I have a couple questions about this building relating to the border. How does the border patrol deal with people trying to cross the border in the area? Is there a fence or something ? What is there to stop people from passing throught the building to get to the other country? I think that these additions would inprove the article as it is a unique building.

My personal experience falls under WP:OR and is therefore not suitable for the article. There is no fence. The entry to the building is on the Vermont side. U.S. Customs and Border Protection has the area under video surveillance. Pedestrians from the Canadian side may enter the building on foot, as long as they return to Québec when they leave or report to US Customs if they proceed into Vermont. Keep in mind it's a couple of small towns where everyone knows everyone else. Suspicious activity would be noticed right away.-- Gridlock Joe 15:03, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Locator Dot[edit]

Just a note that it needs to be fixed, it is currently east of Maine on the border of the map. I don't know enough about how the dot placement script works to fix myself ... --Canuckguy (talk) 16:55, 8 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The red dot is displaying in the Atlantic Ocean. Can this be fixed? Badagnani (talk) 05:48, 26 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
You have to play with the "x" vector (preview!). That should line it up. I thought I had done this once. (Didn't check back to see if that were true).Student7 (talk) 12:10, 26 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I've fixed it as best as I could. Reade (talk) 04:40, 24 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Direction of titles[edit]

Can't you also tell the language of the book by, you know, what language the title is in? 174.57.203.45 (talk) 03:58, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This is some sort of convention, probably an international one since English is the most common language. There are many books in English with a French title. I suppose the reverse is true as well. A browser does not have to pull down each book and peruse it to discover if it is in his/her own preferred language. Student7 (talk) 19:11, 17 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Are there any books that were published before the convention was adopted?--Felix Folio Secundus (talk) 12:14, 21 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
In France, book titles are written in either direction, but bottom-to-top is more common (at least among the books I have). Gneisss (talk) 04:17, 14 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Now used as a meeting place for Iranian families separated by Trump's travel ban: see this article... -- AnonMoos (talk) 20:05, 29 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
