Talk:Centennial Olympic Park

mentions of the bombings erased?
I need to double check this, but I remember they had left area's of the pavement in the park as they stood after the blast as a memorial. There was also a small bronze monument. I don't think these things have been taken down, but I'll go and check sometime this week before I edit. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.34.9.97 (talk • contribs).

Not sure if this is the correct way to address this or the correct procedure, so I apologize in advance if I am in error. The photo on the main page labeled artistic installation actually contains evidence of the bombings. Visible in the bronze are indentations made by shrapnel from the bomb. Eric Rudolph used nails in his bombs and one imprint is a perfect impression of the nail. Several smaller gouges are also visible. The spots are barely visible in the photo. Furthermore, there is a whole area dedicated to the bombing victims..."quilt of rememberance". This area includes a bronze plaque as well as a "quilt" made of stone from various countries. Just came from the park today...8/26/07 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 166.82.187.34 (talk) 23:07, August 26, 2007 (UTC)

Carriere-LeBlanc
I have removed the Carriere-LeBlanc images. Their notability is not apparent to me, and the images are probably copyrighted by the company that created the certificates rather than the purchaser. See:, - SCEhard T 21:55, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

LaTour Genealogical Collection 22:04, 14 February 2008 (UTC) That is sad that you removed them. Again they are part of the park, just link any other monument. They direct a person to a specific location in the park. Monuments are also often designed to convey historical or political information. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Harrisonlatour (talk • contribs) 22:04, 14 February 2008 (UTC)


 * There are thousands of similar bricks in the park. I don't understand what makes this one unique. - SCEhard T 22:42, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

LaTour Genealogical Collection 22:13, 14 February 2008 (UTC) To my knowledge it was a donation, which would be part of a non-profit organization, so therefore no copyright will apply.


 * I don't think that is how US copyrights work. I'll bring up the issue at our copyright troubleshooting page. - SCEhard T 22:42, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

1996 Bombing Deaths
The section on the 1996 bombing notes that two people died; however, only one was a result of the actual bomb explosion. The second death was a cameraman who suffered a heart attack when he was running in to document what was going on. I'm wondering if this should be changed or clarified?TheBigFish (talk) 23:57, 26 December 2013 (UTC)
