Talk:Gasparilla Pirate Festival

Thanks
@Viriditas It's always helpful to work with a good editor when you're very close to the subject, and the article is noticeably tighter due to our collaboration. A tip o' me pirate hat to you!

One minor quibble - you removed a sentence from the tail end of the first paragraph in the controversy section because it didn't include a citation. That was actually the transition sentence introducing the main topic of the section, so the mentioned controversy is explained and cited over the next several paragraphs. I'll tweak the wording to make it a little more clear.

Also, I'll take a look at your further suggestions next week, as I also plan on getting some good pics during the parade and adding a subsection on floats. Hopefully I'll get it done before next year's festivities lol.

 * Thank you. Don't forget to submit a DYK hook so that more people can read the article.  If you need help, let me know. Viriditas (talk) 19:32, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
 * I've never actually done a DYK nomination in all my years as a Wikieditor and I'm not sure that I did it correctly. The link to the discussion below works, but I don't see it on the list of nominations under review. Any idea what's going on? Zeng8r (talk) 20:58, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
 * I will take a look. Viriditas (talk) 21:02, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I can fix it for you. In the future, install User:SD0001/DYK-helper. Viriditas (talk) 21:06, 23 January 2024 (UTC)

I fixed it by adding the template manually, fixing the link, and cutting down the caption. You're going to need to choose another image because the image you want doesn't display well at the resolution and they probably won't use it. Consider experimenting with different images until you find one that looks good at the smaller resolution. Viriditas (talk) 21:21, 23 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Also get rid of that "leading citizens" bit, as that will confuse the reviewer. Consider replacing it with just citizens, residents, or "leaders in the community" or something.  Or you could leave it as it is and see how it goes. Viriditas (talk) 21:23, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
