Talk:Zhengzhou Ferris Wheel

Pictures don't match.

 * See also: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Village_pump/Archive/2013/08#File:Zhengzhou_Ferris_Wheel.jpg_is_not_an_image_of_Zhengzhou_Ferris_Wheel

There's two images on the page, one in the day time showing 6 major spokes, and the other at night showing 7 major spokes. Which is correct?

 * Indeed. I got both of them from Flickr, and I didn't even realize that they are different. - RepliCarter (talk) 08:14, 24 August 2013 (UTC)


 * This is another Flickr photo from a different uploader and it is also the one with six spokes. - RepliCarter (talk) 08:21, 24 August 2013 (UTC)


 * The wheel with 7 spokes looks to be smaller than the one with 6 spokes. If that is in fact the case, and both wheels are in China, and given that the larger wheel is clearly not the Star of Nanchang (the only Chinese wheel taller than 120m), then the 7-spoke wheel cannot be the Zhengzhou Ferris Wheel. 27.55.203.184 (talk) 12:54, 24 August 2013 (UTC)


 * For what it's worth, if you take th8e geolink on the page to Google Maps satelite (aerial) view, you can see a 7-spoke wheel at that location. Bing Maps Aerial view is straight-on to the edge of the wheel, but the shadow seems to also confirm 7 spokes. Fubaz (talk) 16:42, 26 August 2013 (UTC)


 * So the right one should be the one with the night photo? - RepliCarter (talk) 17:57, 26 August 2013 (UTC)


 * It looks like those coordinates (34.76451°N, 113.65494°W) are for Renmin Park (Zhengzhou) (which apparently does have a 7-spoke wheel), not Century Park. And the wheel at those coordinates is about 60m in diameter. 27.55.130.231 (talk) 01:08, 27 August 2013 (UTC)


 * I suppose looking in the wrong place would make all the difference. Is this the right one? (34.73285°N, 113.7187°W) The shadow here looks like 6-spokes to me. Fubaz (talk) 17:33, 27 August 2013 (UTC)


 * My best guess is that's the right place, the wheel at that location appears to be about the correct size. 27.55.130.155 (talk) 20:52, 27 August 2013 (UTC)


 * The description of the night-time photo is "Ferris wheel with 7 spokes at en:Renmin Park (Zhengzhou), Henan, China. Not to be confused with the 120m en:Zhengzhou Ferris Wheel at Century Amusement Park, Zhengzhou." So that is a different and smaller Ferris wheel in the city, but not the one which this article is about.  The daytime photo above seems to be the right one, based on multiple internet images of the same one. Carl Lindberg (talk) 22:59, 29 August 2013 (UTC)


 * Note however that I substantially revised the description of that file (the 7-spoke wheel at night) so that it now reads as you report, and requested that it be renamed to specify Renmin Park, on 27 August 2013. I have also revised several of the related articles during the course of this discussion. 27.55.229.117 (talk) 01:49, 30 August 2013 (UTC)


 * Yep, my bad. Thanks for chasing down the details and doing the cleanup. Carl Lindberg (talk) 17:21, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
