Talk:Casa Grande, Arizona

I (heart) Casa Grande
I love Casa Grande. Its a small little town that i want to write about in articles! Go Casa Grande!Hey Joe what you know? (talk) 02:12, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

Message
Casa Grande is a lovely little city in the hottest place on the planet.

This statement doesn't seem relevant and has grammatical errors "Rumors are spread throughout Casa Grande that state Casa Grande will host Arizona's largest mall. New comfirmation from City Hall proves that it will not be host to the largest mall in the state." Rockrox 23:27, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

 * I edited that statement, put that a citation was needed (I can't find one other than hearsay), and added it to a new section called Economy. I will be working more on this article over the next few days - if anyone has ideas, please post them here. I live there so I can possibly get a good picture - it's not really relevant to have a picture of the Casa Grande ruins in this article, since the ruins are in Coolidge. Aguerriero 03:29, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

Dec 4 2006- You can also mention that Casa Grande literally means "Big House." Not very important, but it does parallel with the fact that Casa Grande is becoming a large town.

What a banal town.

XXXXXXXX I don’t understand the mention to almost exclusive adjectives. San Francisco means Saint Francis; Saint is an adjective; it tells that that guy, Francis, was a good felow, loved by God.

Edit for Casa Grande (Ariz.)
I’m with a non-profit organization that serves children called KaBOOM! and Casa Grande has received the honor of being designated as a Playful City USA by KaBOOM! because the city has made a great commitment to children. This is a competitive honor the city celebrates receiving every year by hosting a large Play Day with residents from the community. I wanted to suggest the following text because of Wikipedia’s COI guidelines to see if editors would agree on the designation’s merit:

In 2009-10, the city was recognized as part of the "Playful City USA" initiative by KaBOOM! created to honor cities that ensure that their children have great places to play. 24.255.212.237 (talk) 22:32, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

 * I'm inclined to say that this should not be added. This is because, as the link points out, 118 cities have received this award, and I certainly don't think we want to add this to every one of those pages. Furthermore, this is an award given out by a charity, but it doesn't seem to be one that is particularly notable--while Kaboom has its own Wikipage, the Playful City award does not, and it isn't even discussed very significantly on the Kaboom page. So I'm inclined to leave this off. I'd welcome the input of other editors, though, and could possibly be persuaded otherwise. Qwyrxian (talk) 07:41, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

Dates are wrong!
The article cites the dates as beginning in 2089 and continues to use these type of late 21st century dates throughout the paragraph. Eventually, there are dates referenced in the early 20th century. Probably, the dates should be changed to represent the significant dates in the late 19th century correctly. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.193.165.2 (talk) 17:56, 25 April 2013 (UTC)

Who are they?
I just finished answering that question for each of the "notable people" from Casa Grande. I hope the concise description I gave for each of them is correct. DutchmanInDisguise (talk) 15:28, 9 December 2013 (UTC)

Question
Should we add a section on the Coolidge Municipal Airport? See http://www.coolidgeaviation.com/history.htm --Bill.albing (talk) 18:53, 28 April 2010 (UTC)

 * I think so, an airport would qualify as an important building in a city. Shakinglord (talk) 02:22, 15 August 2011 (UTC)

Oh that's not an airport...that's just where they're hiding the WMDs. I know that town...they aren't fucking around. Rumor has it they're going to invade Poland next September.67.1.64.21 (talk) 15:17, 10 August 2012 (UTC)

Gallery
The gallery should be about images which reflect historic Coolidge and not of only one main subject. The gallery was cluttered with images of the Casa Grande Ruins. One or two are enough and the rest belong in the Casa Grande Ruins article. The Coolidge Women's Club building, which is in the NRHP and the historic 1939 original Coolidge High School, which is NRHP eligible, do belong in the gallery. The 1959 scene of Coolidge is better suited in the infobox or within the article. Tony the Marine (talk) 17:08, 17 April 2016 (UTC)

Picacho Stagefield
Some web sites with lists of "strange things seen on Google Earth" include a picture of an airport and claim it's in the desert near Eloy, Arizona.(picture #19) The runways are part of Picacho Stagefield which is a heliport located at 32.66337°N, -111.48762°W. The facility is located south of Picacho, Arizona which is a town immediately southeast of Eloy, Arizona.

