Why such low ratings for this article? It sums up the park's place in the New Orleans economy nicely as well as having up to date information on how Katrina affected it and what (if any) contributions the park will have to rebuilding New Orleans as a whole. I'd argue this is at least a B class article of mid importance. Rtphokie 11:23, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
Six Flags Inc. has released no official statements about closing down the park forever. Personally, I don't think they will, either. Six Flags learned from AstroWorld that the cost of demolition can be just as expensive as keeping it open, if not more. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Johnnywalterboy ( talk • contribs) 06:29, 13 August 2007
I am not sure if you have asked to have this article rated, but compared to other amusement park articles, I would say it is closer to a start than a B (just my opinion). Articles can be assessed at different classes for different project. The article needs to have headers ("History," "Attractions," etc.) to make it easier to find things and more inline references to support statements about the park. Good work so far, but a B is a good rating and the highest that can be awarded outside of the formal review process. To be classified as a "GA" (good article), "A" or "FA" (Featured Article), you must nominate the article (see Wikipedia:Good articles). -- Tinned Elk 23:56, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

I have closed and archived a malformed FAC that I found on this page, that was not submitted to WP:FAC. The article is uncited, has a cleanup tag, and is mostly lists; a peer review is a better place to get feedback on how to improve the article. SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 01:02, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
I noticed that Six Flags New Orleans was recently taken off the official Six Flags website. It previously said that the company was sorting out insurance issues with investors due to Hurricane Katrina. I haven't found whether the rides will be relocated or scrapped.

Six Flags is removing items belonging to the City? That is a pretty powerful statement and needs a citation. This article definitely needs a lot more citations. -- Mjrmtg ( talk) 10:19, 22 January 2010 (UTC)

"The lease clearly indicates [items being removed] belong to the City" It does? This is a legal interpretation well beyond the scope or purpose of this article. Suggest it be removed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.162.212.41 ( talk) 22:26, 3 July 2010 (UTC)
I agree and will remove the statement. J.Rly 02:26, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
Visiting New Orleans today I had an opportunity to drive by the remains of Six Flags New Orleans. I saw that the sign shown in the photo ( [1]) is still standing, though the "Six Flags" part is faded to mostly white. I'm not sure if the text in the article was referring to another sign, but regardless, it should probably be clarified with a cited source or rewritten. kcowolf ( talk) 04:22, 29 May 2013 (UTC)

Hello! This is a note to let the editors of this article know that File:Aerial view of SFNO after Hurricane Katrina edit.jpg will be appearing as picture of the day on October 17, 2015.

I removed the mention ( [3]) of a proposed redevelopment from the article as the edit claimed it was "announced", when it was only proposed. However, I'm curious to know how notable everyone thinks a proposed redevelopment is until there is some indication it's actually being considered by someone other than the proposer. The article is here: http://www.nola.com/business/index.ssf/2016/04/six_flags_scurlock_epcot.html. Any thoughts? kcowolf ( talk) 00:54, 14 April 2016 (UTC)

It would be nice to have an external link to the current owner. I would like to suggest that a concession business model that grants locals rights to open their own small business to attract customers. It seems the City of New Orleans is waiting for a Goliath to save the site when a city of Davids is yearning to work there. Let them come and be themselves. Many Chinese and Korean sites operate profitably and successfully drawing crowds daily and nightly. In the “Closed for Storm” documentary, a woman even stated she wanted the citizens to participate. Good idea. Grant concessions and bring real culture to the site. Real musicians. Real chefs. Real artists. Real people. 2600:4040:207D:2000:C59A:7443:65A1:E9CA ( talk) 19:29, 25 December 2022 (UTC)
