"World's northernmost Hindu temple"

[edit]

This article has a couple of references claiming this is the northernmost Hindu temple in the world. It is not. The Sri Tiller Ganesha Temple in Trondheim (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hinduism_in_Norway#Hindus_Temples_in_Norway) is farther north at latitude 63.34553°N (https://goo.gl/maps/caDQ5FVCdsPKPgYA6). The Sri Ganesha Temple of Alaska's latitude is 61.159402°N, more than two degrees south of the Trondheim Hindu temple. Therefore, I am deleting this article's claim of it being the northernmost Hindu temple in the world along with said references. Per https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Accuracy, I request editors not to add these back. Thank you. Ram1751 (talk) 23:44, 19 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
