliability of their sources. - Donald Albury 13:49, 19 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
