thread_title: Map Removed

message: When I visited Acadia I saw bright pink cliffs. What makes them so pink? What are they made of? —Keenan Pepper 00:13, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: My guess would be pink granite, but that's just a guess. –BMRR (talk) 00:18, 2 February 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Pink cliffs 

message: Would a volunteer please review www.acadiamagic.com for consideration as an external link? This is a comprehensive resource guide for Acadia National Park as well as the surrounding communities such as Bar Harbor, Maine. The map is an invaluable navigational tool that enables one to explore the park, the many scenic sights, and the villages simply by clicking actual map locations. The photography is often stunning as well.
To respond to the question about why the cliffs looked so pink in Acadia National Park - It is pink granite. It appears even more pink at sunrise or near sunset when the color temperature of the light shifts toward the red, adding an additional warm glow. AcadiaMagic 04:53, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Suggested Resource for External Link 

message: When AcadiaMagic questioned my removal of his link, he pointed out that a lot of similar links were not touched. Since he had a point, I checked them, and wasn't convinced they added enough value to keep. If you disagree, please explain why. Thanks.--SarekOfVulcan 21:22, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Removed links 

message: For a reasonably important topic (Maines only national park), this article is very short. I placed the expand template at the top of this article to try to prompt editors to add in more valid information. Anyone with knowledge on this national park should expand the article, and consider adding more references, pictures, or (a few) external links. Immunize (talk) 00:14, 2 February 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Article requires major expansion 

message: At the moment, the gallery has 22 photos. I have just removed four of them as being repetitive and/or non-informative. As WP:gallery, the wikipedia standard for galleries, notes: "Wikipedia is not an image repository. A gallery is not a tool to shoehorn images into an article, and a gallery consisting of an indiscriminate collection of images of the article subject should generally either be improved in accordance with the above paragraph or moved to Wikimedia Commons." I will probably remove more. - DavidWBrooks (talk) 01:03, 10 June 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  WAY too many pictures 

message: Would it make sense to include an expanded Notable Features section, which could include parts of the park like:
* The Bubbles and Bubble Rock
* Bar Island
* Cadillac Mountain
* Otter Cliffs
* Thunder Hole
Just seems a bit lacking, no? --FeldBum (talk) 01:35, 2 September 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: I have removed a few pictures of animals that do not reflect anything specific to Acadia, including a skeleton of a mammoth from another part of the country. This article is LOADED with photos, many of them acting as decoration at least as much as adding information - pictures increase download times for people reading wikipedia in places with slow internet. We shouldn't have pictures unless they really contribute to a reader's understanding; showing a picture of various amphibians and animals that live here - pictures which can be seen at the article of those animals - doesn't meet that standard, I don't think. - DavidWBrooks (talk) 14:25, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
