message: I don't want to get into an editing war, but Broward and Miami-Dade Counties should be Broward and Miami-Dade counties. County is capitalized when it is the name of one county. Broward County, Miami-Dade County, etc but when they are strung together, it is not capitalized, e.g. Broward and Miami-Dade counties. The same rule covers things such as streets, e.g., First Street, Second Street, etc., when combined become First and Second streets.

message: Dear fellow contributors
MOSNUM no longer encourages date autoformatting, having evolved over the past year or so from the mandatory to the optional after much discussion there and elsewhere of the disadvantages of the system. Related to this, MOSNUM prescribes rules for the raw formatting, irrespective of whether or not dates are autoformatted. MOSLINK and CONTEXT are consistent with this. 
There are at least six disadvantages in using date-autoformatting, which I've capped here:
Removal has generally been met with positive responses by editors. I'm seeking feedback about this proposal to remove it from the main text (using a script) in about a week's time on a trial basis/ The original input formatting would be seen by all WPians, not just the huge number of visitors; it would be plain, unobtrusive text, which would give greater prominence to the high-value links.

replies: text: Go ahead, Tony. You can do this to all of my FAs. Although I see you did it to Restoration of the Everglades and it was reverted soon after. Not sure if you're watching how these stick, or how much agreement there is about the changes. --Moni3 (talk) 12:14, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

message: Maybe I am being extremely dense, but is a reference section on this article missing?  I can't find anything that gives the full details of what the Grunwald/Douglas etc listed in the notes section are. --Slp1 (talk) 16:16, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm sorry. I don't get what you're asking. Can you clarify, please? --Moni3 (talk) 16:21, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Grunwald gets mentioned in the notes section with page numbers etc, but there is no reference section mentioning the title, publisher, date of publication etc.  I just checked the FA version and a reference section under the notes was there then.  Maybe it got deleted sometime by mistake? --Slp1 (talk) 16:24, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Okay, this is too weird.  Half the time I load the article, the reference section and the external links section are missing and half the time they are there.  Must be something wrong at my end I guess. Sorry for bothering you!! Great article.--Slp1 (talk) 16:27, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Check the References section, where all print materials from which multiple citations are used, are listed. --Moni3 (talk) 16:28, 23 February 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: Douglas herself may have chided you for wanting a 103-year-old woman to be physically appealing. Although there are photographs of Douglas, image rights keep them from being freely used on Wikipedia. Friends of the Everglades allowed this image to be used. Otherwise, I do not know who owns other images of Douglas, and therefore permissions to use them would be problematic. --Moni3 (talk) 17:51, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  such a great article 

message: I got smitten decades ago by "River of Grass" and then by the mind and perspective and knowledge deeply-rooted-in-everglades background of a person who could write such a book, and her quest that it stemmed  from.  
Thanks to the editors for creating this.  And yes, the picture has numerous severe photography problems.  The side view combined with severe shadows combined with parts of her face glared out.   Nothing to do with her being "appealing" or not appealing. Thanks again to the editors.

message: According to the article Douglas was the last name of her con-artist ex-husband with whom she was married only a year. I don't understand why then is Douglas associated with her name? Did she identified herself as "Stoneman Douglas"? Thinker78 (talk) 00:27, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
