Brianboulton comments: A somewhat surprising topic that will bring smiles to many (and maybe tears to a few). I have been to Iceland; how did I miss this? Just a few questions:-

The lead is not adequate at present. It should be expanded into a summray of the whole article, briefly mentioning each of the salient areas of the article, including for example the museum's history.
The lead image description should be more informative. Is this the museum's official logo? It is described as the museum's "sign", but its location should be indicated.

What makes Salon.com a reliable source?
What is the language of the source in citation 8?

Icelandic, added to the citation. Pinkie Pie

The sentence: "The museum also has a "folklore section" exhibiting mythological penises; its online catalogue lists specimens taken from elves, trolls, kelpies, and "The Nasty Ghost of Snaefell" is cited to the online catalogue. Is it possible to make the citation a little more detailed, to assist in finding this information?

As the precise address of the museum is included in the article, what is the justification for incuding geographic coordinates?

Shouldn't all landmarks have geographic coordinates, even if the address is included in the article? Pinkie Pie

Where does that idea come from?? Brianboulton (talk) 01:02, 18 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Well, it seems consistant from article to article. Pinkie Pie 10:49, 18 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Binksternet comments

The cites are not consistent with how they say the language. There is (in Icelandic) and (Icelandic). The 2003 Jónsson cite should put the language in a cite parameter which would look like this: |language=Icelandic

Cite 13, the catalogue, should have its actual title displayed in the cite. When I clicked on it, the title was "Fréttir af Reðasafninu:"
The "size is everything" cite... who is the author? The byline says "AFP". Is AFP a person or a news agency?

AFP is Agence France-Presse, an agency. This is already in the citation. Wagner lol (talk) 17:06, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
