Talk:Key Biscayne, Florida

KB Magazine

I edited the part about KB Magazine being official; it's nothing of the sort. It's an upscale lifestyle magazine loosely based on what is happening in Key Biscayne. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.110.76.38 (talk) 16:57, 6 September 2010 (UTC)

Proposed split

I'm proposing that the material covering the island of Key Biscayne outside of the municipality be moved to an article to be called Key Biscayne (island). After all, the municipality of Key Biscayne covers only about 1/3 of the island. I think it is confusing to mingle the information the way it is now. -- Donald Albury^(Talk) 16:26, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

Has anyone followed up on this, or did it fail? A similar article to look at would be the city of Key West, Florida & the island of Key West. They don't have separate articles and they are different, as the city limits extend beyond the island onto adjacent islands. This is an opposite example, since the city is smaller than the island. In this case I think it's logical to have an article on the island and have the city as part of that article. Or, is it Wik policy to have a separate article on all cities/towns/villages? - Marc Averette 14:32, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

As an afterthought... the island of Key Largo has separate articles from the towns of Tavernier, Florida, Key Largo, Florida and North Key Largo, Florida. Maybe they should be merged as well? There could be redirects for the towns to go to the main Key Largo island article. - Marc Averette 14:36, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

I think it is a good idea to merge the articles suggested. The only problem with merging these is Key Biscayne is at Good Article status, but since Key Biscayne encompasses the town, we should merge this with the island but do so carefully as to not jeapordize its GA status.--Jorfer 17:10, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

I disagree with splitting the articles. Are people really interested in looking at two articles? Why can't there be a separate section on the Village? Miratony (talk) 23:55, 4 August 2021 (UTC)

Make it more clear

I feel like the title should be Key Biscayne (village) instead of what it is now I found it confusing to know what it is whether it’s the village or the island. 06etc (talk) 19:24, 19 April 2019 (UTC)

The current name of this article follows the guidelines at Wikipedia:Naming conventions (geographic names)#Northern America and the Caribbean, United States section. It is the convention in the English-language Wikipedia to name articles about occupied places (settlements) in the United States (with very few exceptions) as "Place, State/Territory". More generally, the names of articles about settlements that need to be disambiguated are done so by using the comma(,) territory name form. i.e., Nassau, Bahamas and Nassau, Delaware, while the names of articles about geographical features that need to be disambiguated use the name of the territory in parentheses (i.e, the island of Nassau, Nassau (Cook Islands). So, if the name has a comma, it is probably about a settlement. - Donald Albury 21:58, 19 April 2019 (UTC)

Media Entry

Added entry for the Key Biscayne Independent with citations to the Institute for Nonprofit News and Guidestar. Also, it is incorrect that the reference to the Islander News states that it is the only publication that focuses on Key Biscayne. Suggest edit. Miratony (talk) 00:20, 5 August 2021 (UTC)

I've removed it - local publications are not inherently notable. Acroterion (talk) 00:25, 5 August 2021 (UTC)
