User talk:Fonzy/Sealand

Hrmm, not sure I agree with applying the template, since Sealand is arguably not a real country.

One technical point - the template currently says population density is negligable. On the contrary, cramming 5-10 people into a tiny space means the population density is very high, possibly the highest in the world. Evercat 12:27 11 Jul 2003 (UTC)

That was my mistake, my brain isn't working properly at the moment. But I think sealand should have a template. In your POV its not a country. In someone elses POV it is. Applying the template in my opinion just makes the artilce look nicer and I think NPOV's it, just becasue the tempalte is there does not say "Yes its a country". You could talk about other countries like that. some people do not recognise Israel as a country, but that deos not mean it does not ahve its own template. -fonzy

It is not recognised as a country by the UN and as far as I am concerned that's a good enough authority on the matter. It's not POV. If you don't agree with this then look at it this way. It is plainly absurd that we would have Sealand listed as a country and not Palestine. Mintguy 12:43 11 Jul 2003 (UTC)

I think in this case it's dodgy to split up information on history, politics, geography, etc, since in this case they are all tied together. Better to discuss them in the same place. Evercat 12:47 11 Jul 2003 (UTC)

I am not saying its a country or its not a country. I am mearly using the tempalte to orgainze the information about it (altough may need some alterations). -fonzy

Fair anough, but don't you think that you're going to be hard pressed to say anything sensible about the Geography, Demographics and Culture of Sealand. Mintguy
