message: For the record, I love Lake Travis and have lived on and around it for over 20 years now.  Having said that, this article formerly read, prior to today's edits, like a Chamber of Commerce brochure.  Recent and unending deaths on the lake clearly necessitate that we all show responsibility for an improvement that embraces the lake we love, yet points out the largest causes of deaths and -- most importantly -- how to best avoid them.  I hope I've achieved a strong step in the right direction. --2602:306:BC24:8DF0:456C:DD75:A639:FD98 (talk) 21:57, 17 August 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: The Wikipedia article on Lake Travis is not here so that self-appointed safety experts can advise people on how to boat safely and repeat statistics on boat safety that aren't specific to Lake Travis. I've left the stats that pertain to Lake Travis directly and removed the rest, your love of Lake Travis notwithstanding. This article is not the place to "show responsibility for an improvement that embraces the lake we love." Please see WP:NOT. The info you posted would be more appropriate on your own personal Lake Travis website, which you are free to build anytime you want. LAroboGuy (talk) 14:29, 27 April 2017 (UTC)

text: You threatened an established editor here with your statement "You may expect your rollback authority to be removed in the very near-immediate future." You're the one who should be issuing an apology to that editor. That behavior is unacceptable. LAroboGuy (talk) 14:29, 27 April 2017 (UTC)

message: Five boats sank in Lake Travis, not four. I was not able to make this correction because there is no "Edit" button at the top of this article. 173.88.246.138 (talk) 11:44, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
thread_title: Five boats sank, not four

message: September 2020 boat sinkings
On September 5, 2020, a boat parade took place in support of Donald Trump. The Travis County Sheriff's office reported that they had received multiple calls involving boats in distress, and that several boats had sunk.[7] The weather was calm, but the boats generated significant wake as they began to move together, which subsequently sank at least five boats.[8] The hashtag #dumbkirk trended on Twitter following the incident.[9]
This seems irrelevant today. 77.248.235.127 (talk) 10:36, 10 January 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Could probably be added to a general history section. Overall I think it should stay - it was hilarious.   2A00:23C4:3E44:2C01:F922:E57E:7E65:5835 (talk) 11:54, 11 May 2024 (UTC)
