Maritime history of Florida[edit]

I'm making the nomination for Wikiproject Florida, this article came out of nowhere a month ago, created by User:High Plains Drifter and seeing that the article was very good, Wikiproject Florida decided to Peer Review it, and met their concerns here. It's a excellent written article, and the only problem is with footnotes. Thanks --Jaranda wat's sup 22:49, 28 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support. Article looks good, but I'm not sure if inline notes are needed for current FACs. BlueShirts 02:09, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Yes they are; they are a part of requirement 2 (c) of the FA criteria. AndyZ 16:47, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Object. I think this is the sort of subject that needs the inline refs and notes. Also, the image at the top is lovely but does it necessarily say "Maritime history of Florida" to put a satellite image there? The ideal thing would be some sort of historical map of the state, perferably one made for navigational purposes. If you could get it. Daniel Case 06:07, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Object. No historiography section in an article claiming to be a history. 2 b comprehensiveness. Fifelfoo 09:08, 31 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Object there are no inline refs at all and the refs at the end are not tied to the text at all.Rlevse 20:09, 31 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I also would prefer if there were inline references. --Tetraminoe 18:31, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
