Talk:Efteling

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

There are many types of alligator thrers the raptor, unger and Sangor Named aliigators.Most of these names are rather cryptical and bogus. It seems the park's management was simply unable to think of fitting names for the four areas, since the park was never built with this division in mind. Differently themed rides are all over the park, not at all situated in the most applicable realms. The only area that seems to fit its name, at least a bit, is 'Ruigrijk' (Rough Realm, literally), where most fast rides like the double-loop coaster 'Python' (1981) are located.

Whether the realm names make sense or not is a matter of opinion. I especially object to the word bogus. I'll rewrite this part and try to make it more NPOV. - Lunapuella

[edit] Wonderlijkewcweb.org

That link at the bottom of the page might refer to a very popular site, it's mainly dedicated to the toilets in the park.

Actually, the website started as a review site about the park's toilets (based not just on hygiene but also how well the toilets are 'themed'). The site grew in popularity and also started to include generic Efteling news, stories, park photographs, gossip and rumours. It is now one of the most popular websites among dutch Efteling fans.Felsir 11:04, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "Imagineering"

Is it appropriate to use the term "imagineering" and "imagineer" in this article, as that is the term for Disney engineers and designers, and specifically Disney...

I think it's even trademarked by Disney, so I guess not 81.71.36.212 13:21, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

In the text, the term is surrounded by 'single quotes', so I think it's pretty clear that these are not actually imagineers but can very well be compared to imagineers. Whether or not the term is trademarked is not relevant, the use does not violate trademark law. Tkinkhorst 11:14, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Slot

The translation for the word "slot" should be castle, not house or mansion. I hope my changes in this matter can count on approval.

I think keep would be more acurate Dedden 21:17, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

No, keep refers to the central fortified tower in medieval strongholds. ('Donjon' in Dutch) The Efteling attraction is not a stronghold in any case I'd say.
