message: Hi! The external links look like they might need tidying up a bit, to me at least, per links to be avoided. There's one to the local Boy Scout's troop, a high school, and a university, yet none of these are mentioned in the article itself and seem only indirectly related (based on geographical location). Maybe a section on 'educational institutions' could be added and then the links would be directly related? ColdmachineTalk 16:34, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

If an admin or higher up could let me know if these changes would be good and not braking any rules that would be grate.

replies: text: Those sites look alright to add, I think. The Bar Harbor Historical Society is definitely ok. VisitMaine and Discover-Acadia are a bit iffy, since they're commercial sites, but if there's information you can source to them that isn't easily accessible elsewhere, it shouldn't be a problem. AcadiaNationalPark.com, I would object to because the URL makes it sound like that's the official site. --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 16:48, 4 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: The guidance at WP:NOTTRAVEL, para. 2, would apply.  I believe this nixes much of your "cool info" list. Hertz1888 (talk) 17:05, 4 December 2009 (UTC)

message: What's the reason/justification for naming several hotels in Bar Harbor? There are others and this just seems like free advertising. At least the ice cream/candy shop mentioned in the preceding paragraph has the "iconic" lobster ice cream & lobster statue out front.  Eulenspiegel23 (talk) 02:30, 30 July 2023 (UTC)
