Hi Daniel. Have you spoken to anyone in [[List of rides#Germany|Germany]] about their plans for rides? The locations they've put down are all quite vague (ie: each is in the form "City/Region"). They've also not conformed to the English naming convention used for all other ride locations.For example: "München/Bayern, Bavaria" should be just "Munich (München)" if that's where the ride is. What are your thoughts? - [[User:Nsayers|Nsayers]] 11:51, 27 Mar 2006 (PST) | Hi Daniel. Have you spoken to anyone in [[List of rides#Germany|Germany]] about their plans for rides?

Hi again. The naming of Saint Petersberg bothers me. [[Saint Petersburg, Russia]] is much more famous than [[Saint Petersburg]], Florida.

Germany rides
Hi Daniel. Have you spoken to anyone in Germany about their plans for rides? The locations they've put down are all quite vague (ie: each is in the form "City/Region"). They've also not conformed to the English naming convention used for all other ride locations.For example: "München/Bayern, Bavaria" should be just "Munich (München)" if that's where the ride is. What are your thoughts? - Nsayers 11:51, 27 Mar 2006 (PST)
Saint Petersburg
Hi again. The naming of Saint Petersberg bothers me. Saint Petersburg, Russia is much more famous than Saint Petersburg, Florida. I think the names should be swapped to "Saint Petersburg" (Russia) and "Saint Petersburg, FL". What do you think? - Nsayers 11:51, 27 Mar 2006 (PST)
- I agreeD 14:27, 30 Mar 2006 (PST)
- Done. Pages are now at Saint Petersburg (Russia) and Saint Petersburg, FL --Nsayers 05:06, 15 Jun 2006 (PDT)
Surely press is media?!
Daniel, I suggest we rename the Press and media coverage page back to 'Media coverage' – press is one of the many media that now includes TV, radio, internet, and traditional newspapers, magzines etc. --Nsayers 04:30, 15 Jun 2006 (PDT)

Maybe we can ask someone in the press and media? Its not that big of a deal though. I just don't want to sound biased one way or the other. Best, D 17:27, 15 Jun 2006 (PDT)
