Talk:Mount Desert Island
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I just removed this link. It looks useful, but it was posted by User:AcadiaMagic, which matches the domain name. Linkspam or not? --SarekOfVulcan 08:00, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
I just removed a couple of links to pictures that didn't exist. Just thought the people here ought to know. - green_meklar 19:58, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] External links
- Ah, added links to a dozen Acadia-area articles. Linkspam it is. Sorry.--SarekOfVulcan 08:08, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] an island?
I looked at a map and it looks connected. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.110.221.182 (talk) 06:37, 28 February 2007 (UTC).
[edit] Sources?
There's a lot of information here, and no sources what so ever (except for the geology). This article is sorely in need of a history scholar of some sort to find secondary sources for all of the claims in this article. Snoop0x7b 20:15, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
- I agree that more references are needed, and the attention of a history scholar. Some information seems quite specific, as if it were drawn from an unreferenced source.
- Scholarship is definitely needed.
- The Google search reference is odd, because it apparently assumes that a large number of quotes make something true. (There are almost as many hits with the same search string, but with "second largest island" subsituted for "third largest island".)
- I'm not sure it makes a difference who the current residents are, except Rockefellers, who had a hand in developing it. Unless they have a hand in changing the island in some way, this smacks of fandom or self-advertising, neither of which belong in Wiki.
