Requesting help updating Miami Herbert infobox and Rankings section

Hello! I'm a University of Miami employee looking to improve the business school's article. I have placed an edit request on the Miami Herbert Talk page that contains up-to-date enrollment and staff figures as well as the school's more recent standing in a few academic rankings. I'm looking for an independent editor to review my request and thought this WikiProject might be a good place to find one. To review my request, you may follow this link to the Miami Herbert Talk page. Thanks! MT for University of Miami (talk) 15:44, 18 March 2026 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Destubathon of the Americas

Project members are invited to participate in the Destubathon of the Americas, a contest/editathon which will run from May 1 to May 31. The goal is to destub as many of our 475,000+ stubs for the Americas (from Alaska down to Chile) as possible. A good chance to have fun in expanding many of our old stale stubs and win up to $2680 in Amazon vouchers for expanding stub articles. Sign up in the Contestants/participants section on the contest page if interested. Even if not interested in prizes you are still warmly welcome to participate in it as an editathon! Hopefully we can achieve something significant in the month of May together! ♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:06, 14 April 2026 (UTC)

Purple Blob

This map of Florida, with the Panhandle in red, also has an unidentified purple blob. Does that blob actually signify anything? DS (talk) 17:54, 30 April 2026 (UTC)

Do you mean Lake Okeechobee? It looks blue to me. Donald Albury 18:39, 30 April 2026 (UTC)

Apparently I do, yes. I might call the color 'lavender', and I might argue with the person who made the image re: their color choices, but they've been inactive since 2013. Thanks. DS (talk) 18:48, 30 April 2026 (UTC)

It looks like they picked File:Map of Florida highlighting blank.jpeg from Commons and colored in the panhandle counties. Donald Albury 19:10, 30 April 2026 (UTC)

The maps look they were created in 2009, in time for the 2010 census. Are you wanting an update to the image? – The Grid (talk) 13:56, 8 May 2026 (UTC)
