Can someone please verify the accuracy of the Astronomy section? roncerito (talk) 13:45, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
The data saying how far inland it is is good, but how far is this base from the South Pole? I followed the co-ordinates link, but that took me to the Mercator projection map used at Google Maps, so that was no good for the Antarctic. Carcharoth 12:43, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
Obviously some agreement was made and some capital, either real or political, changed hands. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.171.21.206 (talk) 04:55, 25 December 2012 (UTC)
The first (currently in the article) is a rather odd wording... one should write "few hundred meters" instead. Or is the latter intended? Please fix if you know this. -- 92.229.117.202 (talk) 03:06, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
What is the annual snowfall at Concordia ? (Is it a problem like at Halley?). How fast does the ice flow that Concordia is built on ? - Rod57 (talk) 02:24, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

This article would benefit a description of the Concordia station's construction, how it adjusts to fluctuating snow conditions, and its environmental control and life support systems. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.2.202.206 (talk) 13:17, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
The Astronomy section states that the station is 'suitable for extremely accurate observations', yet the seeing is 'significantly worse': So, which is it? Is the station good or bad for astronomy? Moonraker12 (talk) 23:43, 30 August 2021 (UTC)
Next to each person who has wintered-over at Concordia, there is a little flag icon. For MOST people the usage is reasonably clear but this does seem to be a case of MOS:FLAGCRUFT too. There are two possible meanings of these flag icons:
In three cases (at the time that I write this) there are TWO flags next to the person's name (Canada/Belgium, France/Italy, and Italy/Australia). These seem to be a mix of the two use-cases listed above. In three cases there is a flag of a third country next to a person who is in one of the PNRA/IPEV positions (2x Russian, and a Swiss).
I note that the same confusions exist in both the Italian and French Wikipedia articles.
I propose that we have no flags, or, a single flag which represent the nationality of the sponsoring research agency and not the citizenship(s) of the person. In many people's cases this is the same (i.e. an italian working for PNRA) but a non-negligible proportion of people have multiple citizenships or are citizens of different countries than those for whom they work (e.g. swiss citizen working for PNRA). I see no reason why we are listing dual citizenships, nor is it reliable-source verifiable for many people. Perhaps there should be a description of each Winter-over's group in prose, but it should not simplified down to merely flags without context. Wittylama 15:06, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
