Talk:Lake Mills, Wisconsin

April 1, 2011, additions

Numerous edits were made to this page on April 1, 2011, by Katieo53551 that are copied from other sources. These edits were reversed by XLinkBot because they are internally unreferenced, copied sources that link to a host of separate promotional web sites. Thereafter, the edits were reinstated by Katieo53551 despite the Bot action. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a site for creating free advertising for or promotional pages on a given subject. As such, the information provided on a subject's page needs to remain objective and must consist of general information. The information added by Katieo53551 seems to cross that line and reads more like something copied from a community, tourism, or chamber of commerce promotional web site. It either needs to be edited substantially and internally referenced to comply with Wikipedia's format, or it needs to be reversed. SWMNPoliSciProject (talk) 20:16, 01 April 2011 (UTC)

I agree with SWMNPoliSciProject that the recent additions read like free advertisement. Therefore, I reverse the changes. Please take any changes, etc., to this talk page before adding this back on. Thank you-RFD (talk) 11:03, 2 April 2011 (UTC)

Where on the map?

I find a map of Wisconsin with its county lines, and "Location of Lake Mills within Wisconsin", but there is no location shown for such. Please fix. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.63.16.20 (talk) 14:44, 12 April 2013 (UTC)

Recent Edits

Template:Ping & Template:Ping any thoughts regarding the recent edits to the page notably the Economy and Restaurants sections? I am not sure every municipality with a Subway or McDonalds needs mention of that fact for example. -- Dolotta (talk) 23:15, 24 April 2020 (UTC)

• Lets try this again, Orangemike -- Dolotta (talk) 23:17, 24 April 2020 (UTC)

• I agree with Orangemike's edits. I'd include: 1) businesses with articles that proved their notability, and 2) newspapers (and other mass media like TV/radio). Royalbroil 11:45, 25 April 2020 (UTC)

• Thanks for both of your insights. It looks much better! -- Dolotta (talk) 12:27, 25 April 2020 (UTC)
