Falconcity

How does Falconcity [1] connect with Dubailand? Peter S. 14:54, 15 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Falconcity will be apparently inside Dubailand 69.23.120.11 08:52, 29 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Where did you read that? In which part will it reside? Peter S. 13:45, 29 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Here you can find it: http://realestate.theemiratesnetwork.com/developments/dubai/dubailand.php

In its article Falconcity of Wonders, it's said that there would be "life-size replicas of the seven wonders of the world such as the Egyptian pyramids, the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, and other famous monuments such as the Eiffel Tower, the Taj Mahal and the Leaning Tower of Pisa". But the picture on this article does not have the Falconcity in it. 85.217.36.130 (talk) 03:14, 26 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

After some googling, I must say the image must be quite old, since the images I found, show a very much bigger area. 85.217.36.130 (talk) 03:27, 26 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Dubailand - Name is one word

The official site uses "Dubailand" (One word) and not Dubai Land. I think the page name should be corrected--RadicalSatDude 18:41, 7 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Redxiv 03:46, 17 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Observaton wheel

The Great Dubai Wheel, which will be the world's 2nd largest observation wheel after Shanghai Kiss But Shanghai Kiss was stopped before it was built. Does this mean the Great Dubai Wheel will be the world's largest? What does "largest" mean? There are several wheels listed at observation wheel which discuss the world's "tallest" wheels, will this one be taller, contain more seats, what? Corvus cornix_talk 00:10, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Anyone know the height of the Wheel? A similar wheel is opening in Melbourne Australia and that could be one that its compared to. --Cafejunkie (talk) 03:55, 17 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Disneyland Resort

I don't think Disney is a part of this project. Any one else hear different? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.251.204.79 (talk) 23:53, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You are correct. I have removed it from the list. Leitmanp (talk | contributions) 22:37, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

New Pictures

It would be really nice to get a picture that is more recent. The one on the article is already over two years old. --Epborn (talk) 19:13, 3 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Development

Im thinking of converting this section into a timeline to better track the announcement. Anyone have an opinion? Dubaiguy (talk) 17:19, 27 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Can you please explain what you mean in a little more detail? If I understand you correctly, you want to get rid of the paragraphs and just have bullets. Right? I am opposed to that. I personally think sentences are better than a list of dates and events. It is a more encyclopedic way of providing information here on Wikipedia. Leitmanp (talk | contributions) 02:24, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Updates

I know it is next to impossible to get realistic information about any of the delayed or cancelled projects in Dubai, but can anyone update this article with meaningful information? Alex Middleton (talk) 23:52, 17 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Dinosaurs

Dubai Land is said to be going to have a lifesize dinosaur walking around the park! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.85.1.29 (talk) 10:28, 18 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
