Name

Various seemingly official sites

name the road as Atlantic Road in English and not Atlantic Ocean Road, even though the latter would be a better literal translation of the Norwegian. Colin 't Hart (talk) 06:30, 16 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

Yet the one official book about the road calls it the "Atlantic Ocean Road". The article clearly starts off which stating both English names. Arsenikk (talk) 08:12, 16 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

The original text said "8.274 m road". Well, I'm going to assume they at least mean kilometre! I went to the English version of the listed Norwegian web site and it also said "8.274 m" but I find it hard to believe they are referring to metres here. Can someone clarify?

  • It means 8 km and 274 m as the Norwegian convention is to use "," as decimal separator, not ".". --hans 13:09, 30 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Filtered for applicability these are the Flickr images we can consider uploading to Wikimedia Commons. __meco (talk) 18:54, 4 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

Is it not possible to ask the owner? Afterall, it will greatly improve the quality of the article. Colt .55 (talk) 00:42, 6 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

A map

This article should have a map! --Hordaland (talk) 15:12, 14 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Now there are two. --BIL (talk) 17:27, 14 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Junction list

I won't formally review this article at GAN since Arsenikk recently reviewed one of my nominations (Pierce Stocking Scenic Drive), but I will offer this critique. Why isn't there some kind of junction list table for the roadway? Adding one that complies with MOS:RJL isn't required by the MOS section (1b) of the GA criteria, but I'd say that one should be added to "address[] the main aspects of the topic" (3a), namely what other roads it intersects along its route.

Thanks for the feedback. I've now added a junction list, hopefully meeting the MOS criteria. Arsenikk (talk) 17:24, 8 October 2011 (UTC)Reply
