Amarillo, Texas[edit]
Been working on this article and its subpages for a couple weeks, now. How can we improve to make it a good city article? Thanks. --J. Nguyen 04:50, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
- One paragraph sections are bad. One sentence sections are worse. Same goes for sections with a single table. All in all, try to merge a couple sections.
- Paper references would be nice, even though not an obligation, as article looks well referenced as is.
Haven't thoroughly, but the firstwill get you rejected at first sight. Circeus 17:39, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
- J. Nguyen has done a good job of consolidating/expanding sections. I'm not sure what you mean by "paper references." Could you elaborate? There are a good number of references currently. Many of them are to newspaper articles if that's what you mean. I'd appreciate any further feedback. Lbbzman 00:00, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
- The various GR references don't go anywhere except the main geographic references page; I have absolutely no clue what they are meant to do. Johnleemk | Talk 15:33, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
- Ah, don't worry about it. Yes, it is confusing. Those GR references tag were putted in by the User:Rambot a couple of years back. The Geographic references page has changed so much recently that it use to have a "shortcuts" to where the reference materials but people have deleted them. For instance, look at a prevous version of the GR page and look at the "Demographics" sections of many United States city articles including this one that were generated by RamBot. It has a "GR2" near the word census when someone clicks on it then they will be directed to the GR page and the browser will stop at the 2 The United States Census Bureau's 2000 census data. Much of the geographic and demographic information for the U.S. states... Thanks for the info. --J. Nguyen 23:42, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
- A casual reader would be confused by this, so it might be best to either remove them or find some other way of consolidating the info. Johnleemk | Talk 09:44, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
- The problem is that a lot of United States city articles use the GR# reference tags even if I just remove them in this article only. I contacted the guy who changed it and asked why did it. User talk:HenryLi#Geographic references changes on 25 February 2006 --J. Nguyen 01:01, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
- If he doesn't reply back to me in a couple of days, I guess I will put back the old stuff in but of course with the recent changes to the page. --J. Nguyen 01:30, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