http://azmemory.azlibrary.gov/cdm/ref/collection/statepubs/id/9223 says that "Picacho Stagefield, located to the west of Picacho Peak, has four helicopter landing lanes (each 1,500 feet long), an air traffic control tower, and on-site crash / rescue facilities. Picacho Stagefield is the primary location for trauma and emergency procedure training."

https://gsd.az.gov/sites/default/files/documents/files/FY14BSIReport_0.pdf says that Picacho Stagefield was constructed in 1995 and inventories a Fire Station, Air Navigation Building, a water storage tank, and a well water system as part of the facility.

http://www.denix.osd.mil/sri/upload/srr2007.pdf is the only public hit for "Picacho Stagefield" in the .mil domain says that the stagefield covers 353 acres.

Talk:Florence, Arizona

No population growth?
I somehow find it difficult to believe that the population of Florence has shrunken by exactly one person between 2000 and 2005. First of all, even if you pretend that there has been no growth in the area, births and deaths within that time period make it very, very, very unlikely that the population would remain so close to the original number. Was the person who made that estimate doing drugs or something? Especially when you consider the enormous growth that Florence has been experiencing. --Node 01:17, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned references in Florence, Arizona
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Florence, Arizona's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "Census 2010": From Bisbee, Arizona:  From Top-of-the-World, Arizona:  From Kalaheo, Hawaii:  From Kenedy, Texas:  From Winkelman, Arizona:  From Globe, Arizona:  From Stringtown, Oklahoma:  From Fort Meade, Maryland:

From Leupp, Arizona:

From St. Johns, Arizona:

From Clifton, Arizona:

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 08:52, 30 October 2019 (UTC)

Fixing broken reference
I've fixed a problem of an undefined reference being invoked. The article contains this code:   Problem is, the reference "Census 2010" isn't defined in the article, and this causes the article to render with an error message in the references section: Cite error: The named reference Census 2010 was invoked but never defined (see the help page).

We do have a reference for 2015 Census data, so I've switched to those numbers and that reference. Reverting this change simply replaces the un-cited information and the error about the missing citation. -- Mikeblas (talk) 15:40, 8 December 2020 (UTC)

Talk:Gold Camp, Arizona

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

I have lived in "Gold Camp" for 6 years now and I have not ever heard anyone ever call it "Gold Camp". The main page for this article indicates "The community is sometimes colloquially called Gold Canyon." People who live here sometimes call it "Gold Canyon" about 99.99% of the time. In fact, the community sign on the US60 freeway heading east bound indicates that you are entering "Gold Canyon". The only way I found out about "Gold Camp" is Google changed the name of the area from "Gold Canyon" to "Gold Camp". In fact, I would like to see any proof of any businesses named "Gold Camp XXXX" instead of "Gold Canyon Golf Resort", "Gold Canyon Car Wash", "Gold Canyon Bank", "Gold Canyon Community Church", etc.

--Jfdco (talk) 00:38, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

I too agree that this community is improperly referred to as "Gold Camp". I lived in this town for 4 years, my parents for 15 years, and never before reading this Wikipedia page had i ever heard of it referred to as "Gold Camp" Its proper name is Gold Canyon. I have researched this across many resources and the only reference i can find to "Gold Camp" besides this misguided Wiki is from the US Census Bureau, which isnt responsible for the naming of cites, towns or communities, only counting the people in them.

Searching the Pinal County, State of Arizona, us.gov, usps.gov and many other websites for "Gold Camp, Arizona" returns no results. However searching each of those websites for Gold Canyon, Arizona returns many results, including usps.gov returning a zip code of 85118 for Gold Canyon. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wallyb132 (talk • contribs) 06:11, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

I figured out the whole Gold Camp vs Gold Canyon thing, There is a small settlement or CDP called Gold Camp near Gold Canyon, but Gold Camp is not part of Gold Canyon. Gold Camp is about 14 miles driving, or 10 miles as the bird flies to the southeast of Gold Canyon next to Queen Valley, AZ. For lack of a better description, Gold Camp is a suburb of Queen Valley. I originally found this out using google maps, however google maps doesn't show the label for Gold Camp any longer and if you search for Gold Camp on google maps now, it just shows you Gold Canyon. Bing maps however still get it right, both showing the label for Gold Camp and if you search for Gold Camp, AZ it shows the correct location. See the link below.

