Talk:Beatty, Nevada/Archive 1

Opening comment
What disaster? The link is dead and I can't find anything after a few simple googles... is this a hoax? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.33.6.215 (talk • contribs)


 * It wasn't cited and at any rate the claims were rather fantastic so it doesn't really matter. I suspect it was a joke based on the events in the movie Tremors..  MGlosenger 20:14, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

Looks like a hoax
Sure looks like a hoax to me, tagged as such Brian 20:15, 17 June 2007 (UTC)btball


 * Sure, it's just nonsense vandalism from that Tremors film. If the vandal returns (he won't, it's a one-day vandal account) we should just block him and revert. -- Finlay McWalter | Talk 23:29, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

Pronunciation
It's probably worth mentioning that the town is pronounced with a long "a" in in the first syllable: BAIT-tee. Someone can recast that into IPA... Slgillett (talk) 16:54, 25 August 2009 (UTC)

Angel's Ladies
I added a bit on Angel's Ladies. Can someone work in into the article a little better. Note that the brothel has a film about it. Vegaswikian (talk) 08:09, 6 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Good catch. I tweaked the entry slightly per your request. Hope that is OK. Finetooth (talk) 17:16, 6 June 2010 (UTC)

Thanks
Thanks to User:Juliancolton for doing the review and to User:Vegaswikian, User:Yellow Evan, and User:JonRidinger for helping to get this to GA. Finetooth (talk) 04:10, 9 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I never realized how much work it is to pass the GA reviews. Glad that this one made it with a lot of help.  In the future I'll try to remember to never nominate 2 or more articles at the same time!  But thanks to all who helped. Vegaswikian (talk) 22:44, 12 June 2010 (UTC)

Boundaries
If anyone ever decides to do anything about the town boundaries, this link to the RJ article on the town never having been created may be of some use. I guess the remaining question is, did Nye County take any action on this in 2010? I did get a kick out of seeing that it is an unformed, unincorporated town.

 * That's a wonderful article. No wonder I had trouble figuring out exactly what and where Beatty is. Finetooth (talk) 23:12, 12 June 2010 (UTC)
