Talk:Vrak – Museum of Wrecks

Low-importance
I really do not see the importance of markings of this type, even if I may agree that the article is of low importance as of to-day (late 2019). As the museum does not exist to-day, even if advanced planning is going on and adequate decisions on financing and commitment have been taken, I actually was in doubt whether I should publish it at all as early as I did. It might be seen as too much of an advertising "trailer". I myself have no link whatsever with the museum or anything connected to it.

If everything will go on well, the museum will be opened next year (2020), and the article should the be updated, and hopefully expanded and improved. Maybe there will be reason to upgrade the marking to "important" at that time, because the general situation as far as wrecks in the Baltic are concerned actually is very favourable because of the low salinity. There is a great treasure of wrecks, many discovered only in recent years, and maybe some of them could compete with the regal ship Wasa, which is the biggest tourist attraction in Stockholm. The museum itself is a modest filial to the Maritime Museum in Stockholm, but seems to reflect a bigger interest in marine archeology research in Sweden.

As has been suggested at my user page, the title may better be changed to "VRAK" in capitals, as is the spelling that is used by the Sjöhistoriska museet (Maritime Museum). I have rather followed the praxis of Wikipedia in Swedish in this respect and have less knowledge of how such matters are dealt with on Wikipedia in English.Boberger (talk) 20:40, 10 November 2019 (UTC)
