411: 390: 1197:, some good points, cheers. Considering the status of this place it really lacks scholarly/decent material aside from the typical Vegas touristy type stuff and news stories/snippets in books. There should be a detailed book on its history and architecture but there isn't. I guess because the main point is the gambling! We've done pretty well considering though I think, though I'm sure somewhere there's a lot more material which could be added.♦ 506: 244: 597: 572: 21: 741: 1215: 359: 342: 291: 936: 861:, the developer of Caesars Palace, Jay Sarno, "wanted everyone who was a guest in his hotel to feel like a Caesar, which is why there is no apostrophe in Caesars Palace. It is a palace filled with Caesars, not the palace of one Caesar." I leave it to others to decide whether it's worth mentioning in the article. 901:
I noticed that the article states in a couple of places that the Augustus Tower was renamed in 2015 to the Laurel Collection Tower. It does not cite a source, and, as far as I can tell, is incorrect: the Augustus and Octavius Towers together form the Laurel Collection, and represent Caesars boutique

1071:" In September 2015, Caesars Palace agreed to pay the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) an $ 8 million civil money penalty for violating the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA)" - FinCEN and BSA aren't mentioned in the article again, so I'm not sure why these abbreviations are here 812:
I again reverted the contested, unsourced, pov statements. In my opinion, a {{fact}} is not enough here because the statements made in the edit have not only been contested and are unsourced, but by consensus felt to be a non-neutral

Thanks for addressing them! I'm surprised to hear the lack of intellectual coverage on this, seeing as it's probably the biggest one in Las Vegas! Without further ado I'll promote this, just in time for Sinatra's 100th anniversary.

What makes Frank Sinatra the "most notable" act appearing at Caesars Palace? Is there a famous or pop culture link (that I am not aware of) between Frank Sinatra and Caesars Palace that makes this an objective analysis?-
207: 838:
I presume that the article deliberately spells the name without an apostrophe. Shouldn't this be mentioned in the article's text? Was this an accident by the Palace's original builder/owner?

Thank you for the explanation. In which case, they should have put an apostrophe after the "S". Anyway, I think that it is worth mentioning in the article.
1292: 1312: 451: 133: 764:, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with 461: 732:
the first picture is a shot of Caesars Augustus Tower, but the foreground is Bellagio, next door and accross Flamingo Road. It could be misleading.

Removed part about SIP telephones & manufacturer in one of the tower - insufficient encyclopedic value and likely to be deliberate advertising.

Those were all! of the prose issues I could find during my review of the article. Nice work on this! It's well written and comprehensive.
1061:"which was originally built at a cost of $ 95-million for Celine Dion's show A New Day... in 2003" - comma needed in between "show" and "A" 678: 946: 1307: 1246: 1109: 792: 427: 46: 1260:
This is probably one of the worst article I have come across for advertising. I am working at trimming back the fluff and puffery now.

why isn't it Caesar's Palace? Or even Caesars' Palace, if referring to all of the Caesars? Why no apostrophe?
1051:"Opened in 1966 after four years of planning and construction" - best to start this sentence with something like 505: 273: 410: 389: 183: 658: 682: 1250: 903: 992: 163: 53: 179: 988: 772: 748: 671:
