Talk:Kanawha County, West Virginia

message: This really merits its own article. --Caponer 20:39, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I guess there is precedent for that, because it seems all semi-notable events get their own articles. If you like you can move it, the only source is the one I cited. Ashibaka tock 03:39, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: This really needs moving. There are many hundreds of significant events & contributions by/of the population of this county. As both my parents worked for the Kanwaha Country School Board at the time (Principal/Executive Secretary to The Superintendent of Schools respectively) I am both fully aware of its importance & implications. This incident is not part of a movement nor is it discussed editorially. Please move or delete this section & let's leave the Wiki page to its more informational representation of the county. --Brittus  —Preceding undated comment added 17:34, 10 January 2013 (UTC)

message: I've changed the pronunciation to match the pronunciation listed in Kanawha River. The old pronunciation of /ɑː/ rather than /ɔː/ also is probably a reflection of the cot-caught merger. Talu42 (talk) 07:07, 11 July 2014 (UTC)
