editThis article is full of broad, sweeping generalizations that are horoscope-like in their vagueness and unverifiability. I do not see how this can be taken seriously as an encyclopedia article. CosineKitty (talk) 01:53, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
Problems
editThis needs to be rewritten or deleted, something. Seeing as though it has no sources. Like CosineKitty said above, it has many problems. For one, at the bottom it says four different peoples had a significant impact on Arizona's culture. First was the natives (or incorrectly "Indians" as the article says), which would be correct, as well as the Mexican influence, but there were plenty on non-Texans who came to Arizona and the African-American population has always been very small, up until hurricanes Katrina and Rita (so it would seem). The article says that Texans brought many blacks to Arizona, suggesting that they were slaves but there were never any African slaves within the modern confines of AZ (it was all mostly frontier back then), maybe in southern New Mexico but not in AZ. Most of the blacks in AZ during the Old West period were Buffalo Soldiers.--$1LENCE D00600D (talk) 21:19, 3 November 2011 (UTC)
