Talk:Painesville, Ohio

message: I noticed that the population for the city itself looked correct. But when the article stated, "including the township 52,401," the article is incorrect. There are only 16K residents in Painesville Township. You might get 52,401 if you include the 16K residents living in near by Concord township as well? Did the author intend this? mdedmonds {chat} 03:30, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

message: This article needs updated, it appears to be way off currently. Though I know that this article was based off of the 2000 census, I happen to know that not 3/4 people in Painesville are white. And also, I know for a fact that 35% of all students in Painesville City Local Schools are hispanic, and it says here that the city's population is 13% hispanic. I don't see how this is possible.

replies: text: How do you 'know' the percentage of whites? What source are you referencing? And, it is easy for 13% of the population to provide 35% of the students. One does not have anything to do with the other. For example, 100% of the students could be Hispanic if 87% of the population were not students. Your 35% figure would be relevant to a story about the school population, not the city's census, but only with a reliable reference. Yunchie (talk) 20:50, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Page needs updated 

message: I have reverted a recent edit to the article, Painesville, Ohio, concerning the filming location of One Potato, Two Potato. First, your statement is incorrect, as an office building actually sits on that spot now (according to a Google Street Level map), not a 'government parking lot', and your addition in general, is not relevant to the story of the Parmly being part of the filming location. Additionally, it sounds like an editorial comment, rather than an encyclopedic fact. An expansion of the filming location story, based on reputable sources would be a better contribution.

thread_title:  Filming Location - Reverting Edits 

message: The paragraph in the Geography section of this article concerning the "embedding in the township" needs to be rewritten. It is filled with "Peakcock Terms", and editorializing about a government presence. Yunchie (talk) 20:29, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Painesville Geography 

message: In response to a recent edit war about the demise of the Parmly Hotel, and the relevance of that fact on the article's section about the filming location, I have done a minor rewrite to better define that the section is about the appearance of the city during the era of the filming, but still indicate that the Parmly is now gone without speculating about that history.
So far, this section is only referenced by the film itself and its success at the film festival. I would also suggest that anyone with easy access to research local newspaper publications at the time of the filming, could expand on this section greatly. Yunchie (talk) 15:09, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Filming Location (Parmly Hotel) 

message: Research of publications about the so-called 'urban renewal' process of the city's downtown, which I am aware has been a sore spot amongst the city's residents for a long time, could create a distinct section that would be a valuable addition to this article. In the meantime, the highly-opinionated material should be removed. The fact that the City of Painesville is embedded in Painesville Township could be included with a simple link to that page.
