Talk:Klamath Falls, Oregon

message: Don't know if the article needs an "In popular culture" section or not, but for the record, there was a location based on Klamath Falls in the computer game Fallout 2.  cf. http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Klamath.  Make of it what you will. —chaos5023 (talk) 23:47, 13 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: +1, IMHO this should be shown on the page. It is what took me to this article in the first place. I wonder if this has affected the town at all since Fallout 2 was published. --X883 (talk) 20:19, 13 May 2018 (UTC)

message: I added a link to a flyer by the local museum explaining where the falls are; even many locals don't know about this. Dgabbard (talk) 23:50, 11 March 2011 (UTC)

message: The lead/intro section needs some work. First of all - please correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think that this is supposed to be here - "(Klamath: ?iWLaLLoon?a[5])". Second, the second sentence makes no sense. I would try to clean it up but I honestly have no idea what it is supposed to mean so I'm afraid I would probably just make it worse, which leads me to believe the best thing to do is just to call attention to it from other editors that might be more involved on this page. Here's the sentence:
:"Originally called Linkville when George Nurse founded the town in 1867, after the Link River on whose falls this city sat, although no falls currently exist; the name was changed to Klamath Falls in 1892." Charles35 (talk) 06:24, 25 December 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I simplified the sentence structure and hopefully clarified this introductory sentence.ronningt (talk) 17:06, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

message: Thanks for expanding the history section of the article, but I'm not sure why you added it to this article.  The etymology is about the region, not the city.  And much of what is in the history section is about the Klamath people, or about Klamath County and places "20 miles" south.  Thanks.  Magnolia677 (talk) 00:47, 29 May 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for your observation. The name has two distinct parts: Klamath + Falls, each with their own origin. Klamath, although tough to find an exact origin, is intimately related to the people that lived in the "region". Falls relates to the white waters just downstream of the Link River Dam. Perhaps the epigraph ought to be rewritten for clarity to reflect these two unique aspects of the name of the city. Good day Bobjgalindo (talk) 22:29, 29 May 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Your addition was great, I just wasn't sure if it was in the right place.  Cheers.  Magnolia677 (talk) 22:48, 29 May 2014 (UTC)
replies: text:  You mean the location of the epigraph? Like, moved to the end of the article? I kind of guided myself by other articles and where they had their "Etymology", like Saskatoon or Kaišiadorys. Yet, not many city articles have a section for the origin of their name, most of them have a comment in the introduction, like Nauvoo, Illinois. Klamath Falls has such a unique name I thought opening a new section, mainly because I feared it might be too bulky within the introduction or even in the History section. To tell you the truth, I find that name so enriching it is tempting to start a whole new article on it, kind of like Etymology of Pittsburgh or Etymology of Edinburgh.

message: The references in the Demographics no longer point to the data they are meant to support, essentially dead links. Possibly the Census Bureau moved it elsewhere. This link to Quick Facts here might support some data in the article and add more recent demographic information. - - Prairieplant (talk) 19:56, 1 April 2023 (UTC)
