The caption under the Saginaw library says it was "built" by Van Brunt & Howe of Boston. Van Brunt & Howe was an important architectural firm. Were they also the builders? I think the word "designed" might replace "built". |

This section has gotten rather long. It makes sense to create a separate article. -- CrazyElk 20:31, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
This article reads like a news story and not an encylopedia. It should be split into separate catagories Asher196
Writing to offer the idea to include sports accolades, e.g. Saginaw Sting CIFL Champions 2008. Laconicdos ( talk)Laconicdos —Preceding undated comment added 18:07, 26 April 2009 (UTC).
I am going to take a crack at a rewrite here. This article in its current form can at best be described as "a lot of good ideas that does not flow together" and at worst "a rambling wreck that needs to have quite a bit jettisoned".
Once I get something together, I am going to be bold and post it. spryde | talk 15:12, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
Have at it. I've been thinking about doing the same for a while, but I'm just too lazy. Asher196 ( talk) 20:29, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
Ok, I think we are close. Most of the items here have at least one reference, the basic format is there (thanks BKonrad!), and I don't see anything really un-encyclopedic. I am going to take my list of notes and put a todo list on the top of this page. spryde | talk 14:34, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
Should there be a list, and should they include the following:
I just moved to Saginaw and would like to help with this section. ThorRazz 23:51, 14 December 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by ThorRazz ( talk • contribs)
Additionally, does the following site exist, and should it be noted: Children's Zoo at Celebration Square Saginaw 49 [2] There seem to be lots of other items listed there that haven't made their way into this article. Just asking. 7&6=thirteen ( talk) 03:27, 22 February 2008 (UTC)Stan
Whoever did the table on the highways, I wanted to note that it looks really good. Nice addition to the article, IMHO. 7&6=thirteen ( talk) 13:22, 18 April 2008 (UTC)Stan
The websites referenced with the data on the crime statistics do not appear to be valid reference sources. Also the Saginaw News article on the arsons for Devil's Night is no longer apart of the MLive archives. Until someone can present data from a valid source (i.e. state or federal government website) I will remove this section as there may be a possibility that some of the facts might be fudged.

You are correct, the Saginaw News article is unreliable for two reasons. 1) The FBI data does not list Saginaw in its data. and 2) The FBI website cautions using its data to rank cities. As the FBI website says:
This is exactly the error made by Gus Burns in his Saginaw News article, and thus it doesn't pass as a reliable source, per WP:Reliable (and the FBI!). Green Cardamom ( talk) 19:20, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
I have updated the population for the city of Saginaw as the U.S. Census Bureau has released 2008 figures for cities. It appears the city has declined about another 1,000 people over the year according to their estimates. Mrhercli89 ( talk) 21:16, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
FWIW, I have no recollection of doing this. I can't explain it, other than I may have clicked on the wrong line. Sorry for the confusion. 7&6=thirteen ( ☎) 00:15, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
How is the name of the city pronounced? I see the information was there before, but it was deleted. Was it wrong? 68.6.90.245 ( talk) 21:35, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
