Talk:Köppen climate classification

message: Recently this article has been edited extensively over several months by User:Paulistafan, who has been blocked as a sockpuppet account of Honduras200010. The edits of that account's many sockpuppets have focused primarily on climate, and many of their edits have been reverted on substantive grounds even before any notice had been given to the fact that they were accounts of a blocked user. Since there have been many intervening edits by other users, it isn't possible simply to roll back to the state before the user's first edit. Please review this account's (and, for that matter, any other of the sockpuppets') edits for reliability and fix as appropriate.
Gwiztiktok is in all likelihood the latest incarnation (and I've submitted that account for investigation). I've undone that user's changes. Please be on the lookout. Largoplazo (talk) 04:02, 2 November 2022 (UTC)

message: Some E group examples have ETH and EFH climates. It seems that the H letter is for highland locations but no explanation is provided for it. Are there any reliable sources for these classes?PAper GOL (talk) 03:45, 9 August 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: I found no sources that would use ETH/EFH. Those used for creating maps dont use them either. They were removed.  PAper GOL (talk) 13:09, 14 August 2023 (UTC)

message: I have brought it up before, and I'm bringing it up again; is there anyone with sources on this? I have only seen a 0C isotherm be used for cold/hot deserts once, and only for California. I'm not sure why these are consistently being added. Uness232 (talk) 23:22, 13 August 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: There are some sources in overview section where you forgot to edit. Maybe they help you. If they didn't you can remove.PAper GOL (talk) 12:13, 14 August 2023 (UTC)

text: I have another problem regarding Cw/Dw climates' ALTERNATIVE defintion (at least 70% of annual precip falling in high-sun half). This one is also totally unsourced. Then we have this EFH thing used in this article without mentioning what H actually means.PAper GOL (talk) 12:22, 14 August 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: The sources there are for BWn, not for h/k. If you can not find a source for Cw/Dw, delete it too. Uness232 (talk) 12:24, 14 August 2023 (UTC)

message: In the Overview section, there is a math parse error. It reads "Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "http://localhost:6011/en.wikipedia.org/v1/":): {\textstyle 100-\left ( \frac{\mathrm{Total\,Annual\,Precipitation\,(mm)}}{25} \right )}". I don't know how to fix it. Can someone help? TypoEater (talk) 17:42, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

message: The Köppen-Geiger classification was initially created in part by a Russian-German person, and without knowing the German terms for the various climates, the letters (especially for the B subtypes) seem nonsensical. Would it be well advised of me to add these in an etymological section, or would that be original research (of which I have been tried and convicted many times)?

replies: text: If you cite a reliable source, then it isn't original research. Surely you've been told that before, no? In this case you can go right to the : , p. C14. And it's certainly relevant. Largoplazo (talk) 10:46, 2 January 2024 (UTC)

message: Regarding its climate classification per Köppen. I call interested editors to chime in. Uness232 (talk) 16:54, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: I reiterate this request; there needs to be more of a discussion and a consensus on this, as it in fact touches on much more general concerns. Uness232 (talk) 16:38, 11 January 2024 (UTC)

message: When looking at Csa in the diagrams (maps) the Csa color is nearly impossible to distinguish from the background grey color.  For examples:
* Köppen_climate_classification#/media/File:Koppen-Geiger_Map_C_present.svg
* Mediterranean_climate#/media/File:Cs_climate.png
* Mediterranean_climate#/media/File:Koppen-Geiger_Map_Csa_present.svg
I understand that the colors of the various climates are based on the official Kopeen color conventions, but I'm wondering if there is some way to improve the contrast of Csa color somehow. 
Or, if that is not possible, changing the background color (of the "no climate zone" map regions) from light grey to some other color ... at least in the few maps that focus on Csa/Csb climates.
