Defunct?[edit]

A new user is adding that the ride is defunct and changing the location. The Disney website continues to list in in operation and I am not bonded to this subject at all. I will leave this as a place for discussion. Ifnord (talk) 22:54, 6 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Absent a reliable source to confirm that the rise is indeed defunct, I would leave it as is. The user's change of the location of the attraction is definitely wrong though so I'm going to revert back. @KoolJakeson112: please discuss here instead of edit warring. If you have a reliable source that confirms that the attraction is defunct, please provide it or let us know here. Aoi (青い) (talk) 23:28, 6 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
