10 Islands?

[edit]

The article for The Great Salt Lake gives the number of (named) islands as 11, whereas this article gives 10. --HungryRobot 07:20, 1 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

13 if you count black rock and white rock[1]. BTW, this article doesn't cite its sources, can we dig some up? Also, can we find a source that actually states that "The Great Salt Lake", as opposed to just "Great Salt Lake" is an actual name? I removed the name (which I had added) from GSL's article because I couldn't find one, although I always thought it was the name until I started reading more about it. --Lethargy 07:41, 12 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Square miles to square kilometers

[edit]

42 Square miles = 108 km2, not 68 as stated. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.114.237.18 (talk) 23:29, 2 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I fixed this mistake. Scottk (talk) 02:46, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Broken links?

[edit]

The link to the map and the link to the state park site are both broken. I didn't want to modify the page because I don't know whether they're permanently gone or if the site is down temporarily. If they continue to be down in the future, we ought to remove them or find new maps someplace. Please forgive me for any poor protocol. I'm still learning. Mike 06:12, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I found the pages at a new address on the same site and updated the page. It all links through correctly now. Mike 06:22, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
[edit]

The third and fifth external links are broken. 76.123.208.229 (talk) 12:21, 2 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Dumb looking "7 miles causeway"...

[edit]

I didn't want Falcon8765 to hide from the foolishness. Here is the post he/she made on my "talk" page, and my response:

Miles are indeed appended with an 's' when there are multiple Falcon8765 (talk) 18:32, 9 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Sure, Pal. But, who speaks like that? Who writes like that? Change it back if you want. You have the power. But, you will just look dumb. 72.93.176.118 (talk) 18:39, 9 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
He/she reverted my fix. I won't revert it back because those who constantly monitor a page have superior powers regardless of merit. Wikipedia is not a meritocracy. It's an "analcracy". I'll just change IP address and move on. Bye. 72.93.176.118 (talk) 18:53, 9 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No longer an island?

[edit]

I haven't been there for a few years, but when I look at satellite images, it appears to have connected with the mainland as Salt Lake has receded. Is that worth noting here? It is true? CsikosLo (talk) 17:10, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The isthmus is sometimes submerged, sometimes exposed, according to the seasons and years. All is normal. — Quicksilver (Hydrargyrum)T @ 00:11, 4 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The lake is at its lowest point in recorded history—normal? (Walker Snarling) (talk) 03:31, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
