Talk:Springdale, Arkansas

message: The football team information was relocated from the top of the article.  Though I don't live in the area — or perhaps because of it — the writing of this particular section seems highly subjective.  Someone needs to expand it to a proper education section, and eventually take out details that are sure to become dated in the coming weeks. — ArkansasTraveler 23:08, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: The football information is now dated and needs to be revised.  The high school football championships are significant for the community, but the current presentation is more a sports excerpt than a proper part of an article. RebelAt 18:09, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Education 

message: Hey, the population of the city as of 2000 was approximately 46,000.  The most recent Census Bureau estimates place the population upwards of about 70,000.  That is a HUGE gain over the decade.  I'm wondering if this is due most to migration to the city, or if a lot of this can be chalked up to annexation of surrounding unincorporated lands? --Criticalthinker (talk) 03:12, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Population Gain

message: That photo looks nice but the problem is that it is a picture of someone's cow pasture near Springdale and not a photo of the city itself.  I live in Rogers and I will see if I can take a pic to improve on this in the near future, unless someone already has a good one available.--Traveler7 (talk) 20:39, 12 June 2012 (UTC)

message: I'm getting afraid to even think of editing this Wikipedia, 'cause almost half the time, my edits get reverted and I get scolded due to it. I've been editing Simple English and English Wikipedia since August 2010; and that's almost eight years! The reason I changed the lower case black to African American is due to the repeated word and the redundant nature of the wording in Springdale, Arkansas. I cannot afford being blocked, 'cause if that were to happen, I wouldn't know how to request unblocks without my talk page access getting yanked away.

replies: text: And as I have explained to you at multiple articles over multiple years, we use the terminology the source (in this case the Census Bureau) uses.  If you have no better reason to change it other than you don't like it, don't change it.  For just about every racial grouping, there are multiple terms used to describe them.  For some individuals, the use of one or another causes offense.  So to avoid that rattrap,  we stick to the terms the source uses.  It isn't at all complicated.  Just find different things to edit.

thread_title:  Black or black (redundancy) 

message: I deleted Kiehl Frazier, but it was reverted.  I lived in Springdale +20 years, and don't consider him 'notable'.  Good comparison is Mitch Mustain, who isn't on this list.  I would consider him more 'notable' than Frazier, hence the deletion.
I am not concerned with anyone else on this list, just Frazier, and that I don't think he belongs on this list.  
Plus he was hardly relevant in college, take a look at his stats.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.58.115.11 (talk) 12:44, 20 July 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Notable persons section 

message: User:John from Idegon seems to think my edit (here) warranted unexplained removal, simply saying "off topic". A later explanation seems to have more taken issue with 'my attitude' than the valuable and sourced content and appropriate photos of the subject. Wikipedia policy: it is preferable for good faith (and, in fact, positive contributions) to the article remain in the article pending consensus. This policy was not followed by the User, instead an unexplained removal of sourced content and a combative message was provided.
I suppose User has decreed unilaterally the fact that the Don Tyson School of Innovation is a public charter in contrast to the other two traditional public high schools and one Christian high school is not important to the subject of secondary education in Springdale. Or that the school is newer that the other schools. Maybe this information could be noted on the school's page, but no page exists and I did not want to make a two sentence stub which would've likely been smitten out of existence by User. One of the four high schools in a city being a public charter warrants mention on the secondary education section of the page, and certainly isn't controversial enough to warrant unexplained removal.
User noted the page is "an already extremely cluttered low quality article" but apparently does not find even the most basic information about a high school as relevant to the subtopic of secondary education in the city. With User's strict unilateral gauge of what is "on topic", it is hard to see a future for this page, if this content is so extraneous as to warrant unexplained deletion.

thread_title:  Adding school information 

message: We were using an incomplete version of the weatherbox at Fayetteville,_Arkansas#Climate for this town, ... the climate is similar but not identical to this town, so I removed it for the sake of accuracy.  Springdale has no official weather station currently or recently in operation. —Soap— 17:20, 20 April 2021 (UTC)
