I've moved the following from the article about Texas State University-San Marcos:

San Marcos is the only habitat for the endangered San Marcos salamander.

[edit] Outlet Malls

Where's the article about the Outlet Malls? They're a big tourist attraction and even gain some more visitors than the Alamo.

As of 2004, the outlet malls are the 4th ranked tourist attraction in Texas, overall, with the Alamo, San Antonio's riverwalk, and 6 Flags over Texas (in Dallas) being #s 1, 2 and 3. However, the Alamo and the Riverwalk are literally a couple blocks away from each other and most people who visit one will visit the other. See http://www.travel.state.tx.us/VisitorsTopAttractions.aspx --studerby 22:19, 19 July 2006 (UTC) Yea but can we put that fact in the article? Falconleaf

[edit] appropriate linking policy

Someone keeps adding a link to http://www.78666.com/ as an "external link". That site isn't appropriate in a wikipedia article, under the WP:EL policy. studerby 13:03, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Created redirect

I tried to find this by searching "san marcos, tx" and got nothing, so I have created a redirect from San Marcos, TX. 71.221.49.24 02:36, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wireless San Marcos

We need to incorporate information about the upcoming Wireless San Marcos project into the article.   — C M B J   05:38, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
