I just replaced "unassessed" status by Start quality rating for this article, for both WP:NRHP and WP:NY. It could be higher, but it is at least Start, IMO. doncram 21:30, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
I beg to differ with doncram on his recent change to name of the hisoric district. The underlying National Register listing is for Chautauqua Institution Historic District. [1] Anyway it better describes the district, since even just locally Chautauqua refers to many things: the county, the town, the lake, the post office, the institution, the hamlet (which extends outside the gate), etc. And yes, I spent 4 summers on the grounds. clariosophic ( talk) 12:05, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

A non-logged in user added the following statement to the article, which another editor or I will strike from the article because it is not encyclopedic and is not sourced. The statement was: "They do need manners in the local community where they treat the locals rudely. There is a real town and gown situaltion which makes the opening of the season down right unpleasant." I am not averse to the article describing "town vs. gown" issues in the article if there are adequate, reliable sources such as local newspaper articles available. However, my quick Google News searches on "Chautauqua Institution town" and "Chautauqua Institution" bring up local newspaper articles about concerts and speakers at the Chautauqua, but no examples of any issues between locals and the Chautauqua. So, while the non-logged-in user may have valid complaints, those seem not to be Wikipedia-notable. (This is way off-topic for wikipedia: Perhaps you need to write letters to the editor of local newspapers, or raise your complaints in some other venue?) doncram ( talk) 19:53, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
Getting the distinct impression that Wikipedia does not care about present day or the history of the Chautauqua. That's sad. Wikipedia obviously has an agenda. If your intention is to redefine what a Chautauqua is then I would suggest all references and information about all existing Chautauqua's be removed from Wikipedia entirely. May I suggest a new topic, say the dawn of multicultural socialism. That should keep you entertained for a while. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.118.118.231 ( talk) 04:49, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

I just reverted an edit by the internet archive bot. It replaced a valid google books link with an inferior archive.org link. Philoserf ( talk) 22:51, 25 February 2020 (UTC)
