The second paragraph is a little hard to read, and has a few grammatical errors. Could the author take a look at it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zenotek (talk • contribs) 13:58, 27 June 2008

Could someone with the technical ability please edit the title of the article to remove the capital 'Q'? The correct spelling (per inventor Ihnatko's seminal article (see links) does not use a capital letter. I have made the change in the text but cannot do so for the title. Thanks! 97.120.79.159 (talk) 04:57, 9 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

With respect, you're absolutely wrong. Go look at the article you're talking about in the links. Ihnatko uses capital Q's. 174.25.148.186 (talk) 00:07, 9 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Shouldn't the capitalization of the title and the text of this article at least be consistent? I have no opinion on which is correct, but the title is currently MacQuarium and all uses in the article are Macquarium. Bunnyhugger (talk) 06:52, 18 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

MacQuarium → Macquarium – All reliable secondary sources use the lowercase "Macquarium" rather than "MacQuarium" so this article should be moved appropriately. Elizium23 (talk) 19:18, 6 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There are eight entries in the "External links". Three seems to be an acceptable number and of course, everyone has their favorite to add for four. The problem is that none is needed for article promotion.
  • ELpoints #3) states: Links in the "External links" section should be kept to a minimum. A lack of external links or a small number of external links is not a reason to add external links.
  • LINKFARM states: There is nothing wrong with adding one or more useful content-relevant links to the external links section of an article; however, excessive lists can dwarf articles and detract from the purpose of Wikipedia. On articles about topics with many fansites, for example, including a link to one major fansite may be appropriate.
  • WP:ELMIN: Minimize the number of links.
  • WP:ELCITE: ...access dates are not appropriate in the external links section. Do not use {{cite web}} or other citation templates in the External links section. Citation templates are permitted in the Further reading section. -- Otr500 (talk) 22:37, 8 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Agree that these links should be kept to a reasonable minimum. However, I brought back the Andy Ihnatko link; he's quite well known/established in "Apple circles" due to his long tech journalism career at the Chicago Sun-Times (almost a "minor celebrity", though not to the extent of guys like Gruber or Arment), so I think the link has value here.
