Talk:Extreme points of Antarctica

Comments
Is Ross Island really the world's southernmost island? If the maps are correct, Berkner Island reaches further South, and another island (or just an ice rise?) in Ronne Ice Shelf, presumably unnamed, is still further south.Ratzer 09:28, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

These figures need to be cited appropriately. Gflores Talk 20:14, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

North of the Antarctic Circle
I just made a correction. Previously, the article said that the Antarctic peninsula is the only part of the continent to be north of the Antarctic Circle. This is incorrect. Several capes in East Antarctica are north of the AC.

A handful of research bases on that side of the continent are north of the circle.

Extreme points
Quite a few elements in the list have nothing to to with extreme points. I'll move them to a separate header for the moment, but should they even be in the article? - Tournesol (talk) 08:26, 31 May 2012 (UTC)

Proposed merge (2014) with Extreme points of the Antarctic

Neither article trumps the other - a merge is required as well as consideration of the ambiguity of the use of the word 'extreme' - geographical extreme and climactic extreme are in this one - also better referencing is required satusuro 14:32, 19 February 2014 (UTC)
