I am in the process of writing an encyclopedic entry covering this hospital. Please do not delete it, it is currently being worked on. Newnew3 (talk) 17:26, 23 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

This reads like a very long press release. The citations are almost completely worthless. Only one out of eleven even mentions St. Francis on the page listed, and from that we can establish merely that they exist and are accredited by the Joint Commission (whatever that is). I especially enjoyed the section about the hospital's wonderful charitable work, completely unsourced except until we learn that the hospital, or rather their employees, gave to the united way, followed by an assertion that the UW does good stuff, sourced to the UW. That's just making a mockery of the article by drawing attention to the fact that almost every positive statement about the hospital, what the article is supposed to be about, is unsourced. Clearly the authors know about citing sources, they just chose to only use this on irrelevant claims, like what some piece of medical technology is for (but not that the hospital has one), or that what the Army Reserve is (but not that the person named is associated with either the USAR or the hospital). This article is a complete joke. It makes both Wikipedia and St Francis look pathetic and it needs to be completely rewritten in order to become a respectable article. 99.164.32.24 (talk) 18:16, 19 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
