Image

The Current image states its from the kentucky side but it is from the Indiana if you look at the picture its from the upstream side on the Indiana Shore. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.138.152.157 (talk) 19:17, 8 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Realistic goal

I'd like to see this article get to Good article status by this year's event. I think we'll see a spike of edits at that time, and presumably, readers. Plus it's good to have goals anyway. I think we're close, the main thing we need is a bit of cleanup, references, and maybe some more pictures (especially non-fair use ones, if anyone happens to have some floating around). I'll be making a few passes through the article in the near future. --W.marsh 22:10, 13 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, and I'll be looking for any images--Dp462090 22:30, 13 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I've found a picture, but I'm having trouble finding a place for it, it's just that the article is too short for two pictures, so if anyone can find a place for it.--Dp462090 22:44, 13 March 2006 (UTC) Edit: found a spot, and another picture.--Dp462090 01:48, 19 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ultimately I'd like to have free images in the article (e.g. ones we've taken ourselves and released under the GPL or into public domain). Of course given the difficulty of night photography and the nature of the event, it might be hard to get quality pictures under those licenses. Also, I'm trying to get attendance totals up, which I think is useful. A bit more information about the scale and technical side of the show might be good, too, and its impact on the community, and its role in the festival. Just some ideas... I'll probably get around to it eventually. --W.marsh 02:01, 19 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'll help as best as I can, being an expatriate of Kentucky now editing a newspaper just outside of Birmingham, Alabama. Boy, was I homesick for Thunder this year!. Realkyhick 15:10, 24 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I remember reading that the fireworks have permanently scared away a huge migrant bird population that used to be around Shiipingport. Are there any sources we could find to back this up?--Bedford 15:21, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"TV 24"

I have removed content referring to "TV24" from this article. There are no reliable sources anywhere that indicate there is any entity called "TV 24" from Illinois that broadcasts Thunder over six stations. The only online mentions come from Wiki-scrape sites. No official Thunder sites mention this station (or whatever it is) in any form. It looks to be vandalism. If you find otherwise, feel free to comment and revert my deletions.
