Talk:Cape May, New Jersey

message: Removed paragraphs starting "The town long priding itself...", "The period coined...", and "A 500,000 square foot..." due to lack of sources and probable falsification.
The cleansing.jpg is clearly not a real historical document (the EEOC was established in 1965, and telephones became mainstream in the late 1910s).
With this and the NNPOV tone of the text, I believe this text merits deletion. --138.89.249.123 00:37, 15 November 2005 (UTC)

message: "Pleasant," "scenic," and other adjectives in this vein are clearly biased and should not be used in this (or any) Wikipedia article.  There is no definite way to judge whether something is scenic or not without having an opinion on the subject.  It may be difficult, but please try to stay away from this kind of language in the future.
A Google search for the artist "Alice Steer Wilson" turns up 259 hits and none of the sites found seem to be particularly authoritative.  I've been going to Cape May every summer for twenty years and never once heard of her so I've removed the mention of her "scenic" paintings.  If anyone feels that she is an important part of Cape May's culture please feel free to reinsert her name, but try to remain objective.
I am a Cape May Historian and over the last 25 years I have written dozens of articles and columns about Cape May, but I have never heard of Alice Steer Wilson.  That's certainly not to say she isn't important or relevant, but she probably doesn't belong in this article.  Perhaps the entry was someone's sly attempt to sell more paintings by adding a local tie.  - Ben Miller  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Amodernphoenix (talk • contribs) 15:02, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

message: Is Cape May legally considered a town or a city by New Jersey?  The first sentence states that its a town, with a link leading to the legal New Jerset defination of a town, but everything else seems to indicates that its a city... 72.90.134.226 22:17, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It is officially incorporated as a "city," not a "town" or "borough."
Cape May is a city.  However, West Cape May and Cape May Point are boroughs. - Ben Miller  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Amodernphoenix (talk • contribs) 15:05, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Town or City? 

message: I have been tagging a lot of assertions in shore town articles that the seasonal population is over 100,000.  This is particularly dubious for a town as small as Cape May.  Please find a source that clarifies this! -Dmz5*Edits**Talk* 16:02, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

message: Who keeps changing the Climate section? Cape May is clearly the in the Warmest part of the state, and is a solid zone 8a, and has been for the past 15 years. It is a good location for Hardy Palms including Chinese Windmill Palm and Needle Palm. I've seen mature specimens on the Northern Shore of NJ, so they definatley would thrive in Cape May. STOP MAKING CAPE MAY SOUND LIKE IT HAS THE SAME CLIMATE AS NORTHERN MARYLAND, IT DOESNT!  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.36.141.72 (talk) 02:13, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The data contradicts that.  See :Image:NJ jan low temp.svg and :Image:NJ jul high temp.svg.  It is the most mild area in winter, but not the warmest in summer.  --ChrisRuvolo (t) 02:26, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

text: Okay, that may be true. We should mention that it has the warmest winter temperatures in the state. The truth is that,sure hydrangea grows well there, but so do Trachycarpus Fortunei and Needle Palms. We should also add that.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.36.141.72 (talk) 21:51, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

message: Cape May is named for the Dutch sea capatin, who explored and charted area with Adrian Block (of Block Island fame)  in between 1611-1614, after Henry Hudson did in 1609. It was part of the province of New Netherland, but not settled by Dutch. First Europeans were likely from the New England colony of New Haven Colony. see links for more info Djflem (talk) 04:37, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

message: Cape May is famous for its Victorian era architecture, both commercial and residential, but there are very few examples in Wikimedia Commons or in this article.  Someone should upload some photos. --DThomsen8 (talk) 13:04, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

message: It seems appropriate to me to merge the Exit Zero article here;  I don't believe are enough references/notability for it to remain as a separate article.  Narthring (talk  • contribs) 15:18, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: The Exit Zero article might simply be deleted, or perhaps a half sentence from it could be merged here.  Whatever is easier.  Smallbones (talk) 04:06, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
