"*One Sunday a nearby gas tank exploded, people up to a 2 mile radius heard it. This caused an evacuation for up to two days."
A proper note citing the best of the sources retrieved from Googling miamisburg explosion sunday would be an appropriate addition to this article.--DataSurfer 13:13, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

message: I have lived in Miamisburg my entire life and have never heard anybody pronounce it "Mye-am-uhs-burg." I think this was added unfairly and makes the entire community sound illiterate and, frankly, stupid. I would appreciate it not being in the Wikipedia article, and the correct pronunciation is "Mye-am-eez-burg." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 
This pronunciation is commonly used in neighboring towns such as West CarrolLton*, where most of the community is illiterate or perhaps too drunk to speak clearly.
Lived in Miamisburg for 20 years, always called it "Mye-am-iz-burg" although, of the three (thus far) pronunciations "Mye-am-uhs-burg", "Mye-am-eez-burg" and my "Mye-am-iz-burg" I would think that the most appropriate would be "Mye-am-eez-burg" based the pronunciation of the collective name of the Miami Indians (the Miamis) and the German "burg." Of course, eventually someone will have to translate it into that completely indecipherable "official" pronunciation guide of Wikipedia's in which case, no one will know how it is pronounced 143.220.15.2 (talk) 12:45, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

message: This is at odds with the Wikipedia article on the Grave Creek Mound in West Virginia which is also east of the Mississippi, but listed as the largest conical mound in the United States. I think Grave Creek is the larger. ~~

message: I merged the info from both the "Politics in Miamisburg, Ohio" and "Downtown Miamisburg, Ohio" articles into the appropriate sections here. While it is common to use a merge template to discuss a merge like that, it is not required. :Template:Merge states "If it is obvious that a merge would be appropriate, then you may boldly merge the pages without tagging and without discussion." This seemed pretty cut and dry given the size of Miamisburg and the state of all three articles involved on top of the absence of much of the info in the "daughter articles" from the main one. "Daughter articles" are needed when the subject has notability on its own and inclusion in the main article would result in a given section being unusually long.
For the downtown article, much of the info was duplicated here already in the Culture and recreation section. The rest of the info was either unsourced or included elsewhere in this article. The downtown area does not appear to be notable on its own (like if it were a historic district...instead the downtown area has a number of notable attractions) and many other articles on much larger cities do not have separate articles for their downtown areas. Further, the Downtown Miamisburg article read far more like a convention and visitors bureau webpage than an encyclopedia article.
The politics article was basically a list of council members and had not been updated in almost eight years. This article lacked a Government section, so it made sense to add one here. The info in the Government section, at this point, is not anywhere near sufficient enough to warrant a separate article. --JonRidinger (talk) 16:43, 6 February 2015 (UTC)
