Cedar Point and Cedar Fair as a whole were not acquired by Six Flags in 2014, instead 2024. (typo) 72.196.18.85 (talk) 00:50, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Done – Fixed, thanks. By the way, neither Six Flags nor Cedar Fair were acquired. They merged in what was called a "merger of equals", forming a new company that kept the Six Flags name. This was previously discussed at Talk:Six Flags (1961–2024)#Survey #2. --GoneIn60 (talk) 01:23, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The Top Thrill 2 coaster soft opened on May 4, and closed a few days later due to a mechanical modification. It will never fully reopen at all. Can you please add it to the timeline? Here is the source.[1] 2601:40A:8400:1820:D10:BB0E:6522:EB75 (talk) 23:32, 23 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Partly done: I updated the information that was reported in the source, notably that it is expected to reopen in 2025 (not that it will never fully reopen at all) as you asserted. If you found that in another source feel free to re-request. Bestagon ⬡ 17:24, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There is a few pieces of wrong information in this article, I want to fix that. Down below is a list of wrong information or information that should be edited.

1: Cedar Point has 18, not 17 roller coasters. On the Wikipedia page it says 17. This should be changed to 18 2: Cedar Point has 7 family rides, not 8. On the Wikipedia page it says 8 family rides. This should be changed to 7. 3: Cedar Point technically has two water rides while the Wikipedia page only says there is 1. Cedar Point has Thunder Canyon and Snake River Falls (which closed on September 2nd, 2024) but should be added to the Wikipedia page. 4: The Sirens Curse ride is new in 2025 and is included on the Wikipedia page for Cedar Point, A part that should be edited is the description of the ride. You can simply make the description say, "The first steel roller coaster featuring a tilt track in Cedar Point. This attraction opened in 2025 as the tallest, longest, fastest tilt coaster in North America. The attraction is 160ft, contains 2,966ft of track, has a top speed of 58MPH, has a 2 minute duration time, has 13 weightless airtime moments, two 360-degree, zero-gravity barrel rolls, and a high-speed “triple-down” element with twisted and overbanked track. The vehicles also feature two firsts for Cedar Point: on-board audio, allowing sound of the siren while riding the coaster; and high-tech LED lighting on the exterior of each car." 5: The Sirens Curse ride is new in 2025 and is included on the Wikipedia page for Cedar Point, another part that should be added is an image of the ride.

Not done.LucasSP6, you need to provide reliable, published sources that verify the changes you want to make. Cullen328 (talk) 19:46, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that the 2017 Cedar Point logo image from Wikimedia Commons should be used as the preview picture when searching for the article. (It is the logo that is currently being used to this day) There does not appear to be a current preview picture so this could be a really good fit.

Website; right now has links to two RSs, and here is a third, should it be worth a mention in the article. Mapsax (talk) 02:53, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Phrasing Modification

I think that the last paragraph in "Dick Kinzel" Section needs to be reworded. It is too dense and we might need to break it up into paragraphs and elaborate more on these topics. Eliinjic (talk) 21:55, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I think you might be referring to the last paragraph under "Modern era", but regardless, any autoconfirmed editor is free to boldly edit and improve the page. If the changes you make are generally accepted, then they should end up sticking. You don't necessarily need to use the talk page unless you prefer to (or you have to because you're not yet autoconfirmed), but when you do, just keep in mind that it is best to provide specific changes you'd like to see happen, and be aware that you may or may not get any feedback. Just depends how many active editors are watching the article and how well your proposal resonates with others. --GoneIn60 (talk) 16:32, 2 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