Once I can find more information on Gold Camp, such as its demographics, I'll fix wiki pages and separate them into their own pages.

City of Maricopa, Arizona The entry citing the following is wrong:

They are currently planning a comprehensive trail system that will be approximately 40 miles in length, connecting multiple communities throughout the city.

The cite for this information is "The Maricopa Trail". First of all the City of Maricopa is only a couple miles square. More important, the Maricopa Trail is being proposed for the Greater Phoenix metropolitan area, which is in Maricopa County, Arizona, and tens of miles to the north. The City of Maricopa is located in Pinal County, and no such trail is associated with this City. This is a factual error that needs to be removed from the page on the City of Maricopa. You could place with with Maricopa County, if you like. You may check this assertion by clicking on the link to "The Maricopa Trail". There you will see the Phoenix metropolitan area, including the cities of Phoenix, Chandler, Tempe, Mesa, Glendale, etc.

 * See the Saxton/Enos dictionary, where Ge'e Ki: is listed as the name for Sacaton. Not sure why, but it is. -Node 06:35, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Recent history: low-cost retirement homes
When the mine, mill and smelter closed, many homes went on the market at very reasonable prices. If my memory is accurate (dubious), most or all of the homes had been sold to employees years before. It seems like this would be a worthy addition to our article.

I used to consult with BHP, though rarely at San Manuel. But it was close enough to my 'home turf" (Tucson and Globe-Miami) that I was generally aware of what was happening there. Perhaps I'll get energetic and try to put something together with decent sourcing. Don't hold your breath! Cheers, Pete Tillman (talk) 01:49, 9 April 2023 (UTC), retired geologist.

Two San Tans
The census data are actually for San Tan Village, located considerably further southwest, between Coolidge and Casa Grande in the Gila River Indian Community. San Tan village has had that name for far longer (centuries, if not longer). However, San Tan Village also has an old Anglo name that was used until about half a century ago, Santa Ana, so that could be used if necessary. --Node 10:57, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

 * Actually if you look at http://ftp2.census.gov/geo/maps/blk2000/st04_Arizona/County/04021_Pinal/CBC04021_000.pdf the CDP is just south of Chandler, on the Gila River reservation. But the point about it being seperate from the proposed city is still valid, the article should mention that. Arkyan 17:06, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

I have been trying to edit the notable natives and someone keeps deleting Dr. Ootist Arana, the TV personality and hair regrowth specialist (she did those infomercials). How can I get her on there?

Name origin obscure or not?
The introductory paragraph says the origin of the name is obscure, implying that maybe it's because there used to be walnut trees. The History section states the name definitely comes from walnut trees. Which is it? 151.204.233.138 (talk) 18:48, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I've never heard anything definitive about the name and had thought that the walnut trees bit was speculation. Considering that neither statement is sourced, I would recommmend rewording the second mention to add some element of doubt to the origins. -- Irn (talk) 05:02, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
 * So I did a little googling, and everything that turned up seemed to point to walnut trees. Specifically, I don't know how reliable the | City of Nogales website is, but it states, "The name Nogales comes from the Spanish word "walnut" and Walnut trees once grew abundantly in the mountain pass between the city of Nogales, Arizona and Nogales, Mexico." But I think the best source is the website for | the Pimeria Alta Museum, which strikes me as more reliable (because it is a historical society), and that notes that in 1882 "Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe RR builds depot straddling border, names “Nogales” after Elias ranch" and that "Los Nogales de Elias (site ambos of Nogales) land grant made to Elias family by Mexican government " in 1841, which would make me think the walnut tree claim is in fact correct. -- Irn (talk) 05:25, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

