Talk:Union Watersphere

Cool article
Good job developing this. If I get near it with my camera, I'll try to take another picture for you to consider.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 11:55, 23 February 2012 (UTC)
 * And, what's cooler still is that somebody thought to write an article about a watersphere -- I didn't know what a watersphere was, and it's cool that there is an article about it. Kudos to you!!!--Tomwsulcer (talk) 22:37, 23 February 2012 (UTC)

Orphaned references in Union Watersphere
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 Union Watersphere'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 "landmark": From Water tower:  From Thomas Alva Edison Memorial Tower and Museum:  

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 ⚡ 00:23, 20 August 2012 (UTC)

Why?
Okay, why is it the "World's Tallest Water Sphere"? The article doesn't say. What's the reason for the extraordinary height? Is it just about bragging rights, or is the higher water pressure needed for some reason? Also, how is it considered taller than the Kuwait Towers, which also use spheres?

The Earthoid paragraph
It says on the paragraph the Earthoid is "perfectly spherical", but in reality it's not, because we can't make anything perfectly spherical. Plus even the most spherical things ever made by man are atoms off round, not to mention everything we see is made up of molecules and atoms along with subatomic particles. A perfect sphere must be made up of 1 thing, and the only large perfect sphere to have is an imaginary sphere inscribed in the apparently round object. Either "nearly spherical" or "spherical" would be more accurate as that might or might not always account for perfection. Plus a pedestal and curvature between the top tank and pedestal take away the true roundness as well (as for all water spheres). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.58.216.93 (talk) 17:50, 1 September 2020 (UTC) As defined "a sphere is defined mathematically as the set of points that are all at the same distance r from a given point in a three-dimensional space". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.58.216.93 (talk) 17:47, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
