message: Selena is mentioned twice in the notable people section.  The first time she is mentioned is as Selena Quintinilla and then as simply Selena.  Recommend that the two references to her are combined under Selena Quintinilla, so as to continue to group her with her siblings.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2605:6000:F204:6F00:3C6A:8771:2FCD:2818 (talk) 20:27, 14 March 2017 (UTC)

message: Residents of both Calallen and Flour Bluff (and occasionally Clarkwood and Annaville) often refer to those places as separate communities, but in every legal sense they are a part of Corpus Christi and have been for some time.
Calallen primarily refers to itself as separate out of a sense of elitism.
I was raised in Annaville/Calallen areas in the 1950s-60s.  A great many of the current residents were, as well.  Corpus Christi 'forcibly' annexed from Tuloso-Midway to the Nueces at Calallen in the early sixties and it was many years later that those areas received any benefit of city services of any kind, other than higher taxes.  I would imagine this is why residents still think of themselves as only periferally a part of Corpus. Ditto Flour Bluff and Clarkwood.  When I left the area in 1964 we still had to flag down  a Greyhound or Continental bus on Hwy 9 (Leopard st) into downtown to go to the library or the beach.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.55.137.250 (talk) 00:50, 18 September 2011 (UTC)

message: I noticed that the region is described as "Semiarid."  What exactly does this mean?  Corpus Christi proper receives an average of 30.4 inches of rain per year (see this site) and the description of semi-arid reports it as areas receiving between 10-20 inches of rainfall per year.  However, even inland sections of the Corpus Christi area, such as the city of Alice, receive around 30 inches of rainfall per year (Alice area profile).  So, what exactly does this "region" entail?  I would think that a better fit would be "humid subtropical" for the whole region, not just the city, and other sections of Wikipedia seem to support my assertion  Humid subtropical climate

message: This article really needs some TLC. There shouldn't be a section called "Futurists" or "Activists" or anything like that. In fact, a listing of notable people from the city really only belongs in a category.. see Dallas, Texas and :Category:People from Dallas for example. There should not be a list of "awards" won by the city in the lead. The fact that the city is blanketed in WiFi coverage also does not belong in the lead. There is only one photo.

message: Hi.  I'm going through all the US Cities (as per List of United States cities by population) in an effort to provide some uniformity in structure.  Anyone have an issue with me restructuring this article as per Wikipedia:WikiProject Cities/US Guideline.  I won't be changing any content, merely the order.  Occasionally, I will also move a picture just to clean up spacing issues.  I've already gone through the top 20 or so on the above list, if you'd like to see how they turned out.  Thoughts?

thread_title:  Structure 

message: Hi.  This section has reached a length where it should probably have its own page, and a link put here.  Any issues with me creating it?  As I do, I'll try to add others to the list.  Onel5969 (talk) 14:03, 22 June 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: This sort of section has two appropriate formats.  If short enough, it ought to include anyone who demonstrably passes WP:BIO and who demonstrably lived in the city.  If that would produce too long of a list, it ought to be split out into a freestanding list page, and this section should become either a summary (the most important city residents) or purely a "see also" to the freestanding list.  As long as we're attempting to list everyone, we should definitely include any federal legislators (and any state legislators too) who demonstrably lived in Corpus Christi.

message: Another editor, , has made several attempts to change the photo in the infobox.  While I am not adverse to changing the photo, their first selection was a somewhat non-descript photo of an intersection somewhere in the city:
While their second choice was a blurry photo, which seemed to highlight the field, which takes up fully half of the photograph: Update: (Has been cropped to remove excess field area)
Thoughts?  Suggestions?  Not trying to get into an edit war, but those choices just don't seem to improve the article.  Onel5969 (talk) 21:40, 30 July 2014 (UTC)

message: I just started Indulin AA-86, about the chemical identified as a water contaminant in Corpus Christi.  It's possible there is a duplicate effort going on somewhere else about Wikipedia about this (I'm surprised nobody had started it before me!) so I should note that here.  I'm not sure it's notable to link to from this article about the city as a whole, but maybe someone on the ground there can look it over and see if I have anything wrong.
