Talk:One day in Bangkok

Latest comment: 9 years ago by Ikan Kekek in topic Personal itinerary

For the record, this itinerary was originally largely inspired by Stickman's Tour of Bangkok, although the careful reader will note that quite a few bits and pieces have changed. I've done this loop personally around 3 times and directed friends to it about as often, so it's about time I got it in written form! (WT-en) Jpatokal 06:02, 22 Sep 2004 (EDT)

I note that there's no mention of "Chess". --(WT-en) Evan 06:46, 9 Feb 2005 (EST)
Chess...? What am I missing? (WT-en) Jpatokal 07:35, 9 Feb 2005 (EST)
A very dumb joke. The 1986 rock musical Chess featured a song "One Night In Bangkok" that was a minor pop hit. --(WT-en) Evan 10:19, 5 Dec 2005 (EST)

I tried going to the resturant (Baan Khanitha) mentioned but after wondering aimlessly, I have a assume the place no longer exist ... I believe the resturant has moved... see: [1] -- Noam 06 Dec, 2005

That's a surprise -- the Ruamrudee location is the original, the one in Sukhumvit is the newer one. But thanks for noting this and saving others from the trouble, I've also amended the Bangkok/Sukhumvit page. (WT-en) Jpatokal 22:15, 5 Dec 2005 (EST)

The transliteration for pomelo salad shouldn't have an ending "m" - maybe "som-oh!" capture the right sound better for English speakers?

Grand Palace

edit

I think it's a bit strange the Grand Palace is skipped on this one.. shouldn't it be on any one day Bangkok itinerary? --(WT-en) globe-trotter 12:19, 25 January 2010 (EST)

Star?

edit

I'm off to Bangkok later in the year and I'm wondering what I can do to help make this article a star? I'd be glad to help out. (PS I'm new to contributing so apologies if I'm going about this the wrong way) (WT-en) thatbelinda 10 Feb 2010

Welcome! This looks like a fairly thorough article -- revisions and improvements are always welcome, but comparing to other star itineraries, it could probably use a map to push it up to that status... not always easy to create. Please also feel free to edit the main Bangkok article, it's also inching up towards a star. - (WT-en) D. Guillaime 13:07, 10 February 2010 (EST)

We discourage them. How is this not exactly that? Hobbitschuster (talk) 22:16, 30 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

In practice, exceptions have been made for Guide-level articles of this type, though not for Usable articles, which I think is unfortunate, as we lost a pretty good itinerary article for Hong Kong as a result. Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:49, 31 May 2015 (UTC)Reply
