Watermania, Cyprus

The park depicted is actually "Slide n'Splash" in the Algarve, Portugal. You can see (part of) its name above the red and white sun umbrella and a bit in its right too. In the umbrella it's even written "A origem do café", which is a portuguese slogan to a brand of coffee meaning "the origin of the coffee". And last, I've been there lots of times and recognize the park. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.196.32.31 (talk) 23:59, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

US water park list

I think that the US water park list is a bit off. The top says "notable water parks", but it includes a tiny waterpark in northern Wisconsin, the Waters of Minocqua. If the Waters is notable, then every waterpark in the Dells is at least as notable.

Ohio-Kalahari Resorts

There is a great Indoor waterpark in Ohio, called Kalahari. It is large and only growing and I think that this resort is definately notable in your list!! It is located in Sandusky, Ohio. Also, where Cedar Point is. But Mi is the most important place to go! You can live and it there for only 5$! So travelers come on.

Comprehensive list of US Waterparks

Check out: Waterpark Directory They contain a searchable list of waterparks from around the US with links to each and misc info about them. Easy to use and lots of 'em. 14:54, 4 July 2006 User:66.190.44.43 (Talk) (Comprehensive list of US Waterparks)

Vandalism

Some one please fix the vandalism in the indoor waterpark section. There is no such thing as Noah's Boat Waterpark (most likley parody of Noah's Ark) and the Kalahari in Sandusky is America's largest indoor waterpark, not the hotel in Honoloulu —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.128.102.34 (talk) 15:32, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Biggest

Please list the biggest 10, this may be noteworthy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fulldecent (talkcontribs) 15:55, 18 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Water park versus waterpark

Checking online dictionaries and publications, the term "water park" is almost always cited as two words as opposed to one. I am considering changing this and wasn't sure if there were past discussions on the subject (I didn't see any). If there are any objections, please post them here. Thanks!

I'd support the move. Themeparkgc  Talk  22:10, 16 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

History section isn't

The History section is more an explanation and trivia section than any form of history. Could this be fixed? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.18.44.173 (talk) 22:55, 19 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Non-US Parks

This article seems highly US-centric, while there is a vibrant market of water parks elsewhere - in particular Italy. What can we do?
