[edit] Well It's Supposed To Be There

I live in Sioux Falls and see downtown every day. Have you never been past downtown or seen it from that angle?

[edit] That's a big image

And I'm not sure that it does a good job of describing anything in Sioux Falls. It's cool looking, the way they made the photo, but I just drove past that place 10 minutes ago and it doesn't look anything like that... David Bergan 02:44, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] demographics revision

Unless I for some reason see any objections, I will likely take out the last paragraph in the demographics section, because none of the statements have anything to do with demographics. The Michelangelo thing is redundant, and the Money-Ryder bits should go under history. User:AlexiusHoratius 01:00 24 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Other revision suggestions

I was thinking about combining the 'major companies' and 'shopping' sections into an 'economy' section, as is done in most other articles about cities.

Also, many statements here sound as though they come from a Chamber of Commerce publication, such as the one about SF being "a healthy and vibrant community" or "Sioux Falls is the shopping destination of the central plains". I am unsure what the "central plains" even means, and residents of Chicago, Kansas City, or the Twin Cities would likely disagree with that statement. AlexiusHoratius 20:15, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

I would like to insert a link to Center for Earth Resources Observation and Science (the EROS Center), but I cannot see where it would fit within the structure of this article. It is "government," but Sioux Falls has no section for government. (It's akso a major element of the local economy (600 employees), but it does not fit in "Major companies" because it is not a company.) --orlady 19:15, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
