Talk:Santa Clarita, California

message: I'm not sure if I'm doing this correctly, but I will try. ;) As a local resource to Santa Clarita, what is the appropriate way to suggest our site, SantaClaritaGuide.com? I also feel that the West Ranch Beacon should be added here. Rovingwriter   —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rovingwriter (talk • contribs) 18:08, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

message: It would be nice if someone could get a panoramic photo of Santa Clarita, preferably including the spread of the city and Magic Mountain. My wife has taken some interesting pictures from the hiking trail above East Canyon off The Old Road, but they are too hazy and don't include Magic Mountain. Mike Dillon 22:24, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi Jeff. Thanks for offering your image. If you're referring to this image, I think that would be a nice addition to the article.

replies: text:  Thanks Mike. I agree to use cc-by-sa-2.5 with a simple hyptertext link to my website. Now, I have a higher res version of that photograph, I will upload it to my site. I'm not entirely comfortable editing Wiki pages yet; perhaps you could place the image in a good location and size it accordingly? I'll look for a way to email you. Thanks!

replies: text: Nevermind Mike, I figured out how to upload it after all. Do you think the placement/size etc are okay? Fun! --Jeff Wilson76 08:39, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for the upload. I moved the photo into the infobox and shortened the caption a little to fit better in the box. The placement/size before were fine, but I think it looks cooler in the infobox. Feel free to move it back if you don't like it. Mike Dillon 15:34, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

message: In 2004, the Santa Clarita Express are a collegiate team, made up of semi-pro players. I don't know the league the Express was in, but had played that year against opponents from the L.A. area. The ball park was on a college campus in Canyon Country, but forgot the college's name (please tell me what it is).
I believe it was College of the Canyons...Baldwin91006 (talk) 02:25, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

message: There seems to be a long term trend of a company inserting promotional text about their website under the local media section.  The problems here are twofold- one, if you take it upon yourself to add a designation under that section, keep in the spirit of the rest of the section and include all relevant media properties- not just one, and CERTAINLY not the one you own.  Two, it's a core Wikipedia principle that entries have a neutral point of view (NPOV).  These entries are anything but. I replaced this section with a simpler section that doesn't take favorites.

thread_title: Local Media

message: It has often been reported(and repeated) that at least 60-85% of all the sheriff's deputies in L.A. County live in Santa Clarita(of course, most deputies will try to publicly deny this fact, partly out of fear of embarrassing their city's image, or out of privacy concerns).
Can anybody try and verify this?

message: :Image:Santa Clarita 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 ensure 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 lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

message: The information at Newhall, California, can easily be combined with Santa Clarita, California. In fact, much of it is already posted there. GeorgeLouis (talk) 01:48, 11 October 2013 (UTC)

text: I agree--RichardMathews (talk) 18:18, 22 October 2013 (UTC)

text: Disagree. As stated prior, Newhall is historically important and deserves to be treated as such. Boundaries notwithstanding, the area is most definitely separate from the present day product of developers, the all-encompassing “Santa Clarita.” Imveracious (talk) 17:40, 21 November 2013 (UTC)

message: This community is now simply a neighborhood of Santa Clarita, and its population figures are now merged with the latter city. GeorgeLouis (talk) 01:55, 11 October 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Comment: If we did this, we should also merge numerous city neighborhood articles on Wikipedia (which there are thousands of them). Besides, Saugus, Newhall & Valencia had distinct histories prior to merging to create the municipality of Santa Clarita in 1987. --Moreau36--Discuss 18:04, 21 November 2013 (UTC)

message: Based on this article in the Los Angeles Times, the nickname "Awesometown" appears to be a marketing slogan for a housing development rather than an official nickname for the city.  I'm just putting this out there in case anyone disagrees. Bahooka (talk) 04:55, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
