message: This article seems to me not to be an appropriate holder of NRHP listing information for the Sears, Roebuck building from 1929.  See Sears, Roebuck and Company Department Store (Miami, Florida) and Downtown Miami Multiple Resource Area.  What was NRHP-listed was NOT the modern Adrienne Arsht Center building complex;  that contains just one vestige of the 1930 Art Deco masterpiece that was the subject of the NRHP nomination.  I plan to remove the merger proposal tags on the two articles and remove the NRHP infobox from this article. --doncram (talk) 15:04, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Government of Miami-Dade County

message: It seems like schools/education is a major omission from this, if anyone is looking to do some more research. Are K12 and community colleges at the city level or county level here? How is the funding apportioned and how does that relate to how the boundaries have been drawn? Cliff bar (talk) 16:15, 28 October 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: This article is about the government of Miami-Dade County. That government has nothing to do with education in the county. As is indicated in :Miami-Dade County, Florida#Education, all public schools (K-12) in the county are operated by the Miami-Dade school district, which has its own elected board, and is independent of county government. Miami Dade College is a public college serving Miami-Dade County. It is independent of the county government and the school district. Florida International University is a state university. All other colleges and universities in the county are private. Again, as the government of Miami-Dade County has no control over any education in the county, there is no reason to cover education in this article. - Donald Albury 18:58, 28 October 2019 (UTC)

Talk:Gold Coast (Florida)

message: I significantly cut the length of this article. The large paragraph on the etymology of the term was added in one fell swoop by an unregistered user and only slightly modified over the history of this article. It contained numerous copy-editing errors, was entirely unsourced, and read like an ad, especially the last bit about Miami. In all, it focused more on Art Deco, Miami, and Miami tourism than on the Gold Coast per se.
I began by copy-editing the article, and debated splitting it into sections and marking the part that seemed an ad to me with . However, when I realized that I'd created a section "Miami Today," I also realized that that entire section did not belong in this article, as well as much of the other material of this article. If anyone wants to try to add the material I removed into the Miami or Art Deco or even what's-his-name Flagler articles, feel free, but I do not feel it belongs here.
It should be easier for anyone so motivated to fact-check the condensed version. If it's factually inaccurate, I apologize; I merely used the information given in the former, sprawling, likewise uncited paragraph on the etymology. Growth for this page would seem appropriate along the lines of some of the other XYZ Coast pages for Florida.

thread_title:  WikiProject Miami 

message: I'm still looking for a source, but I remember reading many years ago that the name "Gold Coast" was invented as a tourist promotion because the surf on the beaches from Palm Beach to Miami Beach was much milder than further north. This is due to the presence of the Bahamas banks screening the coast from swells from the open Atlantic. At the end of the 19th century and through the first half of the 20th century tourists were looking for a pleasant bathing experience at the seaside, and the combination of mild surf and warm water at Palm Beach, Miami Beach, and points between, was "golden". I am not aware of any treasure ships that wrecked in the region of the "Gold Coast". When I was growing up in Miami, the only legends of treasure or of gold coins being found that I heard revolved around Elliott Key and :Black Caesar (pirate). -- Donald Albury 01:51, 14 March 2012 (UTC)

message: The article says (in Faster-than-light observations and experiments​): If a laser beam is swept quickly across a distant object, the spot of light can move faster than c. Should you say "from the perspective of the observer"?
Another way of looking at it is that each photon cannot move faster than the speed of light. Pretend you have a laser that will sweep across the moon's surface (about one-half an angular degree from Earth) in, let's say, one microsecond (or 1000 nanoseconds). But the "spot" (as observed from Earth) is an illusion. 
What we see from Earth may appear to move much faster on the moon than one foot per ns (taking the  moon's diameter to be 3500 km diameter). But we're observing the spot from Earth. On the moon, each individual photon (which travels to the moon in about 1.4 seconds and 1.4 seconds back) is independent from all the others. If you had a laser that could emit just 1000 photons in the microsecond that it takes to complete our sweep then, from the moon, you would observe one photon hitting the surface about every 3.5 km (3500 km diameter / 1000 ns).

message: The "Venn diagram highlighting the key features of different types of open access in scholarly publishing" contains mistakes. For example Gold OA and Diamond OA are exclusive, with Gold OA restricted to "author pays", whereas the definition of Gold OA in the page specifies correctly:
The majority of gold open access journals charging APCs follow an "author-pays" model,[13] although this is not an intrinsic property of gold OA.
The diagram also includes two types of "Vanity press", neither of which are defined in the page nor in the source article . Marcrr (talk) 15:04, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree. The conflation of "gold" with "APC" is a long standing and frustrating mistake for many. If reproduced here, it should be explained that some people define "gold OA" as for-fee even though the label was not intended to mean that. Diprose, et al. reflect on this problem (https://doi.org/10.3998/jep.3398). They propose a less complicated set of labels without really resolving the problem that these labels are meant to describe both how things are paid for and what version they might be.

1. https://www.go-fair.org/resources/faq/ask-question-difference-fair-data-open-data/
"FAIR is not equal to Open: The ‘A’ in FAIR stands for ‘Accessible under well defined conditions’. There may be legitimate reasons to shield data and services generated with public funding from public access...  None of these [FAIR] principles necessitate data being “open” or “free”."

Talk:Black Stump

message: In regard to the contribution by Ian Olsson regarding Raffaello Carboni's use of the phrase 'black-stump', I've deleted:
Here the definition of the black stump is thought to be was beyond ones understanding probably used in everyday discussions between miners in the Ballarat gold rush days. In this way the black stump symbolised something that could not be fathomed as is the more distant derivation of today.
This uncited opinion seems to be drawing an extremely long bow.  Carboni's quote seems to be referring to an object (i.e., the blackened pipe).  How it comes to mean a gold-digger's expression for something that is beyond a person's understanding is beyond my understanding.  Ikeshut 05:13, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

message: In the subsection "Contested origin: places", the following sentence occured:
If the use of the expression ‘black stump’ entered the Australian vernacular in the nineteenth century, it appears to be absent from Australian literature or newspaper reports until the twentieth century.
However, this directly contradicts the previous mentions of "the black stump" in Boldrewood and the Bulletin, both in the 19th Century!  Therefore, I've changed the quoted sentence to read:
If the use of the expression ‘black stump’ entered the Australian vernacular in the nineteenth century, it rarely appeared in Australian literature or newspaper reports until the twentieth century.
