Talk:Winter Park, Florida

message: Okay, someone reverted my edit in which I unlinked "Central Park" under points of interest (and messaged me about it), which even included an EXPLANATION of why.  The article on Central Park is about the one in New York... not in Florida.  In fact, Winter Park's version is just an allusion to the one in NY, with "Park Avenue" running down the edge of it.  I'm going to put my edit back until someone provides a reasonable reason for keeping it linked.  71.0.240.87 22:55, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

message: Whereas there is evidence that both President Arthur and Cleveland visited Winter Park there is no evidence
that Benjamin Harrison ever visited Florida. I communicated with the Benjamin Harrison Presidential
Library and they have no evidence that he did. I will leave his on the discussion page and unless after
time there is any supporting evidence, I will change this narrative. Small item I know but history writing
should be accurate as possible. Ourhistory153 (talk) 16:04, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

message: The following user comment by 72.225.252.232 was removed from the article:
"Can someone please edit this page?!?  I grew up in Winter Park and I can smell the chamber of commerce all over this intro paragraph. Winter Park is home to some of the most wealthy Floridans there are, and none of its classist roots are identified here."

message: Fundamental to Wikipedia's credibility is the obligation of all articles to be 'stand-alone." That is, articles may not "depend" on another article for it's existence.
To support this, WP:NLIST and WP:LISTPEOPLE were developed. These require that each entry in a list have a citation to tie it to a list. This is perhaps slightly more important in the "Notables" section because well-meaning people often link in notable people who were never associated with Winter Park. This requirement ensures that the list is credible. The official policy of WP:BURDEN underlies both these guidelines.
Normally, the linked biographical article will not have a WP:RS that indicates the person was born in Winter Park, for example, if that is the only tie in.
The requirement ensures, for example, that I cannot state that Jim Morrison lived in Winter Park without a supporting WP:RS. I can mischievously insert this into his biography (uncited, because he most likely did not live in the city). Then link him into the Winter Park article. There are a large number of people in the article now. It would be impossible for an editor attempting to maintain the credibility of the article to read through all biographies to ensure that there is a cited claim in that article. 
However, when I inserted this template by unsubstantiated names, another editor deleted these. Student7 (talk) 01:47, 9 December 2015 (UTC)

thread_title:  anonymous damage? 

message: I propose that the  section be split into a separate page called Winter Park sinkhole. The content of the sinkhole seems to be notable on its own and further expansion of the sinkhole will place undue weight on the history of Winter Park. – The Grid (talk)  22:11, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
