Photos of town before destruction[edit]

Are there none that could be inserted? I myself was in Rabaul back then but it did not occur to me that it was headed for volcanic destruction and I did not take a single photo. It was a splendid town and it is a great pity there are no illustrations. Masalai (talk) 11:33, 30 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Rainfall[edit]

Rainfall should really be in millimetres, but I see it's in centimetres, any idea how to change it?Metricmike (talk) 01:40, 20 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Tunnels[edit]

There are enough reports out on the web with a plausible explanation that the tunnels were not dug by the Japanese Army (as this article claims) but by Allied POWs, particularly from their Changi prison in Singapore. Ash (talk) 12:20, 29 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Narrow gauge railway[edit]

Do you know or find anything about the narrow gauge railway lines in Rabaul? --NearEMPTiness (talk) 14:27, 12 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Name[edit]

Is "Rabaul" a German transcription of a local name, fully German, or something else? 2A01:E0A:1DC:4570:D043:8879:C204:B80F (talk) 12:40, 15 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
