Talk:Caffè Lena

message: have removed 'mike grutka' from the list of notable performers - he's a local performer and clearly doesn't belong on a list of names establishing the national and historical importance of this venue. Justinkrivers 03:03, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

message: This article looks like it was written as some sort of free promotion by the owner or operator.  And could there be a worse picture?  Anyone got sometihng better NOT from a camera phone?65.215.94.13 (talk) 00:26, 19 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: The picture is indeed bad, but I don't see a real neutrality problem here. The lack of information overall makes the present facts stand out a bit much, but I'm assuming they were added to show notability. There does need to be some better sources for the "oldest" claim though, since the current one isn't valid.—DMCer™ 07:15, 20 December 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: . It looks as though someone made a slip of the fingers on the keyboard, typing 43°48′50″N latitude when it should have been 43°4′50″N. I've changed the coordinates, not to the exact values you gave above but to the location where the Google street map shows the coffeehouse's entrance to be. Thanks for pointing out the error.

message: It's been a few years since I've worked on this article, but I think it needs a little consensus and shaping. I'm proposing that we expand it into sections that include "early years" "transition" and "current operations" or something like that, to give us some structure for fleshing out its various notable eras. 
This article has a history of borderline-notable performers inserting their names. I think, given the number of performers, we should be removing names of performers except for where they are significant to the history of the venue or the venue was significant to the history of the performer. Which would not include the recently added Kate McDonnell or Natalie Haas, but might include Don McLean, Utah Phillips, Bill Staines and obviously Bob Dylan. To collect performer lists, I suggest creating a category or stub for that purpose. Thoughts? Justinkrivers (talk) 19:04, 24 May 2023 (UTC)
