Opening date

As part of research for another wiki, Coasterpedia, I did a bit of digging and found two sources that suggested Disaster Transport (then Avalanche Run) probably didn't open on 11 May 1985. [https://www.newspapers.com/clip/77924763/northern-ohio-a-merry-go-round-of-mirth/ This article] and [https://www.newspapers.com/clip/59142005/avalanche-run-delayed/ this one] are what I found. However, I wasn't able to find a new opening date. I wrote to the RCDB who have now removed 11 May from their entry. I thought I would share these findings here in case anyone can find the new opening date. NemesisAT (talk) 18:47, 3 June 2021 (UTC)

Article review

It has been a while since this article has been reviewed, so I took a look and noticed the following:

  • The "Story" section is far too detailed. MOS:PLOTLENGTH recommends 700 words maximum for films and video games: I do not think this rollar coaster needs the 795 that it currently has.
  • The lead does not summarise all major aspects of the article, like its closure.
  • The "Incident" section is uncited, and the last sentence of "Closure" is uncited.

Should this article go to WP:GAR? Z1720 (talk) 20:45, 23 May 2025 (UTC)