Non-notable people
Please do not add to the list folks who are not notable. Even if there is a footnote, that does not make them notable, per wiki standards. Thanks.  Onel 5969  TT me 20:38, 12 December 2015 (UTC)
 * I disagree. There are lots of people who are notable and have just not had an article written about them yet.  I think that you removed Bogie's mistress and a quick search of the internet will show that she was much talked about.  Are you going to force me to do a sloppy stub of her just to get her on this list?  Einar aka Carptrash (talk) 00:35, 13 December 2015 (UTC)
 * It's okay to disagree. However, there is no way that either of the folks I removed would survive an AfD discussion. The mistress' only claim to fame is that she was a mistress. Take a look at WP:1E. In addition, notability is not inherited: if she was my mistress, she would not be notable. Simply because she was shtupping a celeb does not make her notable. If there are substantial articles about her, not about her promiscuity with Bogart, than she might have some notability. I did a search, and there simply isn't enough there. Same with the other person.  Onel 5969  TT me 01:25, 13 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Hubris. And you are notable, but notable enough for it to rub off on your mistress?  Irrelevant anyway.  7&6=thirteen (☎) 20:07, 13 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Ah... some more civility. Thanks for your consistency. Perhaps it is irrelevant. And so is this alleged self-promoting mistress.  Onel 5969  TT me 21:36, 13 December 2015 (UTC)

You might as well start arming up your arguments for and against J.P.S. Brown because he is the next not notable Nogales born person to be written up. Carptrash (talk) 21:43, 13 December 2015 (UTC)

Should it not be mentioned that it is primarily an artist colony? Khiradtalk 04:35, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

It was once. Someone very zealously deleted a lot of cultural material about Tubac in this article, probably because they thought it was "commercializing". Such is the price of letting nuts edit things.

Secondly, is it "true" that the name is from co:wak? A far more likely origin is cu' wa:'(k), a local O'odham dialect ('standard' O'odham dictionaries would say cuk wa:k) phrase meaning "dark pool", which is precisely the nature of the Santa Cruz River in that spot; as opposed to simply wa:k ("pool") (San Xavier del Bac) which is downstream about 40 km. Note that just upriver from Tubac is Tumacacori (cu' makakol) and downstream is Tucson (cuk ṣon). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.60.159.10 (talk • contribs) 18:41, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

 * Do you have any source for this, esp. for the idea that Tumacacori is from "cuk makakol"? All sources, including O'odham people I asked, seem to agree on "Cemagi Gakolig" as the origin of Tumamacori. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.172.68.237 (talk • contribs) 23:05, 17 May 2019 (UTC)

Rename page
Village of Oak Creek → Village of Oak Creek, Arizona —(Discuss)— Dumb editor's blunder Pete Tillman 20:28, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Discussion
(moved Big Park, Arizona to Village of Oak Creek: This is the name people actually use, and that's on current maps.) Forgot "Arizona", doh. Pete Tillman 20:28, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

 * I went ahead and completed this move; the request was straightforward and uncontroversial. -GTBacchus(talk) 03:44, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Proper name?

 * The following discussion is an archived discussion of the . Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

This article is about a CDP, defined by the Census Bureau. Therefore, it should have the name already given by the Census Bureau, Big Park (see here for proof). Consider Columbia Township, Lorain County, Ohio: there's a community named Columbia Station, Ohio, but the article is named for the township, because it's an article about the township. Nyttend 22:12, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Absolutely. There are other precedents for a move just such as this one, and since the only official entity that exists is the CDP it should bear the name of the CDP.  I contemplated suggesting this move myself when I edited this article a while back (the map I created, in fact, uses the name Big Park and not Oak Creek) but must have got caught up in what I was doing and failed to do so.  So yes, I concur, the article should be under Big Park, Arizona and Village of Oak Creek, Arizona should redirect there.   Ark yan  • (talk) 22:34, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

