Talk:Northfield, Minnesota

message: There is sure a lot of advertising in this page.  Should we really list all of these restaurants, bars and hotels?  Who will keep up with them as they go in and out of business?  Will Wikipedia be sued if a restaurant not mentioned here accuses of unfair advertising? RickK 02:19, 22 Aug 2003 (UTC)

message: A couple versions of something like "Northfield High School is known as one of the high schools with the highest standards in southern Minnesota" has shown up here. Like Lake Wobegon's above average students, many if not most communities would like to think their schools were "hard" or had the "highest standards." 
While I think the Northfield schools are good, I really doubt anyone could document that they are significantly better than other schools in southern Minnesota.

message: The history section is bogus original research and excuse me, Burnsville center is in Burnsville and has little to do with Northfield, 40 minutes away. Others can contribute, please help. .:DavuMaya:. 16:22, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Burnsville Center may be 30 minutes away, but it certainly is competition for Northfield retailers as is the Mall of America. Similarly, the Muller Family Theater (20 minutes away) in Lakeville competes successfully for movie goers from Northfield.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bartbee55057 (talk • contribs) 14:36, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

text: DavuMaya, your sarcastic "excuse me" and tone are unwelcome here.  Please point out how the "history section is bogus".  Burnsville has a *lot* to do with the small towns south/surrounding it. spelunkster 15:08, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

message: The Arts and Culture section needs significant additions. DJJD is not the only form of art in town. NAG (Northfield Arts Guild), I Cantanti (sp?), the summer Bridge Square Concerts should all be included. The Rock and Roll revival put on by NHS (Northfield High School) students is pretty well attended.Calebrw (talk) 15:27, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

message: Should sports be mentioned in detail? Northfield Knights, Legion baseball. NBA (Northfield Baseball Association). I know there are a few youth soccer teams as well, but I am not as familiar with them? Other youth sports on the large-scale level? Carleton and St. Olaf both have varsity sports teams and a summery of those could be included. Calebrw (talk) 15:30, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

message: Thanks for the photos Caleb. Do you have any of Main Street or more "overall" pictures of the town that would be great.  I have some too I'll upload them later. .:davumaya:. 22:55, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Not really, sorry. I was mostly concentrating on the NRHP photos. Just the bridge square statue and Ames Mill. — Calebrw (talk) 18:34, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
