Weather box for Istanbul

[edit]

In case anyone wants to include weather data in a form of a "weather box" in the Climate of Istanbul article, instead of current "climate chart" (copy the "weather box" code from the section's source)

@D.Nino There are already many weatherboxes in this article, and please keep in mind that Weather Atlas is not a reliable source for most weather information. Uness232 (talk) 14:37, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No problem, that's why I've added it to the Talk Section D.Nino (talk) 14:39, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@D.Nino I understand, but you should not be adding entire weatherboxes with Weather Atlas data in general. Weather Atlas claims, for example, that Istanbul receives 400mm of rain, which is at least 200mm away from being true in any part of the city. The sunshine data is also highly anomalous from what we would expect. Uness232 (talk) 14:59, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
