Talk:Spitzkoppe

?
Beefart says. I am very pleased to see the creation of this article. However, it was a complete shambles. I was the one who climbed this peak in four hours in 1971 and so I am not talking though my hat. I have had to remove the sentence "Climbers Gargitter, Botte, Thaler and Trenkwalder completed the route in a four-day push in 2000" because it is utterly impossible to work out what it refers to. Please have another go at inserting exactly what it was that you meant to say.


 * The section "General Development and History" is still more or less incomprehensible. I don't understand the part about the "Hollywood film company" in particular; how did they get the right to build a fence that cuts people off from walking around the mountain and from the best climbing route?  24.27.31.170 (talk) 18:05, 1 August 2011 (UTC) Eric


 * Agree. And what, pray, is a Pontok 4 Chroma Noise?  Methinks that the unverified and dubious sounding bits could quite easily be simply dropped from the article.  They add no value.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.228.224.132 (talk) 12:42, 13 March 2016 (UTC)

Wrong coordinates?
I think the currently given coordinates are wrong but I'm not completely shure. I think Spitzkoppe is the solitaire peak e few hundred meters west from the given point. --Ikiwaner (talk) 09:22, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

Proposal to use new QI as main image
I suggest to replace the current main picture on the article File:Spitzkoppe.jpg by this one: File:Spitzkoppe Rock Arch Viewpoint.jpg. It has much higher resolution and is reviewed as a quality image on commons. --Domob (talk) 05:50, 19 July 2019 (UTC)
