Can we keep this list to expedition's of utility; educational, scientific research, etc.
This list doesn't cover any Soviet Antarctic Expeditions. For example, between 1955 and 1975 there were 20 of them (the first Soviet Antarctic Expedition was held in 1955-1957) - the list in Russian is available here
Surprisingly, not even a single of those expeditions is mentioned in the article. Perhaps one day I'll add some info. I suppose, that English sources exist too. Everybody is welcome to contribute to this "unexplored field". Cmapm 15:30, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
Some photos that might be {{ PD-Soviet}} and more information here. - FrancisTyers 17:06, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
That's the way you do it !! Cordially SirIsaacBrock 20:49, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
I move all references here and replace them just by two ones, one of which is to the 3-volume monograph in Russian, covering 1st SAE to 40th RAE. BTW, surprisingly, it is available "online" through Google's cache and I can look for any inf. there except images. Another one is a periodical in English. I also add a link to inf. about some SAE from the British Antarctic Society and remove "fact" tags, no more need when referenced, like e.g. inf. "in red" about German expeditions. I'll do more work on the list, including leaders and other expeditions later.

Shouldn't the title of this article be List of Antarctic expeditions as seeing as Antarctic is the adjective? Otherwise it should be List of Expeditions to Antarctica. You wouldn't write List of Germany Expeditions? Come to think of it, it's probably preferable to call the article List of Expeditions to Antarctica otherwise is could be misconstrued as being expeditions from Antarctica, as in German expeditions (to...) Anyone agree? Or am I just being overly fussy? Iancaddy 23:11, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition (JARE). 1968-1969. Dr. Muriyama (spelling?) of the University of Tokyo led. Spent 3 days at the Admundsen-Scott Station (South Pole Station) for Christmas of 1968. They partied so hard, they drove over the horizon the next day, stopped, and rested for a day. They had much nicer boots than the American "Mickey Mouse" boots. A book (in English) was published covering the expedition's research and discoveries.

Dr. Brady Haran's trip could also be included, (it should be). :D — Preceding unsigned comment added by 47.136.97.150 ( talk) 23:45, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
Only the first Operation Deep Freeze mission is listed, yet there were two more (at least). — Loadmaster 01:00, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
Shackleton did not reach the South Magnetic Pole at 88.23'S on 16th January 1909. He did get to that latitude, on 9th January 1909, while attempting to reach the geographic pole. The South Magnetic Pole was reached on 16th Jan at 72.25'S, on the same expedition, by Prof. Edgworth David. I have made the necessary correction. Brianboulton ( talk) 18:49, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
And Shackleton's name shouldn't be on the Discovery Expedition entry. He wasn't the leader and anyway stopped just short of the Furthest South. I've deleted him Brianboulton ( talk) 23:38, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
Hi, I translated and modified the French map on the same subject and created File:File-Expeditions in Antarctica before 1897.png. Questions, comments, suggestions are welcome. I'd like to draw the routes of the expeditions mentioned in the legend box but don't have any sources. Maybe you have? bamse ( talk) 00:31, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
Hey, if I plan an Antarctic cruise, does that make it an expedition? We should probably restrict this list to stayovers on the continent with the intention of producing serious scientific or cultural work. We don't need a list of bored jet-setters who've been everywhere else. -- Wtshymanski ( talk) 18:50, 24 August 2011 (UTC)
Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to one external link on
List of Antarctic expeditions. Please take a moment to review
my edit. If necessary, add {{
cbignore}}
after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{
nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}}
to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:
When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true to let others know.

Would it be appropriate to include Major_explorations_after_the_Age_of_Discovery#/media/File:Expeditions_in_Antarctica_before_1897.png in this article? Alekksandr ( talk) 14:38, 20 January 2019 (UTC)
As I was looking for more external links for the former soviet speed skater, Lyudmila Titova, I found this page linked to her: Translated: Dedicated to the 10th anniversary of the team Metelits's transition to the south pole ... (from russian). Should this expedition be included in the list as well ? Best regards Migrant ( talk) 13:59, 24 August 2019 (UTC)
Has listed on his own website as being completed by him: The longest solo, unsupported Polar Journey [completed in Antarctica] in Human History (2019/20), The first summit of Dome Argus [in Antarctica], solo and unsupported (2019/20), The fastest solo, unsupported crossing of Antarctica (2013/14). For references, see: Wikipedia:WikiProject Antarctica/Article requests. Possible inclusion in this article? and/or possible own article?
