  • Object, see Ann Arbor, Michigan for a good article of this type, history is long and there are too many lists.--nixie 02:48, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Object. No references, which is a requirement for articles to be featured. Also, Image:Miami sunset.jpg has no copyright tags (which can be an issue with others) and Image:Metro cc.jpg is marked as copyrighted without fair use (articles must have GFDL-licensed images unless there is no choice. I believe someone can take a picture of the Miami Metro instead). Pentawing 03:35, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
    • Pentawing, the article must have GFDL-compatible licences, not necessarily GFDL-licensed ones. User:Nichalp/sg 05:40, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
      • Point taken. Thanks for the clarification. Pentawing 07:16, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Object:
    1. The images Image:Miamiflag.jpg and Image:Miamiseal.JPG are tagged as public domain, but there's no evidence that this is the case.
    2. The image Image:Miami sunset.jpg has no source or copyright information. In case you missed the announcement, that's grounds for speedy deletion these days.
    3. The image Image:Metro cc.jpg is tagged as {{CopyrightedFreeUseProvided}}, but no conditions are specified in the tag, indicating that the tag is probably incorrect. This needs to be cleared up.

  • Object – as nixie says, model the article as per Ann Arbor which is well written and balanced. User:Nichalp/sg 05:24, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
