Edit summary not understandable
I cannot understand the edit summary, accompanying this recent deletion, which says ["https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wagga_Wagga&action=history Questionable, nothing historic proving it"]. Nor does the deletion appear sensible. --2604:2000:E016:A700:83C:9D69:6EEB:19BE (talk) 11:31, 25 May 2017 (UTC)

Notable people
hi, i have just removed everything from the Wagga Wagga section to keep it WP:NPOV, they should only be listed at List of people from Wagga Wagga (i have added a couple of people that werent already included there). will hopefully be editing/improving(?:)) that list over the next few days.

 * Agree with the above. The current list is heavy with rugby league players of questionable notability (their significance is not summarised at all), while there are numerous Australian rules footballers of equal or greater notability left off the main page. --Rulesfan (talk) 06:10, 14 November 2022 (UTC)

2WG sign
Being only an occasional visitor to Wagga, I was quite pleased when the historical neon sign over the building at the south end of Fitzmaurice street was brought back to life. So recently, when staying in town overnight, I took a few pictures with the intention of adding them to this site. I added one composite (more later) photo to Commons, thence to this article. The picture was removed by User:Bidgee on the grounds that it was too dark (agreed, but not a hanging offence) and that 2WG no longer used the building (not implied). But taking his critique to heart, I replaced the picture with one I took later at a slower shutter speed. The same User, whose many superb shots in this article attest to the fact that he is a photographer of considerable ability, promptly removed that version on the grounds that the sky was "blown out", and the neons looked fake. If "blown out" means overexposed — True, but that's the price you pay for brightening up the building. As for the fake neons. . . yes. The picture is a composite of two photographs from the same spot, the second taken at night and (digitally) laid over the other. It could not be any other way if the tubes' colours are to be seen (the sign is not activated until dark). The final charge, that it's historical and not related to media, I can't answer. I'm not going to revert but someone else might. Doug butler (talk) 06:59, 18 March 2022 (UTC)
 * I was trying to give constructive criticism. A building that was use by a radio station over two decades ago and a call sign that is no longer in use. The media section doesn't go into the history. Also there are issues with the quality, neon is always is hard to photograph but is possible. Bidgee (talk) 11:35, 18 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Deletion is not constructive criticism. I was trying to capture a very interesting local artefact and reckon it was successful. I've seen a very good nighttime picture celebrating the switch-on; most attractive but not as informative. Doug butler (talk) 14:06, 18 March 2022 (UTC)
