Wondering how to edit this U.S. City Entry?
The WikiProject U.S. Cities standards might help.

Too much UAFS detail

The coverage of UAFS in this article is basically the entire History section from the UAFS article. This is way too much detail for a city page--at most it should mention average enrollment, popular majors, performing arts or sporting venues, and any awards or rankings the university has received recently.

"Two" county seats

There is interesting history concerning the fact that Sebastian County has two county seats. I even find it amazing that someone hasn't wondered about this. When Sebastian County was formed it was assumed that Fort Smith would be the county seat. Somehow Greenwood was chosen and a battle ensued, legally and otherwise, that lasted for years before and then again after the Civil War. I guess I will explore adding this to the Sebastian County article but it is interesting enough to have mention here since it is mentioned in the opening sentence of the lead.

Forgotten stuff

There's also the Fort Smith Little Theater, which should've been mentioned under the Dance and Theater section. And there's First Lutheran School, which should've been placed under private schools. It's an elementary school. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.184.232.180 (talk) 02:44, 6 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
