Maintenance including empty sections

Latest comment: 10 months ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Removed an enormous amount of empty sections and subsections that included, Bathymetry, Alien invasive species, Seaweeds, Threats, Activities requiring a permit, Geography, Hydrography, Geology, Budget, Funding, Law enforcement, Prohibited activities, Named dive sites, Climate, Seasonal variations in sea conditions, Marine species diversity, and Threats.

While the "expand section" maintenance tag has an acceptable use there does not need to be an abundance of empty sections and certainly no subsections. The MOS provides for a general layout but it is not specific and the names or order can be changed by an editor working on the article.

Also removed the "Slipways and harbours in the MPA" that only had the content "There are no slipways or harbours in the MPA." Moved "Climate of South Africa" section to the "See also" section and remove empty section. Moved map to remove the blank area. -- Otr500 (talk) 14:03, 5 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

No big deal, they can be replaced if and when there are more sources available. The layout was standardised for MPAs of South Africa, but this is a small one. Cheers. · · · Peter Southwood ^(talk): 11:25, 30 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Should this page be the Robberg Nature Reserve and Marine Protected Area?

Hello, it seems prudent to have both on one page (or maybe not) as seen on the sign here:

as Robberg Nature Reserve redirects here too,
