Talk:Leavenworth, Washington

message: This paragraph gets it fairly wrong:
The city struggled until 1962, when the Project LIFE (Leavenworth Improvement For Everyone) Committee was formed to transform the city into a mock Bavarian village to revitalize its economy.[6] Owen and Pauline Watson, owners of a business on Front Street, formed the committee after visiting Solvang, California in 1958 and thought it was an excellent idea for Leavenworth.
See HistoryLink for the correct history: http://www.historylink.org/index.cfm?DisplayPage=output.cfm&file_id=9475
The Bavarian village idea was created by two Seattle business men, Ted Price and Bob Rodgers, who happened to be a closeted gay couple. Project LIFE was a partnership with the UW to revitalize the failing logging town. Price introduced the Bavarian Village idea into the mix years later. Price and Rodgers led the Solvang trip.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jestapher (talk • contribs) 20:23, 8 November 2015 (UTC)
thread_title: History is wrong

message: In addition to being disproportionately large given the size of the article, this section seems to have been lifted from a guidebook or tourist information. For example sentences like "During the Pleistocene and on into the Holocene epoch Leavenworth would have been a cold place to live." Also lots of 2nd person. And it defines graben in text instead of just linking to the Graben article. Anyway is it likely that a visitor to the article is going to want to know such detailed information about the geology? Which also isn't citing any scientific papers? 132.75.80.102 (talk) 20:07, 1 December 2014 (UTC)
thread_title: Geology section

message: This isn't the most high traffic article so I doubt anyone will bring it up, but the Leavenworth Nutcracker Museum's about page actually says 4,000 nutcrackers, as does the title on their main page. Elsewhere on the main page it says "well over 5,000" so I assume they hit the number relatively recently. Figured I'd note that in case someone takes issue with the claim.

message: I've remove  because the image is not a useful illustration of the city which is barely visible.
The original editor (and it appears the photographer and uploader of the image) added it back claiming that it illustrates the geography section. However, the entire text in that section reads:
The image is marginally related to the section title, but it does not illustrate the city nor any text within the section to which it's being added, so I've removed it again. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 02:56, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: The original edit/contributor  has again added the image with the edit summary "It's not supposed to be explicitly of the city but the local geography of the region." However, as pointed out above, the image does not illustrate any of the text in the geography section - it's only marginally related because of the section title. It's a nice image, but it's not a useful illustration for an article about the city. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 03:01, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
