If anyone has additional info on the parks and recreations section please jump in. I got it started. Probably need a cultural section too. If I don't get it soon, maybe you guys can start it. JBEvans 01:30, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

text: I think you are correct, at least that's what I have heard. In those days, the county seat was wherever the records were. I think the legislature later validated the location of the county seat but the theft is also the story I have heard. We should be able to verify it somewhere.

message: I thought that the original story was that the records were stored in Daphne and stolen.  During the process, they were taken to Bay Minette.  I need to drive up to the historic Methodist Church near Bayside and check the signage as I believe this is a fact. --Mnemnoch 17:52, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Move to Bay Minette as County Seat 

message: I fail to see how Daphne is a commuter town as it has no public carpooling services, major public transportation, or likewise.  Even though US Highway 98 meets I-10 and goes through Daphne, this doesn't mean that it's a thoroughfare for a "bedroom town".   Much like other cities around it, Daphne has supported other cities around it throughout the 19th Century and have all been cities have been independently successful.  --Mnemnoch 04:35, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

message: Is it necessary to name the business owned by the mayor? It has no particular standing of its own and seems a little like a commercial nod. Any thoughts? JodyB talk 22:06, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

message: I don't think the education section looks very good. What would you think of removing the sub-sections and bringing everything into one or two paragraphs?

message: I am nominating this article for review as a Good Article. I am at the point where I think a review would help figure out where to go from here. My goal is to one day take this to Featured Article status but that is a long way away. Any thoughts or edits from anyone is helpful. Thanks! JodyB talk 19:30, 18 November 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Good Article Review 

message: Abu Mansoor Al-Amriki has been listed as a notable person in the Daphne, Alabama article for a very long time. Recently, a user has decided to remove him stating that he was not really notable and wasn't really from Daphne.  I disagree. The Washington Post reports that he was a commander in a particularly brutal terrorist group and that he had earned "a spot on the FBI's list of most-wanted terrorists and a $5 million bounty on his head." (September 13, 2013). I would suggest that makes him notable in any discussion. The same Washington Post report says "Amriki was raised in Daphne, Ala." In addition, the subject has a page on Wikipedia which shows him as coming from Daphne. In addition, he was the Class President at Daphne High School. I suggest he should be returned to the article.
