Untitled notes
editSiam Park will be the world's first green water park.[6]
The only use of the word green in the referance is concerning plant matter. If this reading is correct it will not be the "first" as other water parks have green plant matter. Additionaly the referance makes no mention of any firsts.
If the author was refering to the stated aim to "exist in harmony with nature and minimise any impact on the environment." then I think we would need a better reason than them saying so to include so bold a claim.
PS. how does one add a future event/product/place tag?

Siam Park (Tenerife) → Siam Park – The suffix (Tenerife) was added but not needed. The other theme park is named Siam Park City. They already have different names. – Diego Cerdán (talk) 13:03, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
- This is a contested technical request (permalink). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 22:48, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
- @Diego Cerdán: But are those 2 names Siam Park City and Siam Park different enough to distinguish them? Anthony Appleyard (talk) 22:48, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
- @Anthony Appleyard: I think one extra word is enough to make the distinction. The Wikipedia is full of examples where the third word makes the difference. Also for consistency as only the english and dutch articles add the extra (Tenerife) tag. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Diego Cerdán (talk • contribs) 00:05, 6 November 2015 (UTC)
- English Wikipedia does not follow what other Wikipedias do concerning disambiguation, as each Wikipedia determines topic primacy for each language, they are NOT transferable between languages. Consistency with other languages' parenthetical disambiguation makes no sense. Concerning one word disambigaution, we are doing that right here, with "Tenerife" -- 70.51.44.60 (talk) 05:50, 6 November 2015 (UTC)

- Oppose this has not occupied "Siam Park" since 2008, since 2008, it has referred to the location in Thailand. At most, "Siam Park" should be a disambiguation page. It should not be this topic. The one in Thailand is also called "Siam Park" [1] -- 70.51.44.60 (talk) 05:46, 6 November 2015 (UTC)
- There are at least four topics for a dab page, this page, the other page, the list of historical parks in Siam, and the list of parks in Thailand contains parks that were created when it was still Siam. -- 70.51.44.60 (talk) 05:59, 6 November 2015 (UTC)
- Oppose "Siam Park is a great place to cool off from the heat of the Thai sun." etc. see G Books In ictu oculi (talk) 12:57, 6 November 2015 (UTC)
