Talk:Lake Sfânta Ana

English source that mentions Hungarian name
Harghita County Council Information Portal - GENERAL PRESENTATION ''The hydrografic network is formed by a large number of rivers and lakes. The main rivers are: the Mures (Maros) in vest, the Olt in south, the Bistrita (Beszterce) and Trotus (Tatros) in east, the Târnava Mare (Nagyküküllö) and the Târnava Micã (Kisküküllö) in south-west. The presence of the volcanic mountains in the county assures a large number of mineral water springs, around 2200. In Harghita county can be found the only lake which has volcanic origin in Romania, the "Saint Ann" lake (Lacul Sfânta Ana - Szent Anna tó) situated in picturesque site, in the volcanic crater "Ciomatu" (Csomád) at an altitude of 950 m. Another unique lake is the "Red Lake" (Lacu Rosu - Gyilkostó) which is a rarity being formed by natural obstruction.'' &mdash; Khoikhoi 22:39, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I have nothing against ofering information on the name of Lake Sfanta Ana (Saint Anne) is known in all languages of the earth, yet these are not alternative names for the lake Saint Anne, so they dont belong to the lead section. Criztu 22:59, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
 * The Hungarian name, however, is. Firstly, it lies in Harghita County, and by taking a look at the demographics section there, it is about 85% Hungarian. Keep in mind that the inhabitants around this lake is a major factor. Also the lake was a part of Hungary for 1000s of years. It was part of Hungary longer than it has been part of Romania. I think these factors are more than enough to give a tiny bit of space in this article to mention the Hungarian name. &mdash; Khoikhoi 23:05, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
 * u should be able to quickly present an Encarta map of Harghita county with the name "Szent Anna to", as this would be a clear use of the hungarian name of lake Sfanta Ana as an alternative name in an english source. I can show you an Encarta (or any other english map) with the hungarian name Maros for river Mures Criztu 05:25, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * You wanted English sources, and I gave you one. Is Encarta suddenly the authority in maps?
 * Here's another interesting fact: According to the Băile Tuşnad article, Lake Sfânta Ana "is an important site of cultural importance for the Székely people". If it's so important to them, shouldn't the name for the lake in their own language be mentioned in the article?? &mdash; Khoikhoi 06:04, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * The Szekely Land has maximum cultural importance for the Szekelyz, yet you will not be able to buy an english map of Romania displaying Szekelyland. You will be able to buy a historical map of the Szekelyland, this situation would be similar to "no hungarian name in the lead section, but a hungarian name in the article" Criztu 06:47, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * You woudln't find the Hungarian name in a map because it would take up too much space. However, you will find bilingual street signs almost everywhere in Harghita. I'm sure it gives the Hungarian name to this lake as well, unless you crossed it out such as in Târgu-Mureş. ;) &mdash; Khoikhoi 17:37, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * you will find tons of Romanian maps of England with the name Londra for London, yet Londra is not an alternative name for London Criztu 17:39, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Maybe because London was never part of Romania... &mdash; Khoikhoi 17:41, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Your only reason to providing the hungarian names for locations in Romania seems to be "If it was administrated by Hungary, it has an alternative Hungarian name" Criztu 17:43, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * What about the fact that these areas have large Hungarian populations today? Do you think that's not legit? &mdash; Khoikhoi 17:58, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

Oxygen concentration?
What is this supposed to mean: "No animal can survive around Lake Ana due to the oxygen concentration there." Especially given that the lake is a tourist attraction and tourists do survive there. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.2.51.150 (talk) 07:46, 24 August 2016 (UTC)
