Salar del Hombre Muerto
[edit]- ... that one of the most important sources of lithium in the world bears the name "Salt pan of the Dead Man"?
- Comment: "Salar del Hombre Muerto" literally translates as "Salar of the Dead Man".
Moved to mainspace by Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk). Self-nominated at 15:54, 18 May 2019 (UTC).
New, in time, long enough, sourced, no apparent copyvios. While the article uses "dead man's salt pan," which is substantively identical to "salt pan of the dead man." Also, although there doesn't appear to be a source for the translation (whereas there are sources for the importance of the lithium output), my understanding is that Wikipedia allows self translations, and using Google appears to confirm this as an appropriate translation. --Usernameunique (talk) 02:17, 19 May 2019 (UTC)
