Talk:Payson, Arizona

Wondering how to edit this U.S. City Entry? The WikiProject U.S. Cities standards might help.

Visit Payson? Maybe not...
I was thinking of a road trip up to Payson and was pleased to find an entry in Wikipedia until I read the section on Culture, which I think contains too many opinions to be encyclopedic, regardless of citations. In light of the other comnments and examples in this section, I wonder if someone is determined to present Payson in a bad light.

"The area is well known for the cultivaion of Cannabis Sativa. Some of the Largest fields in the United States have been found there. [4]

The use, distribution, and manufacture of d-N-methylamphetamine in the area is extremely heavy.[5]

A heavy concentration of registered sex offenders live in the area. Including individuals who impersonate minors and even register as students in the local schools..[6]"

Some debated content
Okay, here we go, I've pasted in below the content that's been added several times. My main objection is the colloquial tone and overall unencyclopaedic quality. I'm open to discussion though - so is there anything in particular about all of this that you want to see added; that you think the article is currently lacking? This is just to get the ball rolling. --P e ruvianLlama(spit) 06:05, 6 February 2006 (UTC)


 * I've read carefully through the above, and weeded out everything that was overtly non-NPOV or irrelevant. I was left with this:

''The Mogollon Rim lies to the North of town. Three golf courses exist within the area, two of which are owned and operated by private country clubs.''
 * I have since added this back into the main article. Thoughts? --P e ruvianLlama(spit) 06:31, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
