Contradictory information

Whilst the geographical coordinates in the top-right corner of this article give 50˚30'51"N 1˚37'17"E, whilst the bullet point list (which should really be in an appropriate template) says 50°31'07"N 1°38'29"E. French wikipedia gives 50°31’07"N 1°38’ 29"E. Since I know nothing about the town (having come across the article during research), I cannot fix the problem myself. Would somebody appropriate address this. --Svm2 20:50, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The bullet points have now been replaced with an infobox (thanks me!), but the coordinates contradiction (described below) is still there. If nobody objects in the next 48 hours, I will use the coordinates as given by French wikipedia as definitive. --Svm2 16:14, 10 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The action described in my previous entry has been executed. If you would like to see for yourself the two conflicting coordinates on a map, click here (the coordinates used in this article as well as on French wikipedia is the one towards the top with the play symbol in a green background), and make a case for either, please do so on this discussion page at any point. May I also remind anybody creating articles about French communes to use the appropriate template (which is found on this article) instead of making a bullet point list or a custom table. --Svm2 18:25, 12 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Article rewritten

The expansion of the article by RJP in 2006 ought to have been challenged long ago. It was poorly referenced, written from a mainly English point of view, and contained a large amount of irrelevant information about English history. The revision has tried to address some of these problems. Mzilikazi1939 (talk) 00:36, 24 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You are wrong. English history and also Dutch history, is indeed highly relevent to Estaples, and most of land north of the Somme river. A good deal of these places are (to this day) still longer been Dutch/English then French. Tough if you no likey, it's what happens when your imperialistic, most of the rim of France is annexed land - and oft at the blessing of the English/British. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 5.69.57.38 (talk) 21:21, 9 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

When was Étaples annexed into France?

Étaples like most of the abodes about there, was not always within France and culturally even longer non-French. Can the aforesaid get a byword? Weird it's been left out of it's history. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 5.69.57.38 (talk) 21:14, 9 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Quentovic archaeological museum

The Quentovic archaeological museum has long been closed pour des raisons de vétusté du bâtiment (disrepair) and there seem to be no specific plans to reopen it. I cannot find a source for this information, nor can I find any source for the museum's continued existence. Even the museum's Web site is closed. I am removing it from the Places of interest to forestall visitor disappointment. Frans Fowler (talk) 21:00, 17 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The town site says the museum is closed indefinitely. The blacklisted france-voyage.com explains that it was housed in a 16th-century building which "was closed in 2015 for safety reasons". Sweetpool50 (talk) 21:42, 17 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
