Talk:Centennial Exposition

message: The title of this article uses the word Exposition, but the name of the event contains the word Exhibition. Is this on purpose? — Muffuletta 22:47, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: We say "Exhibition" in the lead sentence and first two image captions, "Exposition" in the article title and last two image captions. Why? --P64 (talk) 23:16, 19 January 2012 (UTC)

message: There were two different sets of coordinates in the article. Both of them sent me to wrong locations. I replaced the set in the infobox with 39.981 N, -75.215 E = 39° 58′ 51.6″ N, 75° 12′ 54″ W. Those coordinates send me right to "Centennial Lake". I compared the map shown in the article with the nowadays lanes in the park as shown to me by Google Maps and cross checked it with OpenStreetMap.
Commented out the other coordinate declaration because I've seen those inconsistencies concerning different coordinate sets in the same article just too often. --BjKa (talk) 21:33, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
