Talk:Kansas City, Kansas

Quindaro?

Quindaro_Townsite might deserve mention in history or as a neighborhood? Anyone for finding a map of the neighborhoods? 2605:6000:3D13:1300:45C4:9A6E:6F7B:14DF (talk) 05:24, 27 August 2017 (UTC)

Proposed merge of Neighborhoods of Kansas City, Kansas into Kansas City, Kansas

A city of 100,000 is probably not big enough to justify a separate article on neighborhoods. Especially as it stands with only one source. Suggested merge list to main city article. Grey Wanderer (talk) 16:51, 25 April 2022 (UTC)

Done, page was a duplicate. Reywas92^Talk 02:47, 22 June 2022 (UTC)

Whitewashing the police by removing Golubski

@Schierbecker: Removing the section on "Golubski scandal" is POV editing. I'm reverting your deletion of that section. DavidMCEddy (talk) 16:24, 22 June 2024 (UTC)

No, it's not POV editing. It's undue weight and recentism. Perhaps the KC Police Department article can be spun off and it can be mentioned there. Schierbecker (talk) 21:44, 23 June 2024 (UTC)

I would argue that it is important to include because it was a federal trial that revolved around allegations of police misconduct over the course of decades. I see that @HapHaxion just added an undue weight banner. So I am curious as to HapHaxion's thoughts are on the matter. I think it is pretty neutral in tone and content but I am curious what other editors thoughts are on the subject since the last time this was discussed was back in June. Middle Mac CJM (talk) 17:02, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

Completely undue. This article is about a city, not a police force. Remove it. Magnolia677 (talk) 18:02, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

I mean the police force is a part of the city's government. I feel that a police force is often very integrated within a city. Just as much as the parks department and the parks within a city are notable. Middle Mac CJM (talk) 20:22, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

WP:USCITIES is the guideline for US cities. This sort of out-of-scope content is not appropriate. Magnolia677 (talk) 21:50, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

I looked at the guidelines and I agree @Magnolia677! I'm relatively new here and so I appreciate the help! I will remove the scandal section entirely and move it to the Kansas City Police Department Article. Middle Mac CJM (talk) 17:58, 7 December 2024 (UTC)

I'd wait a few days for a clear consensus. Also, Kansas City Police Department (Kansas) doesn't have an article. Magnolia677 (talk) 18:06, 7 December 2024 (UTC)

Whoops, my bad. I'll revert my edit Middle Mac CJM (talk) 18:08, 7 December 2024 (UTC)
