Useful article or touristical promotion ?

This article has no source. It seems to be rather a tourist brochur than a scientifical article. A lot of mistakes and approximations, the map is unsourced...In fact, the sole right thing is the fact that the cumulation of precipitations gives a green "look" to this region. But is wiki a touristic ad ? --Milkrawler (talk) 19:39, 16 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The term "Green Spain" (España verde in spanish) is actually a tourist brand, not a geographical name. In fact I recall that no longer exists.
I think the article should be renamed to "Cantabria coast" ("Cornisa cantábrica" in spanish) or "Cantabrian region" (the latter more used in scientific literature), that are the names with which there is known commonly this part of Spain (see spanish wikipedia). Though this case the east coast of Galicia would not enter. --Tony Rotondas (talk) 17:13, 17 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
