Can't this just be merged into Climate of Antarctica? NumberC35 ( talk) 16:09, 15 December 2016 (UTC)
Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just modified 3 external links on Global warming in Antarctica. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

@ Wakelamp: This edit has a few typos and some missing phrases: can you correct them? Jarble ( talk) 02:11, 11 January 2021 (UTC)
I have copied across the content that I found in the article Antartica under climate change. It looked to me like better content than what this article had so far. Normally, I would now propose that Antartica should use use an excerpt of the lead of this article. However, because Antartica is a featured article, I would expect opposition to this proposal. But it doesn't feel right to have exactly the same content in two articles, as it would double up the work in keeping it up to date. EMsmile ( talk) 03:44, 12 March 2021 (UTC)
It seems to me that the article Antarctic sea ice is not well interlinked with this article. There is some overlapping content there, but this article says nothing much about the antarctic sea ice. I have added it to "See also" but I think it ought to be properly integrated into the text; perhaps with a sub-heading and link across to the other article. It's difficult though as this article is organised by decades, not by sub-topics. Not sure how to change this though, and whether it should be changed. EMsmile ( talk) 03:57, 12 March 2021 (UTC)
Hello! We are three students from the Ecological Effects of Climate Changes course at Uppsala University. As a part of our course we have been assigned updating this article. Part of the assignment is to align the structure of the article with the Wikipedia:WikiProject Climate change/Style guide. We will soon start to work with the content on our sandbox pages and our deadline to publish our result is the 19th of May. This is our first experience updating Wikipedia articles and we welcome any feedback! Amattsson ( talk) 05:55, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
This article was the subject of a Wiki Education Foundation-supported course assignment, between 17 January 2022 and 1 May 2022. Further details are available on the course page. Student editor(s): Degra067, Cruzb005, Mconowall ( article contribs).
I've corrected this article twice and twice it's been reverted with one editor calling the edit 'contentious'. The cited article says: We find large variations in and among model estimates of surface mass balance and glacial isostatic adjustment for East Antarctica, with its average rate of mass gain over the period 1992–2017 (5 ± 46 billion tonnes per year) being the least certain.
The wiki article says "estimates an average in loss of 5 ± 46 Gt ice per year during the period of the study." 65.12.145.148 ( talk) 15:53, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
Antarctica cooling controversy is a dated article about what is now an obscure and long-resolved matter. It is also relatively small, and is written in a very inefficient manner, with a lot of extensive direct quotes or the like, so I think half or more of its text can be condensed without losing anything important. I think it can be easily merged into a sub-section here, where temperature trends are already discussed. InformationToKnowledge ( talk) 18:09, 16 January 2024 (UTC)
I was a little surprised by the apparent decision to carry out the merge by moving everything as is, without even removing the duplicated page image, let alone the references. (Although that low-quality article even repeatedly duplicated references 2-4 times across its own text.)
In the merge proposal, I wrote "can be easily merged into a sub-section here', where temperature trends are already discussed.", which I thought made my intention clear. Hopefully, nobody objects now that I have carried out this work. I think that the result we have now works well, with the merged material fitting neatly with the existing text.

Don’t know if anyone else cares but I just switched to the new Wikipedia:Dark mode and like it Chidgk1 ( talk) 07:16, 30 January 2024 (UTC)
The article says:
Antarctica is the coldest and driest continent on Earth, as well as the one with the highest average elevation. Further, it is surrounded by the Southern Ocean, which is by far the most effective heat sink out of any ocean. These factors mean that temperature trends over Antarctica would emerge slower and be more subtle than elsewhere
I don’t understand why being the coldest means that the temperature trend is more subtle. I know the Arctic is not a continent but that is warming faster than warmer places. So why would Antarctica warm more slowly just because it is colder? Chidgk1 ( talk) 12:50, 30 January 2024 (UTC)
