I am about to merge an edited form of this material into the main article, making it possible to delete El Camino Bible Church while maintaining history. Dpbsmith (talk) 23:03, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)

message: Is listing churches on city articles within the purview of Wikipedia?  I would tend to say no, unless the churches are historically, architecturally, or otherwise significant.
By what standard were the churches in this article listed?  I'd like to list one, if we're going to be listing every church in the city.
I'm cool with it either way, but I want to know if we want to consider pruning this list. Jdavidb 23:14, 16 July 2005 (UTC)

message: The oldest institution of Higer learning in Caliornia(indeed on the west coast) is San Jose State University (started as San Jose City College) Not Santa clara university
:Santa Clara University was founded in 1851 as Santa Clara College.  San Jose State University was founded in 1857 as Minns' Evening Normal School in San Francisco.  San Jose State is the state's oldest public university, but Santa Clara University is the state's oldest institution of higher learning.

message: This section seems odd.  I checked some other city pages (San Jose, Oakland, Sunnyvale, cupertino, San Francisco), and none of them have this section.  Should it maybe be whacked? Jokeboy (talk) 02:33, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Representation

message: Should the City Council Members be sorted by last name or by seat? If sorted by seat (2 to 7; I gather the mayor is seat No. 1) should the Vice Mayor (P. Mahen seat No. 5) be either a) noted and/or b) put out of order? I assume that any change made under Representation should also apply to the infobox. Bcmuirhead (talk) 07:43, 10 February 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not sure what (if any) WP policy is on this, but however its listed on the city's website should be how its done in the article assuming that is the reference used to support it. --Scalhotrod - Just your average banjo playing, drag racing, cowboy...

message: The listing of "Namco Bandai Holdings's United States office is in Santa Clara." does not seem worthy of inclusion, I think it should be removed.

replies: text: By itself, maybe.  But the idea of listing major companies who either are headquartered in Santa Clara, or have their U.S. headquarters or main office in Santa Clara, is, I think, a good one.  There are some significant companies: Sun Microsystems (at least for the time being); Intel; National Semiconductor; Hitachi (U.S. HQ/main office); Applied Materials; Extreme networks; Foundry Networks; Silicon Valley Bank; and probably a lot of others, but that's just off the top of my head.  According to its Wikipedia article, Namco Bandai is about a $4B company, and is probably worth including in here.  So maybe it's appropriate to expand it a bit, rather than delete.  I think "Economy" is the wrong heading, though, unless there was other economy-related material added. (add: I somehow forgot that little organization, the San Francisco 49ers, who are headquartered in the north end of Santa Clara, walking distance from their proposed stadium site.)

replies: text: More info: A "Top 20 List Of  Companies In Santa Clara, California" an be found here.  I'm not sure what criterion is used to rank them.  Silicon Valley Bank is in there twice, once as the bank itself and once as Svb Financial Group, its holding company. TJRC (talk) 17:51, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: Your addition is incorrect, the city is named after the Spanish mission that was established in 1777. The city grew around the mission. The mission is what was named for the saint.

message: It is not enough typing "Hispanic or latino (of any race)" as you have to add what is the percentage of Hispanic or Latino in every race, same way as you do for those who are not Hispanic or Latino. That Racism in America, and especially in California, against Whites is somehting incredible. Why there is so much hate in America against Whites? Why?
As the article says, 45% of the population in the county are White, and that means you have to add to the 36% Non-Hispanic White another 9 % of Hispanic Whites to give a real picture.--213.60.237.52 (talk) 01:44, 28 August 2018 (UTC)
