Talk:Cycling the Western Sahara

Introduction
This is a translation of an article I published on the german wikivoyage. It covers the main route through the Western Sahara by bicycle.

ToDo

 * Templates:
 * VCard to listings
 * no arabic template
 * wikidata
 * literature, book
 * Convert dms to dd coordinates
 * split listings in sleep|go|...

History

 * 4.7.2017 Started the article
 * 8.7.2017 Vcard templates changed to listings and dms-coords rewritten as decimal degrees
 * 18.7.2017 Translation finished. Still needs reviews

Danke!

 * Mir ist es wichtig diese Informationen anderen Radfahrern zukommen zu lassen, die diese Route fahren wollen. Ich bräuchte noch Hilfe mit dem Englisch. Ausserdem Frage ich mich, wie ich den Artikel am besten veröffentliche. Vielleicht kannst du mir helfen. LG, Alexander Leisser (talk) 11:35, 12 July 2017 (UTC)

Winds
Could somebody check the paragraphs about the winds (in Climate). I did not make any try at the sucking of Sahara air out of the Mediterranean, and there might be some translation errors also (I do not trust my own German to get it right). --LPfi (talk) 12:34, 13 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Maybe a bug in the translation.I check it as soon as possible. Alexander Leisser (talk) 13:01, 18 July 2017 (UTC)
 * The sucking is still there. What about
 * " ... strong deep-pressure areas can suck Saharaluft over the Mediterranean. The dry, hot south-south-east sand and dust winds, the Schirokko, are formed."
 * ("... starke Tiefdruckgebiete über dem Mittelmeer Saharaluft ansaugen. Es entstehen die trockenen, heißen südlichen bis südöstlichen Sand- und Staubwinde, der Schirokko.")
 * "...strong deep-pressure areas can suck air from Sahara out over the Mediterranean, creating dry, hot south to south-east winds, with sand and dust: the Schirokko."

Untranslated section
It seems the sections from Tarfaya to Ad-Dakhla are untranslated. --LPfi (talk) 17:25, 13 July 2017 (UTC)


 * It looks like some translation is still needed...I see a lot of "nach"s in the article. —Granger (talk · contribs) 13:22, 3 March 2018 (UTC)


 * I still see some German, starting with the Nouadhibou section. Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:09, 17 February 2019 (UTC)

Any update since 2006?
It looks like this very interesting article was written in 2006. I realize few travelers are adventurous enough to bike this entire route, but any updates would be very helpful.

On another topic, I think the Ramadan infobox and link should be put somewhere in this article, don't you? Ikan Kekek (talk) 09:33, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Why is that? Just because it's set in the Muslim world...? —Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 09:54, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Of course. That's always the reason for putting in the infobox. Plus, Ramadan is mentioned and discussed somewhat in the article. Ikan Kekek (talk) 15:03, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Sounds good to me. —Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 20:18, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Added more info on religion, Ramadandates template. Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:09, 17 February 2019 (UTC)
