Chicago 1980s Punk Bands

edit

The Barbie Army webpage lists the following bands from the 1980s: Green, Precious Wax Drippings, Material Issue, I.D. Under, Sponge, Friends of Betty, Bhang Revival, Eisenhowers, Tiddleywinks, Lert Somboon Festival of Love, Algebra Suicide, Bald Cow, Dead Steel Mill, Slugs, Ono, Pile of Cows, Research Defense Squad, Fang Beach, The Sapphires, Maestro Subgum and the Whole, No Empathy, Sleepy Silvers, The Mystery Girls, Farmers, Moondogs, Joan Baby, The Clams, Defoliants, Slammin' Watusis. I don't know how long the Barbie Army web page will last, so probably this should get it's own page, but I haven't got time just now... (it seems fairly inappropriate / disproportionate to put all that into the main culture article!) --Jaibe 19:12, 27 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

Cuisine

edit

Someone should write Cuisine of Chicago to give proper space for all the fine fare of this city! Check out Cuisine of New York City... – Freechild (¡!¡!¡!¡) 14:39, 24 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Conserning the Explanation of the Chicago Hotdog: -the frasing 'all-beef wiener' is wrong by definition since the 'wiener' is historicaly a mixed-meat version of the Frankfurter. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 175.139.205.60 (talk) 08:22, 8 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

Atrocious spelling aside, I think you need to read this article. The North American hotdog makes little if any distinction anymore and has no official appellation controlee... and your case is still dependent upon which version of the frankfurter you speak of, because there are more than one. Again... read the Vienna sausage article. Wiener originally meant a style of sausage from Vienna (Wien in German). Everything else once it hit modernity (and America) is arbitrary.

Fair use rationale for Image:Secondcity.jpg

edit
 

Image:Secondcity.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Wrigleyville

edit

The article made it seem like all of the neighborhood of lakeview is known as wrigleyville. I changed it to say that the area of the neighborhood near the field is known as wrigleyville. I don't have a reference for this, but I live there and know its true, and im sure there's some reference out there somewhere if anyone wants to find it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 38.115.160.76 (talk) 17:06, 6 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

Notable Chicago metal, other bands

edit

Including Nachtmystium, Minsk, Lair of the Minotaur, Pelican, Russian Circles, Oppressor, Yakuza . . . so on, so on. May wish to include a few, along with the bits on punk, indie, etc. Though Russian Circles may not belong in "metal," just brainstorming some random notable Chicago bands. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.9.9.254 (talk) 11:14, 12 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

Crown Fountain

edit

The image of Crown Fountain was incorrectly labeled as Buckingham Fountain, so I corrected it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 147.4.141.46 (talk) 21:09, 2 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Malort

edit

Should an addition to the Food and drink section include malort? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.148.80.235 (talk) 06:14, 8 June 2013 (UTC)Reply

I'm down with that. --~E$ (talk) 21:30, 17 July 2014 (UTC)Reply

Chicago style popcorn

edit

Despite the advertising on the GH Cretor, Candyland, and other bags, there's nothing native to Chicago about mixing caramel and cheese popcorns.

Should Tamale Guy be in here?

edit

Tamale Guy is locally famous, just want to discuss the idea? Victor Grigas (talk) 16:07, 23 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

That's an interesting idea, but... I'm thinking that there are many persons, places, and things that are part of the culture of Chicago -- or at least the popular culture of Chicago -- that, while worthwhile and interesting, should be left out of the article, so that it doesn't become too long to navigate comfortably. I'd say that Tamale Guy is one of them. I'd be open to further discussion, though. Mudwater (Talk) 22:59, 23 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Novels and films

edit

Recently some IP editors added sections to this article listing novels and films set in Chicago. I'm going to take those back out. They don't belong here, they belong in the List of fiction set in Chicago article. Mudwater (Talk) 20:05, 14 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

Inventions section

edit

I'm removing the Inventions section of the article. I don't think that it helps explain the culture of Chicago. Also, some of the entries are pretty questionable. Some, like the brownie, might not have actually been invented in Chicago. Others, like the Playboy Club, are less an invention and more a commercial enterprise. Additionally, a list like this tends to accumulate a clutter of even more questionable entries. So, I think the whole thing should be left out. I'd be open to further discussion, though.
