Will do. Y E ^Pacific ^Hurricane 07:09, 27 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

"Marysville is a city in Snohomish County, Washington, United States. It is the second-largest city in the county after Everett, with a population of 60,020 in the 2010 U.S. census." could these two sentences be combined? YE ^Pacific ^Hurricane 06:08, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- I'd prefer to leave them separate, given that the first is a self-contained statement and the second leads into the rest of the paragraph. Should I merge the first sentence with some of the location information instead?
  - Yes. YE ^Pacific ^Hurricane 06:40, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    - Y Done.
"What is a third/fourth class city? YE ^Pacific ^Hurricane 06:08, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Y Added a link to the definition, but it's the classification system for cities used by the state government that determines governance and organization.
"The NASCAR site was later pitched as a candidate for a new University of Washington satellite campus (known as UW North Sound) in the late 2000s,[36] competing with downtown Everett,[37] before the project was put on hold in 2008 and cancelled in 2011.[38][39]" why was it put on hold and cancelled? YE ^Pacific ^Hurricane 06:08, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Y Added some clarification.
Anything regarding climate? YE ^Pacific ^Hurricane 06:08, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- N Marysville does not have climate data of its own and would need to rely on data from Arlington's airport or Everett, which both vary slightly from the city.
Why are population changes pre-1950 mentioned in the history and ones post-1950 mentioned in the demographic section? YE ^Pacific ^Hurricane 06:08, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- I felt it was more appropriate to have historic population growth in the history section, and modern-day growth in the demographics section, which is still subject to change. Should I do some shuffling/mixing of the two?
Avoid WP:OVERLINK in the demographics section please. YE ^Pacific ^Hurricane 06:08, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Y Done.
"Marysville ranks eighth among Washington cities for commute times, with an average commute of approximately 30 minutes.[70][144]" eighth highest or eighth lowest? YE ^Pacific ^Hurricane 06:08, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Y Clarified it as eighth-longest.

@Yellow Evan: Thanks for the review. I think I've answered the points you've raised. Sounder Bruce 06:33, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