 * The census bureau may call it "Big Park", but no one who lives there does (I live nearby). Since the article is about a community, it seems reasonable to call the town what the inhabitants call it, and use the Census name as a redirect. Cheers, Pete Tillman 04:58, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment The only official existence this community has is the definition of the Census Bureau. If this were simply an unincorporated area, such as Rimer, Ohio, we'd have to go with what is commonly accepted, but here we have a reliable source for what Big Park is.  If we want to make the article about Oak Creek, we need to delete most of the contents, including all of the population data and most of the geography.  Nyttend 05:30, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Of course we could always just have a small statement to the effect that the village is an unincorporated community within the CDP :) In fact I think there already is.  Ark yan  • (talk) 05:59, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Consider Montrose-Ghent, Ohio in relation either to Montrose, Ohio or Ghent, Ohio: the first article is about the CDP, and the others are about the communities within the CDP. Or for an example rather closer to Big Park and VOC, see Tonto Basin and Punkin Center in Gila County, Arizona: there's one article on the CDP and another on the community.  I've no objection to an article about VOC, but I think that an article with VOC's name should be separate from this article.  Nyttend 12:50, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

Official name: The Census Bureau appears to be the only government agency to use the name "Big Park". For instance, the EPA calls it the "Village of Oak Creek": http://www.epa.gov/fedrgstr/EPA-IMPACT/1996/September/Day-19/pr-16965.html

As does the (federal) Forest Service: http://www.redrockcountry.org/passes-and-permits/index.shtml

As do the state and Yavapai county: http://ww2.co.yavapai.az.us/Resolutions/2005/Res1585-2005.htm

So I don't think it's fair to say that "the only official existence this community has is the definition of the Census Bureau."

As it happens, the Census Bureau's "Big Park" (SFAICT) exactly corresponds to what the federal, state, and county governments (plus everyone who lives there, and in the area) calls the Village of Oak Creek, or VOC. So it would be superfluous to have two articles about the same place. My guess is, the Census Bureau will eventually bow to reality and call it the VOC too. Pete Tillman 20:11, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Nevertheless, this article is about a census-designated place — see the non-introduction part of the article. Who would talk about living in Montrose-Ghent, Ohio?  Would a non-census government office be likely to refer to Montrose-Ghent in articles such as those which you source?  Moreover, do you have a source for the statement that the CDP exactly corresponds to VOC?  Such a statement is OR unless sourced, and therefore cannot properly be the basis for the name of an article.  At any rate, as far as I know every single CDP nationwide has its own article, and it seems rather absurd for this one to be the only exception.  Nyttend 21:45, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

 * "do you have a source for the statement that the CDP exactly corresponds to VOC?"
 * Sure. Here's the CDP map: click on "reference map" (evil Javascript). Compare to, eg,

 * http://local.live.com/default.aspx?cp=34.783149|-111.761017&style=r&lvl=13&v=1

 * --there isn't much private land here, and the old Big Park ranch was subdivided into VOC.

 * We seem to be getting lost in semantics here. To review, the Census Bureau calls the community the "Big Park CDP". Everyone else calls the town the "Village of Oak Creek", or VOC. So long as a search for Big Park, Arizona or Village of Oak Creek, Arizona leads to this article, the user isn't going to care. Our article already explains the relation between the two names. So why not leave the title as it is?

 * The Census Bureau unfortunately picked a name that no-one in the area uses. There's no reason for Wikipedia to make the same error as the Census did. Pete Tillman 00:29, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

 * The point is that this is, and always has been, an article about the CDP, not about VOC. Judging by that map, what's to keep a person who lives five feet outside of the CDP from being a resident of VOC?  As I said before, I seriously doubt that all other CDPs are what people call those areas, and there are articles about the unincorporated places inside those CDPs.  Look at Vienna Center, Ohio: it has "Center", even though apparently it doesn't popularly.  Likewise, Columbia Township, Lorain County, Ohio is commonly called Columbia Station; even its chamber of commerce and historical society use that name, but the article is the township name.  Either one article should exist, under the name of Big Camp, or two articles should exist.  Nyttend 01:44, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

