Talk:Southport, Indiana

message: Nearly the entire article is written in POV.  This must be changed to adhere to wikipedia standards. chris4682
*POV comment:  The following disturbs me:
Southport's averages compared to Indiana's state averages vary from above to below. The median household income of Southport is above the state average. The unemployed percentage is significantly below the state average and the black race population percentage significantly below the state average. 
Median age above state average. Renting percentage below state average. 
Is there a reason that the the words above and below are bolded when mentioning household income, unemployed percentage, and black population relative to the state average.  Maybe I'm jumping to conlusions, but this seems to be agenda driven.NonSequitar 00:58, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Vincennes, Indiana

message: The time zone shouldn't be in the introduction.

replies: text: As an Illinois resident who lives near Vincennes, IN, I can assure you that time zone is a central issue an encyclopedia should address concerning this town. I agree that it shouldn't be in the introduction, but it really needs to be addressed in the article. Just now I spent 10 minutes trying to track down a valid answer to what time it is in Vincennes, and it was nearly impossible to find a reliable answer. Even the Vincennes, IN page said it was EDT (-6 UTC), which is also wrong because EDT is -5 UTC.

Talk:Washington, Indiana

message: Several residents of Washington refer to the whole of the city as Dubtown. The origins of the name are debateable, however, many believe it to be a spoof of modern rap artists interest in vehicle modification. Also, Washington is divided into two separate districts informally agreed upon by its denizens. The first being the East Side. The East side is a relatively privileged neighborhood with a low crime rage. The second is called the West End. The West End is the older half of residential homes, the people here are not exactly disrespected by the community but are recognized as possibly being poorer than their eastern counterparts. Farther west lies a subsidiary community named BoxTown. Commonly miscredited to people living with cardboard boxes as walls and roofs, the durogatory nickname was actually provided by earlier citizens of the glorius railway years. BoxTown is named after the railway wanders and hobos that needed places to sleep. With nothing truly avialable- they slept in older abandoned railcars. Thusly giving birth to the term of the older and considerably poorer Boxtown.
I'd like to clean that up and put it back in the article with different wording. Cdwillis 05:10, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

Talk:William Wells (soldier)

message: Is this sculpture from the DuSable Bridge a depiction of William Wells?  It depicts the Battle of Fort Dearborn and shows a US captain defending the US retreat from native forces.  Also, the inscription below mentions Wells by name.  I'm trying to find a source that explicitly names Wells as the subject of this sculpture, but I haven't found one, yet.

message: Source for this is from growing up in Maumee OH - this is local geography to me.  I believe the Ft. Miamis referenced is not the one linked to from the article.  The Ft. Miami referred to is in Maumee, a few miles (rather than the 50+ miles to the Indian site the article links to).

message: The Legacy section currently begins with the assertion that "It is a common misconception that the legion was abandoned in 1796." There are a couple of problems with this assertion, but before I delete it I'm going to give its supporter(s) an opportunity to fix it. 
First, provide evidence that it is a miconception. If it wasn't abandoned in 1796, what did happen to it? Was it abandoned in some other year? Was it discontinued or replaced in some other manner than abandonment? 
Second, provide evidence that it is a common misconception.

message: Zebulon Pike has been added to the list of Notable members of the Legion, but there's no citation and nothing in the article Zebulon Pike to corroborate.  That article states "He was commissioned as a second lieutenant of infantry in 1799," which would fall outside the timeline in which the Legion existed.  Can anyone confirm that Pike was or was not a member of the Legion? Canute (talk) 20:53, 2 March 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm removing Pike for the reasons stated above.  His article says he was born in 1779 and commissioned in 1799, after the Legion had been reorganized into the Army of the United States.  If someone has more info and a source to show he was in the Legion, he could be added back in. Canute (talk) 14:35, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: There was a Zebulon Pike in the 3rd sub-legion.  See “Roster of the Officers of 'The Legion of the United States,' Commanded by Major-General Anthony Wayne.” The Pennsylvania Magazine of History and Biography, vol. 16, no. 4, 1893, p. 426.  I'd wager this is Zebulon Pike, Sr., the father of "Pike's Peak" Zebulon Pike.  I won't pursue this further at this time, but it might make for an interesting addition or note if someone wants to go down that trail. Canute (talk) 19:41, 19 October 2020 (UTC)

message: The text says that Wayne’s forces were joined at camp Hobson’s Choice by Scott’s Kentucky Militia.

I am working on it, but if anyone wants to pitch in I would appreciate that very much.  
I also thought that it would be good to add a section about the development of the Syracuse-Wawasee Trail.  I realize this might be borderline travel-brochure-ish, however, as it will affect portions of the lake (i.e. the construction of a boardwalk and a pedestrian bridge) I think it is relevant.

I say this because mainly we're an English encyclopedia, and if you wanted the other language details, it'd be good to make interwiki links. The Japanese names are significant enough as Japan's the origin. I only followed the idea when it was illustrated in the Bulbasaur article merely because it was the article we were basing off. Some of the text put in there in the Marshtomp article though would be better suited to the introductory paragraph and relevant games, other media, manga and movie sections. --Tetsuya-san (talk : contribs) 02:11, 9 April 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Nissan Motor Manufacturing UK

message: Is there a reason that the location of Nissan UK and various models produced there is always given as Washington and the factory described as their Washington plant, when Nissan never refer to it as anything other than their Sunderland plant? Even the sign at the entrance to the complex says "Nissan Sunderland". I know that Washington is part of the City of Sunderland but it seems strange to insist the factory is in Washington. On checking Google Earth, the distance from the middle of the complex to The Galleries in Washington is only just over half a mile less then the distance from the factory to the centre of the city of Sunderland.  Added to this is the proximity to Sunderland housing estates which are immediately over the A19 - i.e. much closer than Washington housing. Another point is the confusion to readers globally by insisting on using the Washington nomenclature. Most readers would think of Washington DC in the USA. What is the consensus here?
