Talk:Columbus, Nebraska

Untitled

Why is there a business advertisement on this page? Do advertisements fall within the spirit behind Wikipedia.org ?

The line I am bringing to discussion is: Connecting Point Computer Service Center and Retail Store

I was thinking that it my be informative to have a list of bars and other places of recreation (i.e. the bowling alleys)perhaps with reviews or maybe just a short description of the atmosphere at those places. Could be helpful to travellers looking for something to do in Columbus or for natives looking for a new scene. Perahps not appropriate in this article but perhaps a link to a seperate article. Any opinions?

Spam?

The first paragraph in "Attractions" seems rather spamsome to me. Phrases like "Horse racing fans can also enjoy..." and "...air-conditioned clubhouse" seem more promotional than informative. Absent strong arguments otherwise, I think that this should be pared down considerably, including removal of the external link. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ammodramus (talk • contribs) 17:56, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
