Talk:List of North American ports

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Is Mexico still in North America? What about Tampico, Veracruz, Acapulco, Puerto Vallarta, and Mazatlan? I know the U.S. and Canada dwarf our Mexicans friends, but should we be rude? WikiDon 20:25, 6 September 2005 (UTC)

Mexico is indeed part of northamerica as it has always been. How could it stop being it? It's like asking "is italy still in europe" ? ;) -- (☺drini♫|☎) 22:10, 6 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Completed revised table

Each possible marine coast is covered now, and each nation has it's own subsection along the coast. This has been done in part to allow readers to jump to the coast/country of interest. Some ports are obviously not top world importance, but for Churchill, MB, for example, if the Northwest Passage opens it could be quite important in Canada. My Spanish is imperfect -- thus the sources warning. 3 decimal places in degrees is to within 150 meters, which smaller virtually all these places; these are included to check the geographical ordering. Rankings have been put in tables and the bolding removed. There are other locations with better coverage of rankings. Some coverage of the Intracoastal Waterway would be a nice addition, somewhere. This is 42 Kb, but the table and coordinates are the killers, perhaps some break up would be good.rmo13 03:52, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
