Historical picture opposite external links[edit]

http://www.uscg.mil/hq/g-cp/history/WEBLIGHTHOUSES/pointauxbarques.JPG Anybody want to put this in? 7&6=thirteen (talk) 18:46, 12 June 2008 (UTC) Stan[reply]

I might be able to get around to that ;)Asher196 (talk) 18:50, 12 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. It fills up that empty space in the article very nicely, I think. 7&6=thirteen (talk) 18:58, 12 June 2008 (UTC) Stan[reply]

Merger proposal[edit]

Same lighthouse. No functional reason for two articles. I think merger is warranted, even required. 01:31, 28 June 2008 (UTC) Stan

Article name[edit]

Is there another Pointe aux Barques Lighthouse that we need to add "Michigan" to the article name? Asher196 (talk) 00:08, 9 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have no clue. I just did it to make merging/redirecting easier. It probably can be moved back to the original name but DGG has more experience in that area. I don't think any issue will arise but he on GMT so he may be asleep. spryde | talk 00:11, 9 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I moved to the old name. The USCG refers to the lighthouse as POINTE AUX BARQUES LIGHT. Asher196 (talk) 00:16, 9 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I cleaned up the trail of redirects. We should be good now. Happy editing, neighbor. spryde | talk 00:17, 9 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for all your work. I had no idea how to merge articles. Asher196 (talk) 00:18, 9 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Map[edit]

The map is missing some Great Lakes -- Huron would be beneficial. 173.90.75.20 (talk) 02:22, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

External links[edit]

There were twelve 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.
WP:ELBURDEN: Disputed links should be excluded by default unless and until there is a consensus to include them -- Otr500 (talk) 16:54, 13 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
