Sea World is an animal sanctuary. Therefore, animal photos are appropriate for the article. I have returned 3 of the Sea World animal photos. The intention is to show wildlife being kept at Sea World - two of photos being of Australian wildlife. The three reinstated photos actually show what part of Sea World looks like - which the two photos which were left on, did not (one photo showed the entrance to Sea World and human beings - while the other photo showed a poster picture of two Canadian polar bear cubs - neither of the two photos depicted Australian wildlife). Two of the three reinstated photos do show Australian wildlife, which is what Sea World is all about. Please leave these photos on the article. Figaro 15:14, 28 December 2005 (UTC)


Ok fair enough. If you use this page as a reference before I removed the pictures, the article seemed very cluttered as well as the fact there was 2 pictures exactly the same (with one being a bit bigger- Ping Ping I am refering to).

Maybe it is just the browser I am using- (Mozilla Firefox)? Because on the current article there is pictures and text overlapping at the bottom. Let me know if this is with your browser as well.

But anyway, the article looks better now. The reason I took the whole lot of pictures away is because it was a short article and I believe that the number of pictures should be in proportion to the length of the article.

Maybe a table of pictures showing the various animals at the park would neaten it up a little?

Deleted section on polar bears' names and histories

Latest comment: 18 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I've deleted this block of text, for now:

Sea World also has Polar bears at "Polar Bear Shores". The original polar bears were "Ping Ping" (a male polar bear who was on loan to Sea World from Beijing Zoo, China), and "Kanook" (a female polar bear who had been brought to Sea World from Tucson, Arizona, United States. "Kanook" later unfortunately died after suffering a long illness – following which Beijing Zoo took "Ping Ping" back again). At present (2006), there are four polar bears at "Polar Bear Shores" — twin polar bears ("Lia" and "Lutik") from St. Petersburg, Russia ("Lutik" has now been sent to Alaska - where there is a mate for him - as part of an international breeding campaign). There are also twin orphan polar bear cubs ("Hudson" and "Nelson") from Northern-Quebec, Canada (Australia was originally only to get one of the Canadian twin bear cubs, with the other twin going to Japan, but the twins have a very strong sibling bond and could not be separated because of this, so Australia was able to keep both "Hudson" and "Nelson" at Sea World).

My reasons are:

  • This level of detail is far greater than the rest of this article
  • The section is difficult to follow - too much in parentheses, too much self-contradiction
  • I'm not sure whether this information is encyclopedic (comments welcome!)
  • An up-to-date version of this information is readily available at the official Sea World site, at http://www.seaworld.com.au/polarbears/polarbears_details.cfm?polarbear_id=2

Deleted Ferris wheel reference

Latest comment: 18 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

After one week, there has been no response to the request for a citation to support the claim that a Ferris wheel is planned for this year. I can't find anything through Google, and a search for "ferris" at the official website yields no results. Therefore I have deleted this claim. Adrian J. Hunter 14:30, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

This article is about Sea World (a marine park in Australia). Obviously the above comment was intended for the SeaWorld discussion page (which is about the United States marine park). Figaro 10:28, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
I have just copied the comment by 70.157.212.170 onto the SeaWorld talk page. Figaro 09:27, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Sea World Logo.gif

Latest comment: 16 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion
 

Image:Sea World Logo.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

-- Kracken??

Kracken doesn't exist at Seaworld, Australia! That's the coaster in Sea World, Orlando, FL. USA.

File:New-cubs-on-the-block.jpg Nominated for speedy Deletion

Latest comment: 13 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion
 

An image used in this article, File:New-cubs-on-the-block.jpg, has been nominated for speedy deletion for the following reason: Wikipedia files with no non-free use rationale as of 21 September 2011

What should I do?

Don't panic; you should have time to contest the deletion (although please review deletion guidelines before doing so). The best way to contest this form of deletion is by posting on the image talk page.

  • If the image is non-free then you may need to provide a fair use rationale
  • If the image isn't freely licensed and there is no fair use rationale, then it cannot be uploaded or used.
  • If the image has already been deleted you may want to try Deletion Review
