What is the source of these translation? Because there should be an official translation list fof geogr. terms from each country delivered to the UN. Juro 9 July 2005 19:10 (UTC)
:just dictionaries. I don't know about UN lists. Markussep 00:58, 10 July 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: What is the next higher page ("geoinfo")? Because I can only find the UN statistics page, but I do not see there links to geographical names or so.Juro 17:01, 10 July 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Translation of generic geographic terms

message: I do not speak Romanian, nevertheless I have the following questions:
:1. Is obcina really the general term for "ridge"? I thought it was a special name only for those three mountains.
:: According to the dictionary it is a general term 
:2. Why do we use adjectives in the English translation in selected cases (Apuseni instead of Apus, Calimani instead of Caliman etc.)? I know that people use to do this, but that's only because they do not know the basic forms.
:: "Căliman" is indeed the basic form , but "Călimani" is always used in plural form.
:: "Apuseni" is the plural of "Apusean", meaning "Western". "Apus" only means "West". And the mountains are the "Western Mountains", not the "West Mountains". bogdan ʤjuʃkə | Talk 14:26, 13 July 2005 (UTC)

thread_title: Romanian

message: This article certainly can't be criticized for lack of completeness. However finding any detailed information that might be contained in it is almost impossible. It seems to be more a long list of ranges (with complicated and unpronounceable foreign spellings) whose goal is completeness rather than an expository article whose goal is to impart information. I was looking for a range in the Carpathians in Ukraine but the lists are incomprehensible. It's obvious that a lot of work has gone into creating this article but perhaps it's time for someone with a more pedagogical perspective to take control.154.5.45.119 (talk) 05:26, 26 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: The information you're looking for probably resides either in Eastern Beskids and the Ukrainian Carpathians or Vihorlat-Gutin Area.  I think this page (which I did not write) is a really admirable attempt to clarify a subject complicated by multiple languages, multiple names and naming conventions for the same ranges, and lack of clear documentation, especially when you get down into Romania.  I agree it's not easily readable.  If by "take control" you mean to contribute, please do.  --Lockley (talk) 06:03, 26 August 2011 (UTC)
