The state of Washington has a community and a state park named "Pacific Beach". I'm sure that general a term will be the name of other notable places as well. Jonathunder 02:13, 2005 Mar 26 (UTC)
Yeah, I thought so too, but even seeking "Pacific Beach" -"san diego" -california -washington -"pacific beach hotel" -ca -wa still gets only the SD neighborhood and the WA community (which cann be handled with top-of-page-disambiguation. Admittedly, my biggest issue is that I believe the move proposal was for invalid reasons. Niteowlneils 19:02, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Decision

[edit]

It looks like Pacific Beach, San Diego should be the new name. For the moment I won't do it myself – anyone can do it as it currently doesn't exist. violet/riga (t) 21:28, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Not sure where to put this, but I removed external links because there was only one link to a commercial site with no useful information--just a front to sell hotel rooms and vacations. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.19.236.160 (talk) 20:35, 17 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Marijuana

[edit]

The phrase suggesting it is generally acceptable to smoke marijuana anywhere in public in the city should be removed. I'm not sure how that ended up in the section, but I would have to disagree with that statement. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ace23NY (talkcontribs) 22:17, 8 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Any citations for Pacific Beach, San Diego, California name?

[edit]

Besides the current undocumented, unprofessional and unconventional convention of naming city community article names in Wikipedia according to the bizarre [[community, city, state]] format, is there any reason for this article to be named Pacific Beach, San Diego, California? In particular, are there any citations of official or common usage references to Pacific Beach with this name? --Serge 00:59, 11 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Reword

[edit]

"Pacifc Beach tends to cater towards a younger, more college-oriented crowd compared to downtown San Diego. Dress codes are rarely enforced, if at all." Downtown has many up-scale bars, clubs, and restaurants--some with strict dress codes. I would think people who spend more money at nicer clubs and bars would be more college educated than pacific beach (because most people who make enough money to party at nice places are usually college educated). Moreover, there are more 'dive bars' in pacific beach than in downtown. I suggest re-phrasing it to say that pacific beach has more college students rather than college oriented. I used to live downtown and if you are not living in east village you have to be college oriented/educated, else how are you going to afford to pay for the high rent?

Installing Ashtrays to Discourage Smoking?

[edit]

"To help promote a new smoke-free environment, the Surfrider Foundation is installing 30 outdoor ashtrays along Ocean Beach and soon Pacific Beach." Wait, doesn't that mean people will have somewhere to smoke? It kind of implies that smoking is allowed, and possibly even encouraged...?

Bars and Nightlife

[edit]

This section is getting dangerously close to violating WP:NOTTRAVEL. Try not to go overboard. – Wdfarmer (talk) 05:17, 6 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
