message: What is this "Great wall of Trajan" that 1911 Britannica talks about ? Is it really such a wall near Constanta ? I couldn't find any reference on the web. Bogdan | Talk 18:38, 17 Feb 2004 (UTC)

message: A statue of Ovid stands in the main square of Constanta, in front of the History Museum (the former City Hall).
That is not really true. The square the article is called Ovid Square (Piaţa Ovidiu).
If anything, the main square is the one in front of the current City Hall, which is near km 0 (center of town) and the old mosaic/Roman wall. Granted, it's sort of a park/square combination thingy, whose name is unkown. Best I've been able to come up with was 'Central Park'. Gcbirzan 15:23, 15 Dec 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm from Constanta. That park from the city hall is called 'Parcul Arheologic' (Archeological Park). Anonymous
Sounds better, heh. While I don't mean to claim you're wrong, I'm not familiar with that name myself. Do you have any sources for this, or is this solely based on your personal knowledge (I've asked friends and family, and neither seem to know of that park having a name. Same for the park down on Tomis avenue, from the municipal hospital.)? gcbirzan 22:05, 9 Jan 2005 (UTC)

message: That's what the romanian version says. Where did you guys get this info? I lived there and it certainly did not seem like it. The city's offical site does not give any numbers? Did you consult the Romanian census of 2001? —This unsigned comment is by 24.201.83.39 (talk • contribs) .
Romanians are somewhere around 90%, with Turks and Tatars being 7% together. That number you've quoted is obviously wrong. May have been a typo. Pirlinho 17:34, 18 July 2005 (UTC)

message: I think that the CoA from the article isn't used anymore. Probably it felt into disuse in 1948. On the city hall site another one appears (the one in the header). This one is used during special days (Constanta's days, National Day), and also appears in the background in every press conference given by municipal officials. Anonimu 14:35, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: AFAIK, the CoA from the article is the right one. I've been told (I don't know for sure whether this is true or not) that Mazăre and the City Council tried to adopt the CoA featured on the city hall website (depicting Saint Constantine and Saint Helena), but the County Council overruled the decision and replaced it with the one depicting goddess Fortuna.

message: The city's climate would actually fit into the "humid subtropical" (Cfa) classification according to Köppen climate classification which is widely in use.  This classification means that average temperature for the coldest month is between -3C and 18C, and the warmest month average greater than 22C and precipitation distributed throughout the whole year.  In the Wikipedia article concerning Koppen classifications this area is already included in the humid subtropical zone, as well as other Black Sea coastal regions.  However, if the wheatherbase data is used, then the warmest month average falls just short of the classification.
That being said, I feel that the current climate section does describe the climate very well without making use of the Koppen scale.  If somebody knows more about this, then maybe we can make the changes.--IoanC (talk) 14:15, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Checked  a recent RS (Sterie Ciulache - Considerations on the existence of semiarid and maritime mid-latitude climate in Romania, Analele Stiintifice UAIC, Iasi, 2005), and it turns the whole Romanian coast is actually BS (presumably BSk). A much older source (1938), agrees with this classification (actually it says Bsax, which I suppose is an older form of classification), while nothing that Varna (on the Black Sea coast, some 130 km south of Constanta) is Cfa. The main argument against Cfa seem to be rainfall (somewhere around 300-350 mm, with a maximum in early summer and a second-order maximum in late autumn), the long drought periods in summer and the frequent blizzards in winter.Anonimu (talk) 17:25, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text:  I think it really depends on what values you use for total annual precipitation and average annual temperature.  There is a formula for figuring out if an area fits into a semi-arid climate.  Considering that the average annual temp. is about 11C in that area and that 30%–70% of the total precipitation is received in the "high sun" months, this sets the threshold value to about 360mm.  This means that total annual precipitation needs to be less than this value and more than half this value for an area to be semi-arid.  Is precipitation really that low on the Romanian Black Sea coast?  I've heard it is about 350mm in the Danube Delta, and about 380mm around Mangalia and over 400mm around Constanta.  Hope I haven't made any mistakes.  Either way, it's really close to a BS climate; definitely not your typical "humid subtropical", if indeed the case.--IoanC (talk) 11:52, 13 March 2010 (UTC)