 * From my point of view, the point is, the Census people misnamed the community.
 * Big Park is the name of a topographic feature. The Village of Oak Creek is the name of the town where all the people the Census counted in the CDP live. You cannot live "five feet outside of the CDP", because that is public land. Please have a look at the USGS map, linked at the bottom of the article. They are one and the same place, so it's pointless (and would be confusing) to make two articles. Regards, Pete Tillman 04:55, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Well, if you really can't live in the area if you're not in the CDP, that's definitely something toward the strength of your argument. I'm not used to such places; out here in the farm country of west-central Ohio, the closest we have to restrictions like that are islands in Lake Erie, where you definitely can't live off the edge of the island :-)  My next question: if a couple live on Mundy Drive northwest of the CDP, where do they say they're from?  "We're from VOC" or "We're from near VOC" or something else?  It would also help to find out when the CDP was first "created" or "recognised", something that's sadly missing from every CDP article that I remember seeing.  Nyttend 13:00, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

CDP and VOC "My next question: if a couple live on Mundy Drive northwest of the CDP, where do they say they're from?" That's a good question, that I was rather hoping you wouldn't bring up . OK, here's the Verde Valley School, which is about 3/4 mi NW of the CDP: http://www.vvsaz.org/ Founded in 1946, it long predates the subdivision of Big Park into VOC. As you'll note, they say the school is "located in beautiful Sedona, Arizona..."

Um. All of these places (incl VOC/Big Park) have a Sedona, AZ mailing address (though VOC does have its own post office, and zip code: 86531). At the 1990 Census, the private land around the school was largely undeveloped. Parts of it are now being subdivided, and million-dollar (and up) homes are going up. What these folks say when asked where they live, I don't know. Likely "Sedona", or "near VOC". (Or "move aside, peasant!") But the school land is separated from the Big Park CDP by about a half-mile of National Forest land, so at present there's a "bright line" between (say) Mundy Dr and the CDP/VOC.

So. I propose we leave the article titles and redirects as they are, leave your nice County template as is -- listing, properly, the CDPs by their Census-given names -- and add VOC to the template as an "other place". What do you think? Hopefully, Pete Tillman 22:20, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Thanks for the research! I don't think it's a good idea to link to this article multiple times on the same template: navigational templates are meant to direct readers of one article to related articles — in this case, populated places in Yavapai County.  If we had a template for CDPs in Arizona and another template for other places in Arizona, it might make sense to list it there.  However, since we're talking about only one article and one template, I think such idea would not be the best, leading readers to think that the two links were different places.  However, I think that splitting this into two articles would be appropriate: one upon the CDP, and one upon VOC. Nyttend 22:53, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Well, why not, if you're willing to do the work . If we do, I think both articles should make clear that they are referring to the same place. Perhaps that's the least contentious solution. Cheers, Pete Tillman 01:37, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

I believe, as has been stated above, this is largely a problem of semantics. However the way I see the issue is still as follows - VOC is an unincorporated community that exists within Big Park CDP. Trying to say that their boundaries exactly coincide is inaccurate - by definition unincorporated communities (at least here in Arizona) have no official boundaries as they are not official entities. Arguments that one cannot live in VOC and not live in Big Park (or vice versa) because of what is and is not public land, while technically true, is still original research. One entity, the CDP, has official designated boundaries, while the other does not.

That is the problem I have with the naming scheme in place. The statistics (population, land area, etc) as presented are for the Census designated place as provided by the Census bureau. Wikipedia should reflect that fact, instead of reinterpreting the information to say that those are the demographics for an undefined entity such as VOC. The official name of the entity described by the demographic data in the article is for Big Park CDP. Whether we feel the Census bureau "goofed up" and picked the wrong name is immaterial to the discussion.

Creating a separate article for the CDP and the unincorporated community is an agreeable solution as they are different entities. However I disagree with the requirement that the articles are clear that they refer to the same place (and if we did that it would be in contravention to Wikipedia guidelines to have two articles on what is one single subject) but should rather point out that VOC is an unincorporated community that exists within (or at least in the same place as) Big Park CDP.

