Talk:Comparison of the Amundsen and Scott Expeditions

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Recently the sections regarding the comparison between the two expeditions on Scott's and Amundsen's articles have been removed or reduced in order to produce a more concise article. The removed materials, however, were informative in their expositions on the background of both Scott's and Amundsen's trips. Those pieces of informations gave an uninitiated reader a good perspective as to what might have contributed to Scott's tragic failure, and I think they deserve to be included on a platform like Wikipedia. However, I also agree with the editors of those two articles that the removed materials were a bit too long and not directly relevant to Scott and Amundsen in a biographic sense. I have therefore created this article using materials from earlier versions of Scott's and Amundsen's articles.Ken l lee (talk) 05:33, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
