7. Overall:

   a Pass/Fail:

I've put this article on hold for the following reasons: 1) The lead (first two paragraphs) is slightly disorganized; the main ideas should be more clearly stated in the beginning, followed by slightly more specific information. 2) A bibliography, in addition to inline citations, would improve the article. It is not hard; simply find which inline citation is applicable to the entire article (or most of it), and add that to the bibliography. 3) The rationale for Image:MiamiRiverMap.gif as "promotional" doesn't sound quite right; you can re-draw the map yourself or find one that is under a free license / in the public domain.
