wish it would mention the hardships of founding and keeping the city alive, and the burning of the capital building, how the 1st burned to the ground, and how hard it was to build such a building in the 1930's. I wish it would describe Bismarck today but then again that should be in the culture section.) As you scroll down you see ugly pictures that are sparingly used and a wreck that is supposed to be describing the climate of Bismarck
I'm sorry, but this is what would be called "unencyclopedic" here. We don't want emotive descriptions of places. We want neutral ones - see WP:NPOV - as if written by someone who neither likes nor dislikes the place. Imagine Bismarck as a city in Siberia you have no interest in. You have no opinion about its culture or its climate, or how hard anyone might have worked to build it. Write about it from that viewpoint.
