Category talk:Bicontinental countries

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Shouldn't Indonesia be in this category as well? Islands like Java, Kalimantan, Sulawesi and Sumatera are in Asia, but when we go east, we are approaching Oceania. And since Papua New Guinea is an Oceanian country, West Papua can be considered Oceanian as well. And what about Egypt, with Sinaï being in the westernmost part of Asia?

Actually, the Wikipedia article on transcontinental countries considers Sulawesi in Oceania since it is east of the Wallace line. Heff01 14:47, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Category Name

Shouldn't this article be called category:transcontinental nations, since the article it references is called so? C mon 06:40, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] how many countries?

does this category serve any purpose? If we followed the main article, about 50 countries would be in this category, which would then be relatively meaningless. Hmains 22:43, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Suggestions to add and delete

Add: Greece (Europe and Asia), Panama (North and South America), Italy (Europe and Africa), Spain (Europe and Africa), Portugal (Europe and Africa), Colombia (South and North America), Venezuela (South and North America)

Delete: Armenia, Cyprus (both entirely in Asia acording to Wikipedia definitons) Heff01 14:50, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