I still feel that the superior solution is to have one article, under the Big Park title, but with a (preferably sourced) statement saying that the area is more commonly referred to as VOC by its residents.  Ark yan  • (talk) 04:31, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

Population estimate
I've removed the population estimate because of two problems: contrary to the statement in the article, the source website was copyright 2001 and gave no other evidence of its date, and the boundaries of the area considered by the article are uncertain. If a page from 2001 says that the population "is" a certain number, we can't realistically say that the population was that number in 2007. Moreover, who is to say that those making this estimate envisioned an area with boundaries equal to that of the census-designated place? It would be one thing for a municipality, as municipalities have better-known boundaries, but for a CDP the boundaries aren't marked and are often indefinite. Moreover, the Census Bureau provides no estimates for CDPs; while this by itself isn't enough to make or break the estimate, the lack of an official Census Bureau estimate means that there's no way to replace this local estimate with a sourced Census Bureau estimate. Nyttend (talk) 01:09, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

 * It's no big deal, but you need to recall that for places like BCC, that are "islands" in large areas of public lands, the CDP usually includes all the privately-owned (inhabitable) property nearby. I agree that this website pop estimate is pretty nebulous. Best regards, Pete Tillman (talk) 20:34, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

United Verde?
I'm confused by the many variety of uses of the term "United Verde", and am wondering if someone can please clarify this either here or in the various articles that mention these. Varieties I've seen include:
 * United Verde
 * United Verde Mine
 * United Verde refers to the bigger of the two mines at Jerome; it also is shorthand for the company that owned the mine and for infrastructure associated with that particular mine; for example, the United Verde and Pacific Railway. Finetooth (talk) 19:29, 25 December 2012 (UTC)

 * United Verde mine (redirect to Jerome, Arizona; note missing section)
 * United Verde Extension (redirect to Jerome, Arizona; note missing section)
 * Yes, horribly confusing. Good catch. I forgot to fix the redirects after greatly expanding the Jerome article. I've now redirected them more sensibly, I hope. Finetooth (talk) 19:29, 25 December 2012 (UTC)
 * United Verde mine now redirects to Jerome, Arizona and United Verde Extension to Jerome, Arizona. Finetooth (talk) 19:37, 25 December 2012 (UTC)

 * UVX (probably simply acronym of United Verde Extension)
 * Correct. UVX can be used as a shorthand for the mine or the company that owned the mine, or as an adjective describing infrastructure associated with that particular mine; for example the UVX smelter at Clemenceau. Finetooth (talk) 19:29, 25 December 2012 (UTC)

 * UVX Mining Co.
 * This short list seems to have been created by someone in hopes that the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) sites related to the UVX would eventually have articles of their own. I added a couple of words to the lead sentence in hopes of making it a bit more clear. Finetooth (talk) 19:29, 25 December 2012 (UTC)

Thanks, djr13 (talk) 18:13, 25 December 2012 (UTC)

 * The further confusion, which I hope the Geology section makes clear, is that the two mines were not two parts of the same mine or the same ore body even though their names seem to imply that they were. They were two fabulously rich but separate deposits. Thank you for pointing out these confusions. I hope I have cleared them up, but if you see anything else amiss or have further suggestions, we can certainly make further adjustments. Finetooth (talk) 19:29, 25 December 2012 (UTC)

 * This looks pretty good, I think it solves the confusion I had. Thanks! djr13 (talk) 01:25, 6 February 2013 (UTC)

Good article nomination
I am nominating this article for Good status on behalf of User:Finetooth, who did a fine expansion job. FT does not wish to guide the article through formal review processes.

Median income?
This line makes no sense: "Males had a median income of $23,750 versus $23,750 for females." If they're exactly the same it's not "versus" anything, and I can't find this on the linked census info page. Can anyone clarify? JamesG5 (talk) 19:05, 10 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks for catching this. The stats were added by robots after the 2000 census and again after the 2010 census, then later modified by humans who probably thought that the two sets of similar robot stats included too much detail. The male/female claim that you noticed makes no sense to me either; it may be a typo. I simplified and modified the claims, citing the Census Bureau's American FactFinder tables for Jerome in 2014. To get at these stats about Jerome, key "Jerome town, Arizona" into the FactFinder search engine. That will take you to a page with a lot of other clickable options related to Jerome. The "Income" choice in the menu on the left side has the median income stat, and the "Selected Economic Characteristics" has the poverty stat. There are many more stats for Jerome; I'm not sure which, if any, are important enough to include in a general encyclopedia article. Finetooth (talk) 22:00, 10 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Appreciate the fix! JamesG5 (talk) 04:34, 11 March 2016 (UTC)

