Several spelling mistakes![編集]

Beware: This map has a lot of misspelled placenames. --KRISTAGAα-ω 11:53, 16 April 2008 (UTC)[返信]

Thanks for letting me know. All place names are based on the Russian-Norwegian Directory and several maps found via Google Image search. Please specify the erroneus words and I will correct them ASAP. Thanks! Mysid 12:00, 17 April 2008 (UTC)[返信]
The names have been corrected now. Please point out any further misspellings if found. Mysid (talk) 10:51, 22 July 2010 (UTC)[返信]
I found some additional spelling errors. You can use this page of the Norwegian Polar Institute to verify the official names of places.
  • "Prins Karls forland" should be "Prins Karls Forland" (capitalization)
  • "Svenskeøya" should be "Svenskøya" (no 'e')
  • Similarly, there are loads of "land", these should all be capitalized. Note that "Karl XII-øya" is correct.
  • "Sjuøyene" should be "Sjuøyane". All place names in Svalbard for some reason use the minority nynorsk grammar, which gives -øyane endings ('a' instead of 'e').
  • Similarly, "Repøyene" should be "Repøyane".
  • "Erik Eriksenstredet" should be "Erik Eriksenstretet" (replace d with t, again a bokmål–nynorsk issue).
  • "Ekmanfjord" should be "Ekmanfjorden". Many English sources cut out the -en endings (the definitive article) after fjord names, but this map should consequently use one, and WP:UE says use the native if in doubt.
  • "Nordenskjöldbukta" should be "Nordenskiöldbukta" (replace 'j' with 'i' and 'ø' with 'ö'; the guy was Swedish, and the Swedish spelling is used).
Can't see anything else right now, after all most things are correct. I am highly impressed with this high-quality map and it made the article on Svalbard a lot better =) Arsenikk (talk) 13:03, 4 September 2010 (UTC)[返信]
Thanks a lot for the corrections! I've fixed them now. Mysid (talk) 07:54, 6 September 2010 (UTC)[返信]

Longyearbyen[編集]

An anonymous user of Wikitravel has suggested that Longyearbyen is in the wrong place, see wikitravel:shared:Image talk:Svalbard topo map.png. Powers (talk) 19:19, 12 August 2010 (UTC)[返信]

Apparently WikiTravel is using an old version of this image; it has been fixed already on Commons. Mysid (talk) 19:50, 14 August 2010 (UTC)[返信]
Ah, yes, I should have looked more closely. Thanks! Powers (talk) 15:14, 16 August 2010 (UTC)[返信]
