Frank Sinatra as most notable act?
What makes Frank Sinatra the "most notable" act appearing at Caesars Palace?  Is there a famous or pop culture link (that I am not aware of) between Frank Sinatra and Caesars Palace that makes this an objective analysis?- -HobbesLeviathan (talk) 00:53, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Ten Billion Dollars?  In 1962?  Who wrote this nonsense?
A trillion dollars?  The entire GDP of the USA in 2006 was 13 trillion.  Can someone fix this stupidity?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.195.255.172 (talk) 20:12, 24 October 2007 (UTC) 
That would be vandalism; I reverted it 75.166.54.155 01:48, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

why isn't it Caesar's Palace?   Or even Caesars' Palace, if referring to all of the Caesars?   Why no apostrophe? Saccerzd 12:05, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
edit:  I'v ejust read in the article that "it is called caesars and not caesar's because every guest is a caesar".  Surely, then, it should have been called caesars' palace? Saccerzd 12:06, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
the first picture is a shot of Caesars Augustus Tower, but the foreground is Bellagio, next door and accross Flamingo Road.  It could be misleading.

Image:Caesarslogo.gif 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 Wikipedia articles 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 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.

I again reverted the contested, unsourced, pov statements. In my opinion, a {{fact}} is not enough here because the statements made in the edit have not only been contested and are unsourced, but by consensus felt to be a non-neutral pov in this and other articles previously. Also, please note that the source that was provided in a recent edit have nothing to do with the critical opinion(s) it was attached to. --SesameballTalk 20:07, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

I presume that the article deliberately spells the name without an apostrophe. Shouldn't this be mentioned in the article's text? Was this an accident by the Palace's original builder/owner? Axl ¤ [Talk] 18:32, 12 April 2013 (UTC)

Yes, it's deliberate. According to this webpage, the developer of Caesars Palace, Jay Sarno, "wanted everyone who was a guest in his hotel to feel like a Caesar, which is why there is no apostrophe in Caesars Palace. It is a palace filled with Caesars, not the palace of one Caesar." I leave it to others to decide whether it's worth mentioning in the article. DH85868993 (talk) 00:44, 13 April 2013 (UTC)
Thank you for the explanation. In which case, they should have put an apostrophe after the "S". Anyway, I think that it is worth mentioning in the article. Axl ¤ [Talk] 00:51, 13 April 2013 (UTC)

I noticed that the article states in a couple of places that the Augustus Tower was renamed in 2015 to the Laurel Collection Tower. It does not cite a source, and, as far as I can tell, is incorrect: the Augustus and Octavius Towers together form the Laurel Collection, and represent Caesars boutique presence on the property. (In previous years, anecdotally, they've been deemphasizing the brand.) Regardless, the Augustus Tower is still named the Augustus Tower (see this property map).

I'll start reading through this now. JAGUAR  20:56, 11 December 2015 (UTC)


### Initial comments
"Opened in 1966 after four years of planning and construction" - best to start this sentence with something like It was opened in 1966... or First opened
"which was originally built at a cost of $95-million for Celine Dion's show A New Day... in 2003" - comma needed in between "show" and "A"
"stunt performer Evel Knievel arrived at the hotel to watch a boxing match and was convinced Sarno that he could jump" - delete "was"
" In September 2015, Caesars Palace agreed to pay the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) an $8 million civil money penalty for violating the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA)" - FinCEN and BSA aren't mentioned in the article again, so I'm not sure why these abbreviations are here
"A 20 feet (6.1 m) high statue of Julius Caesar hailing a cab" - 'taxi' might sound more informal, although I'm not sure if "cab" is preferred in the US
"It was made in Bangkok, Thailand, with a casting ceremony on November 25, 1983, according to the inscription on it" - this sentence doesn't have a citation
"WIFI access and shoeshine services are available for an additional charge" - WiFi
"Celebrities like Paris Hilton and Christine Aguilera" - Christina
"The featured desert is spotted dog" - it's spotted dick?
Spotted dog -it's a gimmick I think, it means spotted dick.
"the restaurant must be limited to service five days a week, to which Caesars agreed" - how about to which the management agreed?

### On hold
Those were all!  of the prose issues I could find during my review of the article. Nice work on this! It's well written and comprehensive. I love Caesars Palace now! JAGUAR  21:28, 11 December 2015 (UTC)
All answered for Jaguar, some good points, cheers. Considering the status of this place it really lacks scholarly/decent material aside from the typical Vegas touristy type stuff and news stories/snippets in books. There should be a detailed book on its history and architecture but there isn't. I guess because the main point is the gambling! We've done pretty well considering though I think, though I'm sure somewhere there's a lot more material which could be added.♦ Dr. Blofeld 21:32, 11 December 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for addressing them! I'm surprised to hear the lack of intellectual coverage on this, seeing as it's probably the biggest one in Las Vegas! Without further ado I'll promote this, just in time for Sinatra's 100th anniversary.  JAGUAR  21:41, 11 December 2015 (UTC)

Removed part about SIP telephones & manufacturer in one of the tower - insufficient encyclopedic value and likely to be deliberate advertising. 91.41.175.158 (talk) 20:26, 10 July 2016 (UTC)

This is probably one of the worst article I have come across for advertising. I am working at trimming back the fluff and puffery now. AIRcorn (talk) 20:29, 4 April 2018 (UTC)

Hello,
I noticed that Scéno Plus was the design firm for The Colosseum and is not mentionned in the article. Would it be appropriate to add a sourced mention of that fact? Here are a reliable source, see answer under the first question: 
https://www.livedesignonline.com/theatre/sceno-plus-37-years-theatre
I would suggest to add designed by Canadian Firm Scéno Plus after Celine Dion. Under Entertainment, Music and showmanship - the "Empire" was closed on November 30, 2002, after which the structure was razed to make room for a large concert hall created for singer Celine Dion.
I work with Scéno Plus, so I’m suggesting this as a COI edit request for transparency.
