Talk:Dolomites

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article incorporates text from the Encyclopædia Britannica Eleventh Edition, now in the public domain.

Removed two useless tourism links (dolomiten.suedtirol.com & selvadicadore.biz) not even providing usefull information like maps or pictures).

Would also be nice if someone could find a map locating the Dolomites on the Italian/European map.

[edit] dolomite not a type of limestone

I made a minor edit changing "...dolomite, a type of limestone..." to "...dolomite, a type of carbonate rock..." as dolomite definately is not a type of limestone, that is why it is called dolomite and not limestone (although there are "dolomitic limestones."

[edit] Needs more work

This is a very weak article at the moment. It is little more than two large tables. It would be nice if we could expand it to include more information on the history, culture etc of the region. The Dolomites is a fascinating region. It deserves a better article.

I have added a link to an external map. Take a look at it and let me know if you think it should be deleted. Mrslippery 23:04, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
