Talk:North Charleston, South Carolina

message: I've done a good bit of rewriting and referencing on this article in the past, but there's still a lot of work to be done. Large sections of the history portion are missing sources. The demographics section needs to be updated for 2010 and sourced. Multiple other sections (Government, Transportation, et c.) are either thinly sourced or not sourced at all. I find most of my references in the Post and Courier archives and Google News archives. I'll continue to work on it, but I could use some help. Thanks!   Cjmclark (Contact) 15:34, 14 June 2011 (UTC)

message: I have reverted four edits made to this article (with edit summaries marked only as "updates") on 12 October 2011. My reasons are as follows:
*This edit added information regarding a new terminal "under construction and yet unnamed". Wikipedia is not a crystal ball; there is no reason to include this until it can be sourced (and ideally has a name or some other kind of identifying information, such as "Rivers Avenue Terminal" or something similar).
*This edit moved the wikilink in the "Nearby cities and towns" section for Goose Creek, South Carolina for no apparent reason, replacing it with a duplicate wikilink for Charleston, South Carolina.
*This edit removed information regarding the Jenkins Orphanage from the "Culture" section as well as renaming the "Culture" section the "Downtown" section, which is an imprecise designation at best as North Charleston has no discrete "downtown" area and the information in that section better fits under the "Culture" heading.
*And this edit re-inserts the removed information about the orphanage at the end of the "History" section, out of order with the timeline.
If there is a solid argument for re-instating these edits, please discuss it here. I have re-organized the "Nearby cities and towns" section here such that the municipalities in question are listed alphabetically, first by cities, then towns, then unincorporated areas. Cheers.   Cjmclark (Contact) 05:27, 13 October 2011 (UTC)

message: User 128.23.195.159 has been reversing my edits of the article which says that North Charleston is one of the states'a major retail centers to saying that it is THE state's major retail center. The article linked as a source to support this claim (*the* major retail center) should not be regarded as a verifiable, definite source for such. Akhenaton06 (talk) 16:27, 21 November 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: In point of fact, North Charleston has led all South Carolina cities in gross retail sales for the last 20 years. The SCDOR 2011-12 annual report shows North Charleston reporting $5,872,564,199 in gross retail sales, over $1 billion more than the next city (Charleston). Beyond that, is there any reason why the Post and Courier should not be considered a reliable and verifiable source? Cheers.   Cjmclark (Contact) 01:16, 22 November 2013 (UTC)

message: There is currently a paragraph that is the point of some contention on this page.  In the interest of stopping this edit war, I'm bring the discussion here.
I believe that the following paragraph should be included on the grounds that this is the most of notable event in this town's history. What are other editors thoughts? Winner 42  Talk to me!  18:06, 22 April 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: I think it should be in the article, but that the statement "who had been arrested numerous times for back child support" is POV and should be removed.  No one is claiming that having been arrested numerous times for child support is justification for being shot, or even that the officer was aware of that fact when he stopped Scott.  It is irrelevant to the other facts stated.  It may have something to do with Scott's motive for resisting arrest, but we cannot and should not go into that level of detail about the incident here, and without more explanation, it sends a signal to the reader that we should not send. Scott's motivation can be (and is) discussed at the main article already linked. Dwpaul Talk    13:12, 24 April 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree, removing that statement would be fair and the section is still important to the town. Winner 42  Talk to me!  14:03, 24 April 2015 (UTC)
