Talk:Chillicothe, Ohio

message: An anonymous contributor recently added Douglas Lee Coffland to the list of Chillicothe's notable people.
Is this person really notable? Is this guy and the anonymous contributor the same person? 
Also, this edit was done in slapdash fashion without following proper format, which is perplexing given that THE MARK-UP LANGUAGE IS CLEARLY VISIBLE WHEN YOU'RE EDITING THE PAGE--ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS COPY WHAT'S RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU!
Sorry for shouting, but do you really want to crow about this guy graduating from the "class of 1967" (where exactly?) when none of the other entries contain this information? Comments, anyone? Kinkyturnip (talk) 02:58, 29 March 2018 (UTC)

message: No offense, this was our nickname for this town when we used to drive through it on our way to Hocking Hills when I was a kid. The reason was that the paper mill made an incredible stink that the local residents were apparently all used to. I believe I heard this is no longer the case, but I wonder if there is any information about this out there. Beeblebrox (talk) 01:22, 1 April 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I guess I could have looked before commenting, I searched “Chillicothe smells” and got a number of hits, from which I have now added a section on the local economy, the mill, and the smell. I tried to be nice about it. Beeblebrox (talk) 01:36, 1 April 2018 (UTC)

text: Of the two refs I used, one didn’t comment one way or the other on it and the other said that widespread fumes on one particular day were not specifically harmful, but I think you have a point and have removed the bit about them being unharmful. Also, I gotta ask, did you just get used to the smell and not really notice it anymore? Beeblebrox (talk) 21:41, 1 April 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Stinktown 

message: As the only city in the area, Chillicothe is a hub for economic activity. Malls, hospitals, prisons and a college campus are among the largest employers, but the most notable employer in the area is a Pixelle paper mill (formerly Glatfelter which was formerly Mead Paper) that has been in operation for over 100 years. The mill can sometimes create noxious odors, which residents refer to as “the smell of money”.[15][16]
This is simply false. The largest employer, by FAR, is Kenworth and its partners, followed by the Adena Regional Medical Center. Kenworth is THE company people want to work for and they have so many employees that there is a massive increase in traffic between shifts. It is also PACCAR's show plant and the place they do most of their experimental work at. 
The paper mill, on the other hand, is not nearly as significant for empoyment.5.173.129.130 (talk) 11:20, 19 March 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Interesting comment, the way we make changes like this here on Wikipedia is by adding reliable sources that verify the proposed change. If you have those, this can easily be changed to reflect what they say. Beeblebrox (talk) 22:07, 19 March 2020 (UTC)

message: As of June 3, 2020, the map that appears at the top right of this article is not at all helpful. Please restore the map that shows where this city is located in the state of Ohio. 173.88.246.138 (talk) 17:43, 3 June 2020 (UTC)

text: Try hitting the full-screen button on the map. It'll show the city's location in Ohio, the U.S., and the world, and if you zoom in, it'll show you the streets, parks, highways, and waterways, along with surrounding places. It's a significant improvement over just a map of the city's location within the state. ɱ (talk) 14:08, 9 June 2020 (UTC)
