Talk:2022 Oder environmental disaster

Latest comment: 1 year ago by Piotrus in topic how about using a map that shows the Oder

unclear wording edit

The testing section says "A German testing lab had found traces of mercury,[10] but the Polish government denied the cause as mercury poisoning and claimed their tests had found no such thing.[11] Later German laboratories believed this may have been the result of large amount of salt in the water.[12]".

It is not clear whether "this" in the last sentence refers to (a) German labs finding mercury or (b) polish labs _not_ finding mercury. 2A02:8108:4CBF:F59C:31FA:4F2:A4ED:5331 (talk) 17:35, 13 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

how about using a map that shows the Oder edit

Good idea. It turns out there is a shape for the river on the current (15 Aug, 20:17 BST) infobox map but I'm struggling to get it to show, except in 'edit>preview' mode. Zooming out I at least forced the location pin to show (near Wroclaw), and some better-known place-names also provide context. I'm sure there's a better way - anybody?

@Tamfang @Yadsalohcin This article has a timeline and a map related to the event; it should be possible to make a free version of the map, but I don't have the skills for that. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 12:47, 18 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
