A fact from Gulf of Finland appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 1 July 2010 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that the entire 30,000 km² (12,000 sq mi) area of the Gulf of Finland may freeze (pictured) in winter?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2010/July.

The map is obviously incorrect, as Finland is not part of Scandinavia, and Poland is not a Baltic State. --Ghirlandajo 09:33, 25 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Physical similarity to Denmark

Perhaps I am the only one who finds this interesting... I have always been intrigued by the gulf's apparent similarity in size and shape to the Danish mainland, and recently asked the experts at National Geographic if there was any significance to this. They said it is just coincidence. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.75.214.250 (talk) 03:14, 16 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

speaks of past dates as if they are in the future

This article refers in many places to past dates with a reference indicating they are in the future. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.187.224.162 (talk) 17:55, 27 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I've added some templates to the article to highlight this. Bazonka (talk) 18:12, 27 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
