I understand that the University has its own very good page, but does it not have a very significant impact on the town? It is not mentioned in any of the modern account of the town, nor is it internally linked. It is only present in the pictures and an external link. I'm not qualified to fix this, but I think it's a very substantial issue with the article. Boycottfood ( talk) 22:06, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
The article is a very good start, and I particularly like the infobox photo (nice work!). But it is largely incomplete, and does not meet the completeness requirement of the GA criteria. There are also insufficient reference citations as well, particularly in the history section (at the beginning) and the demographics section. I would recommend taking a look at the template/guideline WP:USCITY, and it will be quite clear of the information that is missing from the article (economy, climate, culture, government, education, transportation, etc). The prose is overall pretty good, but it couldn't hurt to review the wikipedia manual of style; most notably, there's quite a few unnecessarily bolded words in the article that could be fixed. WP:LEAD would provide useful tips on improving the introductory section. The formatting of references seems ok (although there's just not enough references). Review WP:CITE and WP:V for more information on this. Two good examples of existing GAs that you might take a look at are Flagstaff, Arizona and Richmond, Virginia. Good luck!

Attention: Geneseor village and the Town of Geneseo are TWO different places. This merger was unjustified and is inconsistent with how the the political entities of the state are recorded in Wikipedia. It is my intention to undo this harm. Stepp-Wulf ( talk) 02:07, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
To be clear, they are separate in terms of governing bodies, but they are not "separate municipalities" in the vernacular. They are overlapping jurisdictions who fill differing governmental roles. The Village of Geneseo is still within the jurisdiction of the Town (and within its boundaries, not external to them)for some matters, in the same manner that the Town is within the jurisidction of the County, State, and so on. Just picking nits:) Jbower47 ( talk) 20:33, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
The articles for the village of Tully and the town of Tully were merged ( Tully, New York), so this article is not the only one of its kind. If you want the article split so badly, why not simply propose it and get your own consensus? -- JBC3 ( talk) 15:09, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
