This article was a mess[edit]

This article was very problematic for several reasons. 1. The article was written like an advertisement. For example, the article used to say that The Walper Hotel "Is a fine example of turn of the century hotel architecture." There's really no need to explain how that looks like something you'd find in an advertisement. 2. The sources weren't reliable. Out of the four references, two of them were from the Local Wiki, which, like Wikipedia, is not a source itself and is instead a collection of sources. one of them was from the Walper website itself, which is a primary source. Now one primary source would be fine mixed with several independent reliable secondary sources, but the only secondary source was Historic Canada, which is a good source, so I kept it in the article, but the problem was that there were not other secondary sources along with it. So I added a book source and two CBC articles, which are all secondary. 3. The article might not be notable enough. I'm tempted to delete the article, but since I was able to find a few secondary sources, I will hold on that thought. 4. The article needs to be linked to more Wikipedia articles. Pretty self-explainitory. That's all I have to say for now. Bye! 344917661X (talk) May 21, 2018 —Preceding undated comment added 20:08, 21 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
