Talk:Birmingham-Hoover, AL Metropolitan Statistical Area

message: Calling this the "Birmingham–Hoover Metropolitan Area" is a specious thing.
People from all over North America - and from much of the world - know where Birmingham, Alabama, is and what the "Birmingham, Alabama, Metropolitan Area" is. This whole idea of complicating its name is not helpful and all it does is to complicate things. Some common sense need to be used, including the principle of "KISS" = "Keep It Simple, Stupid".

message: The article title should be "Brindlee Mountain", the much more common spelling used by the locals. I've never seen "Brindley" there.
Even if you are unfamiliar with the area, the first sentence of the article "Brindlee (or "Brindley")" implies E-Y is the secondary, so it's weird that it is the article title. 2601:404:C380:220:4176:B6E:FCAB:FBD7 (talk) 22:38, 24 November 2021 (UTC)

Talk:DeSoto Caverns

message: The "Coosa Empire"? Where on earth did that come from? 
The historical information in the longest section of this article is completely unreliable. Much of it comes from early 20th-century myths about Hernán de Soto's expedition that were circulated by local business boosters in an effort to drum up tourism. Soto's route is still a subject of debate, and the three Spanish chronicles of his expedition often contradict each other. I challenge anyone to find a qualified scholar who endorses the city of Sylacauga's claim that it has been around since the year 1540. — ℜob C. alias ᴀʟᴀʀoʙ 19:05, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

message: The long addition on the Keel Mountain article, on the legend of the Lost Gold of Keel Mountain, appears to be copied from an uncited book.  Chances are, this story is from copyrighted material, which warrants its removal.

I hope the person who added the story in here will verify its source, which the disclaimer can be removed.

Talk:The Star Of Sorrow II – Hunter's Banquet

message: I would like to point out that the line "Gyula, mortally wounded, repents for his sins and gives Esther the necessary codes to activate the Star of Sorrow's self destruct shortly before he kills himself with his own severed arm." is incorrect.  Dietrich was the one who gave the "code" to both Esther and Gyula, though the code did not work.  However, Abel Nightroad had the qualifications to activate the satellite's self-destruct sequence, being a Lieutenant Colonel in the U.N. Air and Space Forces.  What Gyula does offer Esther, however, is a pistol to kill him with before he would eventually die of his injuries.  Refusing revenge, Esther doesn't kill him.

message: For the population estimate, I think we need to find an official source (like the Census Bureau, for example) if we're going to say that the population has risen by over 10% in the last year. I have not been able to find a good source saying this.
As for the changes to the history section, I've looked through several online sources and also the Pages of Time book that was published for Sebeka's centennial, and I haven't yet found any mention of a permanent Native American settlement at Sebeka or of Sebeka being called the Dairy capital of the U.S.

thread_title: Original Research

message: I have removed this statement because it is unsubstantiated.  Here is a quote from the policy page Wikipedia:Neutral point of view:
It is not sufficient to discuss an opinion as fact merely by stating "some people believe..." as is common in political debates.  A reliable source supporting that a group holds an opinion must accurately describe how large this group is. In addition, this source should be written by named authors who are considered reliable.
By all means re-insert the statement if a quantitative source can be cited showing that it is the opinion of a substantial number of people.  If the number of people that hold this view is very small then in the words of Jimbo Wales (also in the NPOV page):
If a viewpoint is held by an extremely small (or vastly limited) minority, it does not belong in Wikipedia (except perhaps in some ancillary article) regardless of whether it is true or not; and regardless of whether you can prove it or not.
