Talk:Deming, New Mexico

message: Quote: "There are numerous ancient Native American sites around Deming. The Mimbres and Casas Grandes cultures made pottery of remarkable quality, and the Deming area is (or was) rich in native pottery artifacts...as well as beads, stone implements, stone carvings, graves, etc. Laws against these practices were passed, but the damage had been done."

thread_title:  Removal of Mayor and City Council from article 

message: There are several unique qualities and characteristics to Deming, NM, that are not documented in this wikipedia page.
I am not a resident, nor have enough background for documenting and citing the specific references, footnotes, etc.
I would like to recommend someone from Deming, possibly involved with the Luna County Historical Museum, to share the information with the world.
Here's an idea:  A high school teacher could assign their students to research and document their findings in the wikipedia.  First rough drafting and vetting the information off-line (not in wikipedia) and later migrating their results to the website.
Topics to be included or considered:
* Bataan & Corregidor (Death March).
* Deming High School Fight Song and DHS Alma Mater Song (both written by Nacio Herb Brown).
* Inventors and Patent Holders
* Song writers, band leaders, and composers
* Second Transcontinental Railroad
* WWII POW camp
* Charlie the Wildcat
* Rockhounds / Gemstones seekers
..and by no means am I intending for this to be a community bulletin board.  
I think there are lots of interesting facts and tidbits that would create a great page for people looking for Deming information.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.121.28.16 (talk) 01:04, 19 October 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Additional sub-topics to add to Deming, NM 

message: I think there should be a "controversy" section so that details of the multiple cavity searches ordered by the Cities' Police department can be made known.  David Eckert was pulled over for failing to stop at a Wal-Mart parking lot stop sign, and the arresting officer claims to have seen Eckert "clench his butt cheeks" and this perceived act allowed the Police to perform and order performed at least 8 cavity searches including several inspections of his anus, an x-ray and 3 colonoscopies.  No drugs were found.

message: There is a separate article Deming Public Schools. Is there an objection to merging Deming Public Schools with this article in the Education section?--Joe (talk) 16:12, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, Oppose merge. School districts should have articles separate from that of the municipality. The district serves areas other than Deming and it has one school in Columbus, New Mexico (See the district map). I do not know if the city of Deming actually controls Deming Public Schools. It is common in the USA for the school district to be completely separate from the city administration. WhisperToMe (talk) 23:38, 24 February 2014 (UTC)
replies: text:  I checked the website of the Deming PS. http://web.archive.org/web/20140208033202/http://demingps.org/board_of_education indicates that there is a board of education that oversees the district. I see no evidence that the city has any say or control in the school district. If someone wants to argue that it should be merged into the city article, I would like to see any evidence that the city controls the school district, or if in New Mexico school districts are controlled by cities.

text: Comment: I've also found extensive info about the services to residents of Palomas. If enough material is added, it means the article will be too big to merge into Deming anyway. (see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/History of the Hmong in Merced, California where a Wikipedian made the "too big to merge" argument) WhisperToMe (talk) 04:29, 1 March 2014 (UTC)
