Orlando Eye[edit]

Hi. I reverted your recent edits [1][2] which changed "The Orlando Eye is a giant Ferris wheel" to "The Orlando Eye is a giant Observation wheel" (please note that similar reverts have also been made on three previous occasions [3][4][5]). Please see the first paragraph of Orlando Eye#Design and construction, which already deals with the operator's claim that the Orlando Eye is an observation wheel. Please see also these discussions:

Please also note:

Wheels which are marketed as, or claim to be, observation wheels are all primarily described as Ferris wheels in their respective articles - see High Roller (Ferris wheel), Singapore Flyer, London Eye, Melbourne Star, and New York Wheel. The 'observation wheel' claim is most commonly made for wheels with externally mounted passenger capsules - see the same five articles - as opposed to suspended capsules; the Orlando Eye has suspended capsules.
There is no 'Observation wheel' article; Observation wheel has been a redirect to Ferris wheel#Observation wheels since June 2008.
There is no generally accepted definition for observation wheels (to be an observation wheel, it has been claimed that the wheel must have externally mounted passenger capsules; or have stabilised capsules; or have enclosed capsules; or that the structure be of the cantilever type; or simply that it not be located in an amusement park) and hence there is no Category:Observation wheels.

If you disagree, please feel free to discuss at Talk:Orlando Eye - but do not change the lead description back to 'observation wheel' without first establishing a clear consensus. Thank you. 81.141.58.213 (talk) 20:01, 13 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
