Talk:Birmingham, Michigan

message: Where exactly was David Spade born in Birmingham?  At home, in the back of a car, under a bench in Shain Park?  Same question for actress Christine Lahti, whose IMDB bio also claims Birmingham as her place of birth?  There are not, nor have there been in my 50-year memory, any hospitals or maternity wards in Birmingham.  The nearest hospital is William Beaumont in Royal Oak, which opened in 1955, five years after Lahti's birth.  Saint Joseph Mercy in Pontiac has been around since 1927. Or maybe they were born in Detroit?

message: We need a citation for the "second best high school other than Renaissance" comment in the education section.  I have yet to see any polls that ranked Renaissance High as the best Michigan public high school.  I have seen many that spoke to the contrary, including the Newsweek poll which ranked the International Academy higher than any other Michigan public school, and from what I understand the state has always recognized this ranking.  I also understand that the U.S. News and World Report poll (which doesn't include the Academy since it doesn't recognize IB schools) ranked other Michigan high schools higher than these two schools.  Since the education portion doesn't have any citations, I will be tagging it for such and remove the reference to the best schools until someone can find proof for it.

replies: text: On further examination, I found three other sections which were also lacking citations.  I tagged each of them for missing citations and tagged the whole article for needing addition citations.  This article, overall, does not have nearly enough references for one of its length and depth. Beggarsbanquet (talk) 01:30, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
