sectioning

Something is wrong with the section divisions. Two edit links show up at the end of the second section, Geography and Climate. I've tried fixing this but have been unsuccessful.

Temperature Extremes

The Hottest Temperature in Turfan Pendi Was recorded at Lüfkun, a incredible 94 degrees celsius in August 1929. The Coldest was in Januuary 1937 when it was recorded a all-time lows of -59 degrees celsius in Turfan-shan.

I think 'Fahrenheit' was intended here, not 'Celcius'!PeterMcC (talk) 02:15, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Area

Does anyone know the extent of the area of the oasis, how many acres or square metres is it?

Title

The original title of this page was Turfan (which is the most common spelling in English texts). There wasn't any consensus for moving the page to Turpan (as Rjanag did). If Rjanag insists on moving the page, he should first use the proper procedure of "Move request" and obtain the consensus. Alefbe (talk) 21:09, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
