Translation of <<Скала>>[edit]

I'm not sure if it is rock or cliff? DVD+ R/W 17:52, 21 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Standalone rock. It's right? 62.5.135.173 13:49, 25 October 2006 (UTC) (commons:User:Serguei S. Dukachev)[reply]

From what I see in the picture, it's a rock.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 18:47, 25 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Coordinates[edit]

What are the coordinates of Sail Rock?--Just James 14:31, 29 October 2006 (GMT+10:00)

More generally, is there a reason we arent explicitly stating what country it is in? Dxco 14:58, 29 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Isn't that obvious? :) I mean, if saying that Stone Mountain is located in a "suburb of Atlanta" is sufficient to understand that it's in the United States, why saying that Sail Rock is located in Krasnodar Krai is not sufficient to understand that it's in Russia?

Just pulling your leg here, but your comment made the overall systemic bias oh so apparent. I amended the intro somewhat, hopefully making it clearer. Cheers,—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 16:01, 30 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
