Talk:Aberdeen, South Dakota

message: Please note the photo- Its a photo that I snapped last winter during the demolition of the YMCA. It really isn't that attractive. Can anyone find or take a better picture of Aberdeen? I'm not exactly there right now to do this myself. The current photo has a nice view of the town, but the snow, traffic, and road barricades do not accurately represent the city of Aberdeen.--H2O2 09:55, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

message: I hope the page no longer reads like it was written by the Aberdeen Chamber of Commerce.  I removed all non-encyclopedic content and blatantly promotional language, and I'll be watching this page to see if any of it creeps back in.  ObtuseAngle 16:28, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

message: The page has been cleaned up--again--and much of the extraneous material introduced yesterday has been removed.  The Education section is still badly bloated.  ObtuseAngle 19:32, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  7 Dec rework 

message: I understand that you are editing this article in good faith, but you are not writing this as an encyclopedia article (which this is, even if you are writng it as a paper for some class) should be written. It does not have the apropriot tone expected in wikipedia, and reads like a resaech paper or something rather than an encyclopedia article. Also it should not include things such as elaborate discriptions of various intstitutions and busineses as this promotes them and should be deleted as it could be considered advertising. I know that you supposedly have to write this for a class, but that does not give you permission to butcher the encyclopediadic value of this encyclodepia article.

message: The links in this article are out of control. The same pages are linked many times even though they should only be linked the first time. Particularily redundent is the Aberdeen links which appear numerous times and go to an article that has nothing to do with this one. They apppear to be an attempt to link this article to itself which is not a logical use of links. I cleared out some, but many more need to go. Spiesr 17:52, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Links

message: I suspect that much of the History section is lifted verbatim from one of the sources listed (improperly) in the Citations section.  Can anyone confirm this? ObtuseAngle 21:08, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

message: I see that the record high for Oct in the infobox is labeled as 0 degrees F.  Can someone please put in the correct info  Thanks  Lmielke359 22:32, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Record High in Oct 

message: I don't see what the point of this section is.  Why are all the mall stores listed - many of these stores are in most malls in America - what is notable about this section other than the info on the local downtown?  Lmielke359 00:56, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

message: There have been 80 tornadoes in Brown County since 1950. The worst touched down in the city of Aberdeen itself on June 21, 1961.--Kevjgav (talk) 21:52, 1 February 2015 (UTC)
