Orphaned references in List of Ferris wheels
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of List of Ferris wheels's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "senyo99": From Ferris wheel: Cosmo Clock 21 From Cosmo Clock 21: Senyo Kogyo Co, Ltd. - Cosmo Clock 21 

Reference named "Anderson": From Paris: In : "'In March 1871 the Commune took power in the abandoned city and held it for two months. Then Versailles seized the moment to attack and, in one horrifying week, executed roughly 20,000 Communards or suspected sympathizers, a number higher than those killed in the recent war or during Robespierre’s ‘Terror’ of 1793–94. More than 7,500 were jailed or deported to places like New Caledonia. Thousands of others fled to Belgium, England, Italy, Spain and the United States. In 1872, stringent laws were passed that ruled out all possibilities of organizing on the left. Not till 1880 was there a general amnesty for exiled and imprisoned Communards. Meantime, the Third Republic found itself strong enough to renew and reinforce Louis Napoleon’s imperialist expansion—in Indochina, Africa, and Oceania. Many of France’s leading intellectuals and artists had participated in the Commune (Courbet was its quasi-minister of culture, Rimbaud and Pissarro were active propagandists) or were sympathetic to it. The ferocious repression of 1871 and after was probably the key factor in alienating these milieux from the Third Republic and stirring their sympathy for its victims at home and abroad.'" From Technocosmos: Ferris wheels - an illustrated history, Norman D. Anderson 

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 21:36, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

addtional colums in this list
Hi, I like the list and added a wheel to it. I think it would be wonderful if it had a few more colums: On the other hand, the column location doesn't need to be so broad. A location icon or a display like 28°N 115°E would be just enough. --Guisquil (talk) 23:41, 6 February 2011 (UTC)
 * period of operation
 * weight (tonnes)
 * capacity (passangers)
 * cost

Sorting of list buggy
If you try to sort the list, it falls apart. This needs to be fixed but I don't know how. I sorted by different colums and had very weird results. Apart from that the sorting doesn't work as it should on location, but sorting by location doesn't make much sense anyway, does it? --Guisquil (talk) 23:41, 6 February 2011 (UTC)
