Use of "Theatre"

According to Dollywood's website, their correct spelling of theater is theatre. I mistakenly changed them when I noticed another spelling error. All of the "theaters" have been changed back to their correct "re" spelling.Rhodesgomer (talk) 07:14, 13 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

In 2012, Dollywood began referring to "theater" instead of the long-used "theatre." Dollywood's website reflects this. I have updated article accordingly. JLeach87 (talk) 04:25, 11 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Festival Section

Changed an all Bold line, and changed the dates for the 'festival of nations' to the 2012 dates.

Gay Days

It might be worth mentioning Gay Days in the article. I found some information about them online but did not spend enough time to determine if they were notable.

Not Written in Neutral POV

I feel that this article, or at least significant parts of it, are in need of a rewrite. There are many embellishments, superlatives, and ads ("presented by Humana"), hindering its readability. It's clear whoever wrote this was an employee or someone else with an interest. I don't know where to start with edits. There are too many. 2600:6C50:800:460E:AF8A:CD82:472D:909F (talk) 02:21, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
