Talk:History of Atlanta

message: Considering that Atlanta was in Fulton County, which was 20.5% slave in 1860 and 45.7 % "colored"/African-American in 1870, it is hard to know where to start on adding the African-American presence to the city's history. There is quite a blank in the article so far. 
While north Georgia did not have the largest enslaved populations of the middle Piedmont or the coast, Cobb County just to the north was 27% slave in 1860, with that population mostly working on cotton plantations and held by large planters (men who held 20 or more slaves and were part of the political and social elite of the state).

message: The directions given to the mile zero marker are outdated.  Changes to roads (i.e. construction of Georgia Dome on top of where Magnolia Street used to be) and their names (i.e. a section of Magnolia Street was renamed International Boulevard, then later Andrew Young International Boulevard) have left us with no place where Magnolia and Forsyth streets come anywhere near each other at present.  I'd update it with a more accurate location, though I'm not sure exactly where the marker is - but by simply looking at a map the description of the location provided does not exist.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.226.55.226 (talk) 20:09, 5 October 2015 (UTC)

message: Article says, "conservatism grew rapidly in the suburbs, . . . ."  That is a doubtful statement which may call into question the reliability of the source.  Probably the truth is that Republican voting grew rapidly in the suburbs as white conservative Georgia Democrats abandoned a Democrat party which was moving rapidly in the direction of liberalism.

: (See Wikipedia:Merging and moving pages for details on performing mergers.)
:I don't see the need for a separate and very short article on a previous name for Atlanta when we already have a dedicated history article for the city. Also, there's no real need copy over the act to main article, as it's accessible in the source, but that's a separate issue from the merge itself. - BilCat (talk) 05:36, 9 August 2018 (UTC)
