message: || Where's the part about the legendary Porterville Fantasy League? ||
Can someone please add a section about the roots of this ground breaking league that changed Fantasy Leagues forever? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.213.64.189 (talk) 22:50, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: From what I know about pro sports, the PFBL was a proposed minor league basketball league for the San Joaquin Valley to premiere in the 2007-08 season, to have six teams: Two in Porterville (the Junior College Gymnasium) where the league is based in, a team in Visalia, Tulare, Fresno and Clovis. The region has a huge representation of teams in the Minor League Football Association of American football, and the California Collegiate Baseball League of minor league baseball has many teams in the Fresno-Tulare area. + 71.102.53.48 (talk) 17:19, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

text: The correct name is the Central California Basketball League and is no longer in operations as of the 2009-10 season. The number of teams are at six, only one team in Fresno and Clovis, the other in Visalia and Tulare, and Porterville has one not two teams. Also a team played in Bakersfield in the Buck Owens sports Arena and another in Merced in their new state university gymnasium. I wasn't able to uncover much in the google search engine, therefore the league's official web site must have vanished from cyberspace. + Mike D 26 (talk) 15:58, 22 October 2009 (UTC)

message: There have been a couple of attempts this week to replace 2000 Census population totals with more recent guestimates, without citing any sources. As the current decennial 2010 Census count is underway, let's simply wait for the actual cited totals, and continue to use the old totals here until and unless a better sourced number than that is presented.

message: Maybe we could noted if I have the right sources (US census?) the 2,500 Southeast Asians in Porterville, mainly of Laotian, Cambodian and Thai descent arrived since the 1970's, the Vietnamese community grew many times, and a large Filipino population made Porterville one of America's largest Southeast Asian communities. + 71.102.53.48 (talk) 17:22, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

message: I'm not sure who added the lovely tidbit about the Barn being one of the best community theaters in the nation, but whoever it was obviously hasn't gone to a show there in several years. Was it ever actually rated as such in some review? If not, that's blatant opinion, and I am removing it.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.203.166.2 (talk) 20:44, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

message: Nothing about the Porterville mini-riot by the Hells Angels in 1963? ? The Porterville incident is significant in the history of the Angels (and was a big news story at the time, as well as featuring prominently in Hunter S. Thompson's book about the Angels). - signed by an anon IP
I heard about this recently during a conversation with Mayor Pete McCracken, and I could find no information on it during a quick but not exhaustive search. I agree if true, it would be a significant story. Humanisland (talk) 22:19, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

message: The current revision of this page includes a section on the 1856 War  by Edhj42. There is a main article (currently in stub status) on the Tule River Indian War. Also, since the text added to this article in August 2013 is copied verbatim from the source,[url=http://tuleriver.teknet.ie/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/tule-river-indian-war-1856.pdf] I have rewritten this section and placed a link to the main article. Next up is editing the main article to try to bring it out of stub status. Mliu92 (talk) 15:10, 7 October 2014 (UTC)