Wikipedia is not a reliable source for itself, and the Köppen climate classification page, though interesting and informative, can't be the RS for the Csa claim. Furthermore, I don't think Csa is the correct classification. When I look at the graphic at the top of the Köppen climate classification page, it appears to me that Jerome, which lies east of the Sierra Nevada is in a B region rather than a C region. Weatherbase says the correct classification is BSk (Tropical and Subtropical Steppe Climate). If you agree, let me know, and I'll add this correction as well as an inline citation to Weatherbase. If you have a better source, please let me know. Finetooth (talk) 03:18, 9 July 2019 (UTC)

update
does anyone else feel this article needs at least some updating? Town's water report should be updated, sliding jail needs an update, economy and culture needs an update, median income could be updated if it's available. Therapyisgood (talk) 16:06, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

History section
This is a bit of a mess at present, and unsourced. The standard (and only?) ref for the area is By the Banks of Beaver Creek, by Lightbourn & Lyons, 1989. Unfortunately my copy is overdue! I'll get back to this. Pete Tillman (talk) 20:58, 18 January 2008 (UTC), Rimrock AZ

 * I cleaned up some of the uncited assertions here, but it still needs more work. I note someone is citing an interview they had with a pioneer -- please see WP:Original Research, not allowed in Wikipedia. Thanks, Pete Tillman (talk) 20:44, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

 * Because the OR was not directed specifically toward certain bits of the text, I removed all additions, as we can't know what is and what isn't sourced to the interview. If you own any of these sources, could you improve the article with them?  Nyttend (talk) 04:35, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

Name of city in lead
Please read WikiProject Cities/US Guideline, which clearly states, "Names of the city should be given in each of the city's official languages". Yavapai is not an official language of the city. Neither is French, Russian or Swahili. Because WP:OSE does not make it right.  Onel 5969  TT me 03:33, 30 August 2017 (UTC)
 * I am very familiar with WikiProject Cities/US Guideline. It does indeed state "Name of the city should be given in each of the city's official languages", but it absolutely does NOT state that "Name of the city should NOT be given in any other language", or "Name of the city should ONLY be given in each of the city's official languages". It is an affirmative guideline about what should be included, not what should be excluded. Policy, as it is currently written, does not support the removal of names in additional languages. Yavapai is of great relevance to Mayer, given that the Yavapai were the original inhabitants of Meyer. This is common practice followed across many Wikipedia articles. Albuquerque, New Mexico and Gallup, New Mexico, for example, include the Navajo name for those places although it is not official there. This is very well sourced and I will soon be adding more about the history of Mayer to this article from similar sources. Adding the name back as policy does not require its removal. French, Russian and Swahili don't seem to have much relevance to this conversation. Yavapai is the language that was spoken in Mayer by the majority for hundreds or thousands of years until the 1800s and is still spoken by some in the area today, and English is the language that is spoken by the majority now. What is French, Russian and Swahili's relevance to Mayer? --ಠ_ಠ node.ue ಠ_ಠ (talk) 22:47, 17 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Also, is there any harm caused by the inclusion of this relevant and well-sourced information? What is the rationale for pushing for its removal from Wikipedia, other than the misinterpretation of a guideline? --ಠ_ಠ node.ue ಠ_ಠ (talk) 22:53, 17 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Also, note, from the page you linked (emphasis added):
 * "This WikiProject advice page is not a formal Wikipedia policy or guideline, as it has not been thoroughly vetted by the community."
 * "While it is just a guideline and there are no requirements to follow it in editing..."

--ಠ_ಠ node.ue ಠ_ಠ (talk) 22:59, 17 September 2017 (UTC)
 * When crafting articles, one should look at articles of GA and FA status, and follow those examples. Not a single one of them appears to have a non-official alternate name in the lead. Onus is on you to show an overwhelming need to include this bit of trivia in the lead paragraph. Onel 5969  TT me 04:38, 18 September 2017 (UTC)
