Infobox

to be really useful this article needs an ibox to get a geotag and hence a map I think Victuallers (talk) 15:52, 21 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Good luck finding one... -- Anonymous Dissident^Talk 14:52, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I added the geotag from the Danish version of this article. As for the infobox, I agree: a map would be much better than a picture of James Cook. E James (talk) 15:28, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
