List of Florida state parks

 * Nominator(s): Mgrē@sŏn  ( Talk ) 13:42, 12 July 2013 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because...Florida has such a wonderful state park system, and many parks are under utilized. Featured lists are viewed by more people, and I want everyone to know about these Florida gems. Mgrē@sŏn ( Talk ) 13:42, 12 July 2013 (UTC)

Comments
 * I don't think the parks listed twice with blank entries except for remarks saying "see XX State Park" should be included. Just use the official park name.
 * --commented out original park names Mgrē@sŏn  ( Talk ) 15:52, 17 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Check for consistency in the remarks section - the first word should always be in caps.
 * --capitalized first word of comments where needed Mgrē@sŏn  ( Talk ) 15:52, 17 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Convert all units in the remarks as well, including temperatures, million gallons, etc. They should be imperial units first, metric second.
 * --changed Mgrē@sŏn  ( Talk ) 14:22, 30 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Stats such as "5,100 acre plantation" where the unit of measure is singular should be displayed as "5,100-acre plantation" using adj=on.
 * --changed Mgrē@sŏn  ( Talk ) 14:22, 30 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Link to specific species and other features mentioned in the remarks.

 * References are needed for everything in each park's remarks.
 * All images should have alternative text.

 * There is a column of white space below the map, please fix the formatting so the text will wrap.
 * "There are 161" is meaningless; the source should be moved to after "Florida" to cite the actual fact.
 * -> "and it won the Gold Medal, ->"it was also a'' finalist"
 * The sentence starting with "Many parks offer" is rather awkward, especially the third clause, and should be rewritten.
 * No quotation marks around conservation areas and historical/archaeological sites, which should be lowercase
 * "Left mouse click..." is unnecessary; it doesn't need to be pointed out that pictures can't be sorted.
 * "Water body" -> Body of Water. "Bodys" is not the plural form...just the singular is fine.
 * Lowercase manatee.
 * -> Florida cracker
 * Great work on the table.
