Talk:List of Antarctic expeditions

message: This list doesn't cover any Soviet Antarctic Expeditions. For example, between 1955 and 1975 there were 20 of them (the first Soviet Antarctic Expedition was held in 1955-1957) - the list in Russian is available here
Surprisingly, not even a single of those expeditions is mentioned in the article. Perhaps one day I'll add some info. I suppose, that English sources exist too. Everybody is welcome to contribute to this "unexplored field". Cmapm 15:30, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

text: Unfortunately, I'm involved into other topics now and have no time for this so far. I just wanted to say, that the list is not comprehensive by far. As I know, this is not prohibited in Wikipedia. BTW, personal attacks are prohibited. Please, stop them. Perhaps you should consider the refactoring possibility.  Cmapm 16:04, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Thanks

message: I move all references here and replace them just by two ones, one of which is to the 3-volume monograph in Russian, covering 1st SAE to 40th RAE. BTW, surprisingly, it is available "online" through Google's cache and I can look for any inf. there except images. Another one is a periodical in English. I also add a link to inf. about some SAE from the British Antarctic Society and remove "fact" tags, no more need when referenced, like e.g. inf. "in red" about German expeditions. I'll do more work on the list, including leaders and other expeditions later.

thread_title: Great amount of work, but overreferencing should be avoided

message: Shouldn't the title of this article be List of Antarctic expeditions as seeing as Antarctic is the adjective? Otherwise it should be List of Expeditions to Antarctica. You wouldn't write List of Germany Expeditions? Come to think of it, it's probably preferable to call the article List of Expeditions to Antarctica otherwise is could be misconstrued as being expeditions from Antarctica, as in German expeditions (to...) Anyone agree? Or am I just being overly fussy? Iancaddy 23:11, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: No I think Antarctica is the name of the Continent, so this would be the appropriate name.   Antarctic is the name of a zone not a continent SirIsaacBrock 02:05, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, it's also the adjective for the continent, and like Iancaddy said, it's illiterate to speak of "Europe expeditions".  But this article covers a wide swath beyond the continent, even including expeditions to South Africa and the Cape of Good Hope, so I don't see how any title could make sense except for "List of Antarctic expeditions". 69.239.236.37 15:55, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: rename?

message: Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition (JARE).  1968-1969.  Dr. Muriyama (spelling?) of the University of Tokyo led.  Spent 3 days at the Admundsen-Scott Station (South Pole Station) for Christmas of 1968.  They partied so hard, they drove over the horizon the next day, stopped, and rested for a day.  They had  much nicer boots than the American "Mickey Mouse" boots.  A book (in English) was published covering the expedition's research and discoveries.
Source: Author's interview with Lt. Commander B. Jay Bowman*, USN, retired, December 2007
Dr. Brady Haran's trip could also be included, (it should be). :D  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 47.136.97.150 (talk) 23:45, 28 March 2018 (UTC)

thread_title:  Operation Deep Freeze 

message: Shackleton did not reach the South Magnetic Pole at 88.23'S on 16th January 1909.  He did get to that latitude, on 9th January 1909, while attempting to reach the geographic pole.  The South Magnetic Pole was reached on 16th Jan at 72.25'S, on the same expedition, by Prof. Edgworth David.  I have made the necessary correction.Brianboulton (talk) 18:49, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Nimrod Confusion

message: Hey, if I plan an Antarctic cruise, does that make it an expedition?  We should probably restrict this list to stayovers on the continent with the intention of producing serious scientific or cultural work. We don't need a list of bored jet-setters who've been everywhere else. --Wtshymanski (talk) 18:50, 24 August 2011 (UTC)
