Was Pietro Querini actually Genoese? I knew he was from Venice.

In the Norwegian Wikipedia it is said he was Venetian. Thus I have corrected it.

Climate

We currently write

The winter temperatures in southern Lofoten represent the largest temperature anomaly in the world relative to latitude.

To verify this, we would need to compile a reference table of the average winter temperatures at all latitudes on Earth, but I suspect nobody has done this. Even then, I would think that the winner would be the cold anomaly in Siberia, as cold spots are typically sharper and narrower than warm spots ... but I could be wrong. Either way, could anyone think of a better way to word this sentence, or show me that it's fine the way it is? Thanks, —Soap— 18:39, 11 April 2021 (UTC)

We could just write: The winter temperatures in Lofoten represents one of the largest positive temperature anomalies in the world relative to latitude. Then we are not claiming the largest, and by adding the word positive, the cold anomalies are not relevant. Orcaborealis (talk) 20:25, 11 April 2021 (UTC)

Average yearly extreme temperatures are flawed

Clearly, the average yearly extremes should be more extreme than the average extremes by month. Instead, they look like averages of the latter. Elias (talk) 05:41, 29 June 2021 (UTC)
