Talk:Black Virgin Mountain

Vietnamese

The Vietnamese is almost certainly missing its diacritics. Can somebody double check that? Circéus (talk) 14:31, 15 April 2010 (UTC)

needs a check. some sentences are tricky to understand. and sited or sighted and interned or interred? Hope that helps. Seems that your dyk hook should read that the US held only the tip of this hill and the vietcong held all the surrounding .. Victuallers (talk) 15:29, 16 April 2010 (UTC)

Ski lift?

It's hard to believe that a low mountain at a latitude of 11 degrees could be reliably used for skiing, which makes it curious that it would have a "ski lift" to take skiers up so they can ski down. Indeed, the photo seems to show passengers riding up and down. Instead, it seems that this is (and should be called) a chair lift or gondola lift.--Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 13:13, 24 April 2010 (UTC)

The present picture shows a gondola lift. Thus, I changed chair lift to gondola lift (and in Commons, ski lift to gongola lift). --AHert (talk) 12:30, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

ALL 23 manning the top of the mountain were killed

There were 23 Americans killed that night, but that was NOT the total garrison. Here is a link to an offical After Action Report for that battle, May 13, 1968 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.244.214.59 (talk) 18:29, 2 September 2011 (UTC)

Name

Which is the source supporting that this mountain was called "Black Virgin" in English. In Vietnamese, "Bà Đen" means "Black Madam", in which "Bà" (Madam/Lady) could be a woman having children. --113.190.146.147 (talk) 09:22, 4 May 2013 (UTC)
