Talk:Geography of Texas

Fix'd
I'm not sure why the comment about Austin being further south than Tallahassee and Honolulu was in there, but I'm assuming the author was trying to compare latitudes of state capitals. In any case, the statement is false, as Honolulu is much further south than Austin. So, I changed it to say that Austin is further south than all US state capitals except Honolulu. --LoveCowboy2024
 * That was my false info, THNX But it is only 3deg farther south than austin. :)   Jo  e  I  11:17, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

Search
Can someone search Geography of Texas on wikipedia, and see how many kb this article is? For some reason it won't find it. IU get moscow, texas as #1 hit. Jo e  I  09:52, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
 * The Yahoo! search engine says the article is 66k. -JCarriker 21:41, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Oh, I didn't think about doin it on yahoo...Thnx :) Longer than I thought   Jo  e  I  08:16, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
 * You're welcome. -JCarriker 08:53, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

Good article
Article is currently on hold for the following reasons:
 * A citation is required for the second sentence in the lead. ("Occuping about 7 percent of the total water and land area of the U.S., it is the second largest state after Alaska, and is the southernmost part of the Great Plains, which ends in the south against the folded Sierra Madre Oriental of Mexico." — 7% requires a citation.)


 * Should one reference both references for the total land area of Texas and the USA ? -- Greenwarr (talk) 09:56, 3 March 2013 (UTC);


 * I don't know about using [17] on the heading #Resources, as it goes against WP:MOSHEAD.
 * Other than this, I don't see what's stoppping it. Iola k ana |T  18:50, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
 * The ref has been added. I left a message on Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style (headings), because I couldn't find out how just by reading that.  The only way I can figure is to remove the ref tag and place a footnote at the bottom...Oh wait, I'll try just moving the ref to the bottom of the section...   Jo  e  I  02:36, 2 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Hows that work for ya?  Jo  e  I  02:38, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Seems fine now. Iola k ana |T  18:41, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

Merging climate page
Looking at both pages, they seem rather short, and redundant. They both are short, and they both have regional paragraphs that don't all together seem complete. Maybe a merge could make a single better article. Oldag07 (talk) 05:00, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I think both articles are sufficient to stand on their own. Geography and climate are linked to one another, but should be seen as different.  And it looks like most states are working on a climate page, Category:Climate of the United States by state.   Joe   I  06:27, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I agree with the separate page idea. If you are worried about too much overlap, the climate section of the geography page could be shortened.  Thegreatdr (talk) 15:26, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
