Las Vegas Eiffel Tower merge here
editSomeone has suggested this merge. Kind of makes sense given that the article on the tower really says very little. If the tower retains its own article then would we need a new article for every design feature like the Statue of Liberty? Vegaswikian 21:04, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
- Agreed. The tower is a feature of the hotel (a very good one at that) however if this is allowed to be a seperate article then there will be an explosion of articles for the other hotels such as New York, New York, The Venetian and Caesars Palace. - (Erebus555 11:54, 30 December 2005 (UTC))
- Agree. Looks like a good idea to merge the two. Model Citizen 17:40, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
- Done. I left a redirect here. Vegaswikian 21:41, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
layout issues -- do we like the logo on the right?
editI thought this page looked much better with the logo on the left (e.g. [1]). However, the casino infobox template was changed so that for every casino, the logo now has to go in the infobox. See Template talk:Infobox casino#Changes. --Mathew5000 23:33, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
Height of the Las Vegas Tower
editAccording to the Harrah's website ([2]) the height is 460, not 540 feet.
And even 540 feet is not 5/8 (=0,625x) of original Eiffel Tower, because that's at least 300 m (984 feet) and that's ~0,55x (roughly 5/9). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.217.40.51 (talk) 03:47, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
The observation deck is at 460 feet. Harrah's website implies that. The height of the tower is listed at 540 feet and observation deck at 460 according to LasVegas.com website ([3])
As for the scale 540 to 1063 is more like 1/2 scale 167.129.240.25 (talk) 23:48, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
Agreed - it's a half scale model. I'll change the article. There's a web page on the Paris Las Vegas web site that confirms this at http://www.parislasvegas.com/casinos/paris-las-vegas/casino-misc/eiffel-tower-detail.html . Given that the math proves the claim to be correct, the hotel/casino web site tends to change its pages fairly regularly, and there's already an external link to the main page of the hotel/casino site, I don't think it's useful to include this as a reference.
