Talk:Parkstone railway station

message: Wondering if 'disused' tag should really be there???...the line is still open and in use, it is just the operator that has become superseded...If you follow that route, it will come to stations and track that have been closed or removed, but the two lines through Parkstone itself are still there as part of the mainline between Bournemouth and Poole - has the 'disused' tag been added to the other stations on this route that are still in operation/track still used??

Talk:2007 Togolese parliamentary election

message: : Can this really be considered NPOV if a vast majority of all the sourcing comes from the government run official website?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.243.185.240 (talk) 19:43, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: The official results (now here) are rather inconsistent. The total number of votes cast for parties is given as 2,344,108, but the actual sum of valid votes (including for independents) is 2,295,573. Similarly, the number of invalid votes (181,941 vs 180,836) and registered voters (2,974,718 vs 2,908,487) also differ.
The difference is roughly 50,000 for the number of votes and 66,000 for number of registered voters. Is it possible that the results file omits one district/region?
I notice that the results table currently contains the party totals, with the difference noted as "Others", which is a little misleading. Number 57 14:25, 10 November 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: I note that the Election Passport website gives the complete figures using the same totals I calculated above from the individual constituencies, and does not highlight any missing. Perhaps these are indeed correct, and CENI's sum was in error? Number 57 15:54, 10 November 2015 (UTC)

message: It seems to me this article needs a lot of work. It's current state is mostly unsourced info and lists of "notable" buildings. However, there is no set definition for notable, and there's no sources for those either. Not much of this article is info that isn't already in the Macon, Georgia page. 
I'm not suggesting a page deletion, as there are other, well-written pages for Downtown city districts. Example: Downtown Atlanta
Also, while I can confirm the gallery of images are of buildings from Macon, having a gallery as the primary info on the page is not encouraged, per WP:IG. Any thoughts?

message: The following was removed from the article because of the following reasons:
* No Original Research
* Article was written like a review
* Not written in third person
* Target words like "profitable" throws off the NPOV Wikipedia stands for
FIT Jensen Beach was a very profitable campus. I was on the faculty there at the time and the administration publicly announced the closing of the campus on the day of the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster and with the stroke of a pen the lives of the faculty, staff, and students would never be the same. The administration’s plan was to sell the property to developers for luxury waterfront condos and use the money to fund pensions for retiring faculty. But the plan backfired. The residents and town of Jensen Beach and I believe Ralph Evinrude’s family (his wife’s Outrigger Resort was next door) fought the zoning change and they were unable to proceed with their plans. To my knowledge it has since been a church campus and a drug rehab facility. At the time of the closure FIT Jensen Beach programs were recognized world wide and the people responsible for the closure will surely smoke a turd in purgatory. My Name is Richard Brantley and I reside in North Carolina now.

Talk:Hutchinson Island (Florida)

message: "It is bounded on the east by the Atlantic Ocean, on the south by the St. Lucie Inlet, on the west by the Indian River, and on the north by the Fort Pierce Inlet, which separates it from what is known in St Lucie County as North Hutchinson Island, or sometimes "North Beach." North Hutchinson Island extends into Indian River County, but it is rarely called that north of the county line. In fact the Indian River county portion which extends to the Sebastian Inlet is usually called Orchid Island, although it is not a separate island."
The names of these islands comes from the fact that the original St. Lucie Inlet was north of its present location, near Pepper Park in St. Lucie County. After the original inlet that separated Hutchinson Island from Orchid Island filled in, a new inlet was created farther south. This new inlet separated Hutchinson Island into a new North Hutchinson Island North of the new inlet, and the remaining island South of the new inlet which was still called Hutchinson Island. 
The Orchid Island name extends through Indian River County into St. Lucie County to the old inlet, from the old inlet South to the new inlet the name North Hutchinson Island is correct, South of the new inlet Hutchinson Island is the correct name.
The confusion exists because unless you know the history and where to look for the old inlet, you will miss it. The old inlet has been filled in and looks like the island to the North and South of it.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.8.112.144 (talk) 13:19, 21 August 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Biscayne

message: The current arrangement of names under 'South Florida' implies that 'Biscayne Bay' was the primary use and all the rest derive from that.

replies: text: OK, reformatted.  More importantly: How often is Key Biscayne called "Biscayne"?  A disambiguation page X should only list things which are at least sometimes called X, not things with X as part of their name. Maybe Key Biscayne should be demoted to "See also".   And maybe Bay Biscayne creeping-oxeye should be omitted altogether. jnestorius(talk) 15:40, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: For that matter, Biscayne Bay, Biscayne Boulevard, the Chevy Biscayne and the USS Biscayne are the only ones I would expect to hear referred to as just "Biscayne", depending on context.

I also have serious doubts about the licensing of all four of the photos added to this article by Marcolazzara2. The uploader to Wikipedia Commons is a user on the Italian Wikipedia, Marcolazzara who claims that he took the photos himself. Quite a feat, since he is also the subject of the photos and they look to be commercially produced portraits and production photos.
