Coordinate error

[edit]

The coordinates need the following fixes: Bodie Island Lighthouse is near Latitude 35°49'6.51"N Longitude 75°33'49.73"W The existing coordinates (for Google Earth at least) are for the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse.

(Already fixed by now. BrainMarble (talk) 02:20, 20 August 2009 (UTC))[reply]

Requested move

[edit]
The following discussion is an archived discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

Consensus to move. I did not find the nominators argument persuasive. However I found Dicklyon's argument to be so( based on "Recognizability – The title is a name or description of the subject that someone familiar with, although not necessarily an expert in"), while the arguments for keeping it at "Light" seem to be based on sources for specialist/experts rather than generalists, and it is generalist sources with the word "lighthouse" in the title that have been used and cited in the article. -- PBS (talk) 16:23, 31 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Bodie Island LightBodie Island Lighthouse – The current title is confusing. The current title makes it seem that there is light emanating from Bodie Island itself instead of the lighthouse. 3er40 (talk) 22:19, 20 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Nobody has proposed a lowercase generic alternative; I don't think that would be appropriate here. Dicklyon (talk) 16:07, 21 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Removing the insufficient inline citations Template Box.

[edit]

The page has this box at the very beginning : "This article includes a list of references, but its sources remain unclear because it has insufficient inline citations. Please help to improve this article by introducing more precise citations. (January 2014)".

It seems there are currently enough citations to have this box removed, but I am an inexperienced editor so: 1. I don't know how to remove it, and 2. I'm not sure what constitutes "sufficient inline citations" to have it removed.

Thanks for any help, Deadvoodoo (talk) 07:41, 13 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
