History
[edit]Why is the naming of the island in Geology and not History? Naysie 00:23, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
Transport
[edit]The transport details have been restored. This provides a valuable summary and reference to transport options to the island, the source information being hard to understand, like much content on Wikipedia. Sometimes its necessary to use timetable format to explain the movement patterns of shipping. They change over time, also like much content on Wikipedia. Will be updated and made more concise.
- to User:Nick-D "Wikipedia is not a timetable service, and that's undated and unsourced". Its sourced from the operators (external link), and dated from the change log. Please dont go deleting slabs of content from articles unless you wrote it yourself or it is untrue/vandalism etc. Instead: update it or make the corrections yourself, just as others have gone to the effort of doing so, or leave a comment for the other contributors to make the changes when they have time (there is life outside Wikipedia), or just stick to the topics you know yourself. --Advanstra (talk) 03:21, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
- Sorry Advanstra, Nick-D was perfectly correct in removing the transport details. This content was not encyclopedic - it did not add any knowledge about Moreton Island. Rather it was "how to" information, that is how to get to the island, by which barge/ferry, how much and when. That belongs in a travel guide and not here. - Shiftchange (talk) 06:14, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
Photograph
[edit]There is a photograph added to the article, SandsOfTime2fla401.jpg, with a caption, "Large sand cliff showing sand rivers running" What in the world is a sand river and how is it running? I've found some rivers named "Sand River" and even one in Buckland TAS, Australia, but nothing on the Island of Moreton. I would love to learn a ton more. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:84:C602:1450:F572:4C65:644F:ADC6 (talk) 00:23, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
