Then cite them in the article when you make the edit. As it is, you changed the numbers but left the the citation to the source for the old numbers in place. Remember that if any unsourced edit is removed, policy states that you cannot add the edit back in without citing a source. -- Donald Albury 02:21, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

I brought in the third source, stated above. Casey14 02:24, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Park Saint Lucie?

Being a PSL resident I have never heard that nickname, or the motto for that matter. Please site them, or I'll remove them. Casey14 15:58, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

I've never heard of these either, though the motto is referred to by the Cities official website. I'm removing the nickname, as I can't find any references to it. -JE 03:17, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for finding the motto. Casey14 17:35, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Climate section needs revision

I removed this statement: "PSL is a hurricane magnet". Don't believe "hurricane magnet" is official weather terminology, and there is no evidence that this particular part of the southeast US coast is hit more often than Miami, Cape Hatteras, New Orleans, Galveston, etc.

The rest of the climate section is similarly unencyclopedic, e. g. "It is also 95 degrees outside". All summer long, at all hours of the day and night? Surely the temperature is sometimes higher or lower. Mean highs and lows for the various seasons would be more appropriate. Unimaginative Username 03:33, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

Agreed. Most of the weather information was just added on recently. The only stuff worth keeping is the tropical status of the city, and the hurricanes that hit the city. Casey14 19:57, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Port St. Lucie Official Seal.jpg

Image:Port St. Lucie Official Seal.jpg 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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
