Thriving tourism industry?

...[edit]

Yeah. Emo is home to a large number of fishing and hunting camps that attract large numbers of tourists. While the town proper is pretty small, the geographical area that it covers it quite large, and it includes the townships of Dance, Lash, Aylsworth, and a bunch of others. North of Emo is all lake country where the 'mericans go fishing. It also has the benefit of sitting along a main transportation corridor between Thunder Bay and Winnipeg.

Does this really belong here?[edit]

"Emo, Ontario is often referenced in jokes comparing Emo, the town, to "Emo music and culture" . One joke asks whether the grass in Emo cuts itself."

Although I can't help but find it a bit humourous, the last line of this article doesn't sound very encyclopedic. Does it really belong in this article?--174.88.109.92 (talk) 00:27, 7 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It's original research, so no.vıd ıoman 03:39, 7 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. I've removed it. --66.18.233.247 (talk) 05:16, 7 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Article content merge[edit]

Just notifying that I have merged relevant content from the Orphan article Emo Walleye Classic into this article. As this is the only article that linked to it, and it occurs in this town, this seemed the logical place to merge it. (Permalink here.)

The Emo Walleye Classic article had been tagged for Notability since April 2009, and after almost no changes since its creation, and a Google search that basically only turned up links back to the tournament homepage and it's Facebook and Twitter pages, not to reliable secondary sources, I'm not convinced of its notability. If this changes in the future and the tournament becomes significant enough to justify having its own page with substantial reliable secondary sources, then someone can go back to the redirect and spin-off a new article again. --jjron (talk) 16:50, 22 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
