Hi there, I sure didn't mean to use this for personal promotion. One error on the page is calling the North Bay Review a newspaper. It is actually the newsletter of the Allyn Community Association. Can we get that fixed? I just wrote facts I know, and indeed the community events of Allyn are what make this place unique. Allyn Days draws 5,000 people every year. We also added a Geoduck festival last year that made big news across the state. It looks like it will be an annual event. I'm not an encylopedia writer. Can someone fix this listing up a bit. It may not be promoting anything but it's lame and it's wrong. Eggrollcreative (talk) 17:26, 8 December 2011 (UTC)Eggrollcreative
 * Hi, I also responded to your question on my talk page, but will repost my reply here:
 * I'm actually familiar with Allyn Days (although it has been several years since I have been in the Allyn-Grapeview area). I can help with making corrections in the article, the only reason I removed it is the addition went into excessive details about the newsletter as well as listing multiple small and non-notable events.
 * I do have a questions though ... is it more accurate to place a mention of Allyn Days in the article Allyn-Grapeview, Washington, or in the article Allyn, Washington? --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 19:35, 8 December 2011 (UTC)
