Talk:Port Aransas, Texas

message: According to the chart, Port A gets avg 32 inches of rain per year.  That qualifies as semiarid?  The semiarid article states 10-20 inches per year.

message: The article lists 3 terminals for cargo containers. So what about the Turning Basin terminal? Is this saying that this site does not handle the cargo containers (I honestly don't know the details)? Regardless the way it is written it seems to imply that these are the only terminals which is, of course, not correct.

replies: text: I agree. I'm in the midst of a research project on different elements of this stuff, so I would volunteer to clean this up a bit. For what it's worth, the source for these two quotes appears to be from the back-matter of two of Cope's books, Experiments in Musical Intelligence (for the Hofstadter quote), and Virtual Music (for the Kurzweil quote). I do not, unfortunately, own the former book, and there's no way to confirm on Amazon or Google Books (I think) that the back-matter attribution is correct for Hofstadter. Both of these quotes are reproduced on Cope's web page, but I think we have very little reason to imagine that they are fabricated. I wouldn't question their reliability in this case, so much as their relevance to such a short article. ☾ Luna (talk) 11:30, 29 April 2013 (UTC)

message: I've just removed most of the lists from this page. My reasoning is because Wikipedia isn't IMDb, they were all unreferenced and, primarily, because they were very confusing (because he was mostly director/producer/exec on all of his self-penned shows, with very specific instances when he wasn't). If anybody objects, the previous edit is available here. However, I would recommend that these should at least be made into prose or something - really, this wants to be a biography more than a list.

message: I'm pulling this entry:  "Population reached 4,877 by 1998, and is expected to top 10,000 by the year 2013 at present growth rates."
First, 1998 is not an official US Census year; only the decadal census is appropriate for encyclopedic use, unless a published peer-reviewed demographic article is found and cited.  Second, the ten year growth rate is from 4,167 to 4,426, a difference of 259 or 5.8%.  There is no way the 2011-2013 growth rate will be at 55.7% (from 4,426 to 10,000).

thread_title:  back and forth 

message: This wikipedia article got B grade for US and Texas projects. Can we get some help improving it?
I strongly believe, summarizing/minimizing some of the following topics can help making this article better
# Branch, Texas annexation - 99% of this information should be part of Branch, Texas or Collin County or Texas - not Princeton
# Home Rule topic - does not belong to this article
# 2012 (old) Fitch rating - not much value to 99% of the readers of this article
Adding/updating other topics like neighborhoods, parks/recreation, trails, flora/fauna, climate, demographics, pictures (old/current), notable people, sports, law/government (city, county, state, federal), transportation, places of interest, economy etc., can help improving the article as well. One way I think - what information will a tourist be interested while visiting this place for 2 hours/days/weeks/months/years.
Some of my edits in these lines have been reverted by BranchHistory, I am reluctant to contribute to this article as I believe, my edits will be reverted again (wasting my time/effort) by the same user. As I am not local to the area, I need to do my research to edit this article and it takes time/effort. Pinecar (talk) 17:20, 4 August 2021 (UTC)

message: He was born in 1939, in Ceylon.  He migrated to Australia in 1948, at age 9.  In 1972, no less than 24 years after he migrated, his old country Ceylon changed its name to Sri Lanka.  Why is it appropriate to say that he was born in Sri Lanka rather than Ceylon?   What if Sri Lanka were to have another name change (to "Serendib", say) - would we then say that Prof de Kretser was born in Serendib?  That seems a little absurd to me.

True, Flint is considered “disgraced” in some people’s eyes through his former involvement as head of the ABA/ACMA, but he was speaking here purely in his capacity as convenor of Australians for Constitutional Monarchy, a completely different hat, and one that he still wears.

message: This page is a mere dictionary definition (something which Wikipedia is not).  It explains only the meaning and origins of a word.  I can't find any encyclopedic content on this page.  The definitions belong over in Wiktionary where folks with the right skills, interests and lexical tools can more easily sort out the meanings and origins.
Options to fix the page here include:
# Expand the page with encyclopedic content - that is, content that goes well beyond the merely lexical.
# Redirect the page to a more general page on the appropriate sub-genre of slang.
# Replace the current contents with a soft-redirect to Wiktionary (usually done using the  template).
