I have really high ceilings, and they are covered in wallpaper from floor the floor up, on all four sides. I started trying to take it off, but it's not coming easily. We plan on texturing the whole room. Does anyone know if we can just texture right over the top of the wall paper, or is that a bad idea?

I agree. The best way is usually not the easiest, but you will sleep better. Having said that I have removed thousands of rolls of paper in my time[my family owned a wallpaper store in the 70's].A lot depends on the paper , if it is vinyl,foil,mylar,fabric backed or even paper backed. Each type is removed a little different than the other, best to try to get it off and that includes the adhesive [which can mildew over time]...One bright side is if you intend to texture the walls most of the damage will be covered by the texture. good luck
