Most of the external links in this article fail WP:EL, in particular WP:ELNO#EL1 and WP:ELNO#EL5, and should be removed. SpinningSpark 22:39, 12 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

Terminology

edit

AFAIK, 'impossible bottle' is purely AE. I've never heard the term used at all in BE. If this regional usage can be confirmed, the article should mention it. --Ef80 (talk) 20:05, 6 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

just my 2¢, but i had never actually heard the phrase "impossible bottle" before this article, just "ship in a bottle". of course, that doesn't really cover the other examples. Boomur [] 20:15, 6 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

Ways to build one

edit

Isn't there a third way, namely to take a bottle without a bottom, place the ship inside, and then glaze the bottom in place? 77.183.18.70 (talk) 17:16, 16 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

I think this article is worthy of a section on Harry Eng, the modern master of impossible bottles. I would be happy to add this but would appreciate others' views before I do. 84.65.252.59 (talk) 10:06, 10 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
