Article title
[edit]Shouldn't we rename this "Roller Coasters at Paramount Canada's Wonderland"? AllStarZ 01:37, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
- Agreed; this only lists the roller coasters (and not even all of them). I think a move is in order. –Dvandersluis 23:58, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
Is this page really necessary? Why doesn't each ride have its own specific page, like that of other roller coaster pages? (Coasterman1234 16:13, 24 February 2007 (UTC))
New Ratings
[edit]Someone needs to add new ratings, I was at wonderland on sunday and cedar fair changed the ratings to a scale of 1-5. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 74.96.15.80 (talk) 12:00, 7 May 2007 (UTC). Yeah, I saw that the ratings changed too.~BoboBonnie~
I fixed the ratings information but I don't know how to fix the individual ratings themselves because they are images. I have the ratings in front of me too.
- Unfortunately I have not yet been to the park this year to see the new rating system; do the rides not have a graphical symbol to specify the intensity anymore (ie. the number in a shape)? If not, we should remove those images from the page and make it consistent. If there is a new symbol for 5, can someone link to an image of it, and then I'll make a SVG graphic for it like I did for 1-4. Also, if ratings for specific rides have changed and you cannot change it yourself, let me know and I'll update that too. —Daniel Vandersluis(talk) 21:58, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
Not sure where to post this, but there is a huge discrepancy between the ratings listed in the actual coaster information section and the summary at the bottom. I don't know what's correct so I don't know how to modify them. For example the Italian Job is rated 3 but listed as 5. Flight Deck is rated 4 but also listed as 5. About half of them are incongruent. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.141.39.236 (talk) 22:32, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
Edits
[edit]July 4, 2007: I changed the speeds of some roller coaster profiles from __mph (__km/h) to: __km/h (__mph). This was to keep the page consistent and putting the metric system first, since the park is located in Canada.
I also changed the location of the cost of Taxi Jam so it too would be consistent.
Citations missing
[edit]As much as I like the little icons, I can't find these intensity ratings anywhere on the web. Also, as noted above under New Ratings, the ratings next to each ride don't always mesh with the ratings in the summary table at the end of the article, most likely because Canada's Wonderland expanded their scale from 1-4 to 1-5. Without a citation, we can't know for certain what the actual rating is. --Skylights76 (talk) 18:04, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
Mighty Canadian Minebuster Biggest Longest
[edit]The information stating that the Mighty Canadian Minebuster is the biggest largest wooden roller coaster in canada would have to be verified. I believe "Le Monstre" (the monster) at La Ronde in montreal is way bigger (just by looking at the massive structure) and longer. Height 130.9 ft (39.9 m) Length 3,996.1 ft (1,218.0 m) Max speed 59.7 mph (96.1 km/h)
It's a double track roller coaster (side by side) and the length is the length of ONE track. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Le_Monstre
The Mighty Canadian Minebuster still is a darn fun ride ;0) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.28.18.246 (talk) 14:23, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
