To do: Editing

Any pictures, at all, would be very useful (and maps)

What can I improveRandalyRandaly

more pictures of the Center and its exhibits, preferably loaded up in Wikipedia Commons with no copyright restrictions. Also, the article needs to be sourced from secondary sources (i.e. not the Atlanta History Center website). The article should read like a encyclpedia entry rather than an advertisement for the center. Basically, it would ve nice to get this article to "good article" status as outlined in Wikipedia:What is a good article?. That's my $.02.--Roswell native 23:43, 21 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hmmmm... I do have an acount, but I seem to log in and out at random. I was logged in before I posted those (I think). It must be a server glitch.Randaly 21:44, 22 February 2007 (UTC)Randaly[reply]

Criticisms

The criticisms section is completely subjective opinion and not backed up by fact at all. IMO not really meeting verifiability criterion. I just cleaned up some grammar but this article really needs a more substantial rewrite. 06:14, 17 January 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Museumfreak (talk • contribs)

I agree and think the "Criticisms", "Visiting Information" and "Accessibility" sections all should be removed per Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not#TEXT - this is an encyclopedia not a travel guide. Any objections? --Roswell native (talk) 14:40, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Removed the three sections I mentioned above as no one has stated any objections over the last week. --Roswell native (talk) 00:25, 25 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
