Talk:Pyramiden

message: The current text says:
::Pyramiden (Norwegian, meaning "the pyramid", Russian: Пирамида)
Although I'm sure the above statement is correct, since it was founded by Swedes, isn't Pyramiden then swedish? It has the same meaning in both languages.

replies: text: I updated the text to focus on that it is in Swedish "Pyramiden" means "the Pyramid", since that was the language used by the founding namers; while also noting this is true for other Scandinavian languages (since otherwise people will keep updating the text in the belief the article writer isn't aware this fact is true for Norwegian and Danish too).

message: What does the reference Umbreit, 2009. Page 182. actually mean?
It sounds pretty far fetched that anyone would spend the time and money to go thousands of kilometers from the populated parts of the world to Pyramiden just to engage in vandalism? - Tournesol (talk) 16:20, 9 November 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Page 182 in the book by Umbreit, which is listed under "bibliography". It is a popular place with tourists, and I don't find it unnatural that a small minority of them could engage in vandalism. Arsenikk (talk) 16:30, 9 November 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I stand corrected. Having understood the reference, it was pretty easy to check with the source. - Tournesol (talk) 17:44, 9 November 2012 (UTC)

message: Could the details of the land ownership be expanded upon? Currently the article lists the country as Norway, but is this technically correct? The only ownership listed is Sweden, which transferred it to the Soviet Union, and the tours are arranged by a Russian company, is the island de facto Russian or Norwegian?

replies: text: Svalbard is fully part of Norway, but a fraction of the land is owned by the Russian company Trust Arktikugol (e.g. Table 4.1 in ; note that the percentages may no longer be valid after the sale of Austre Adventfjord to the Norwegian state). This can certainly be clarified in the article if necessary. Tupsumato (talk) 18:47, 29 July 2023 (UTC)
