The article for New Amsterdam says the city used to be called Altena, but this article doesn't mention it. What should it be? --Awiseman 14:12, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image
Not trying to be mean, but currently this has one of the worst city photos I've ever seen on Wikipedia. Requesting a Wilmington local go downtown and snap at least an in-focus shot that's not taken from behind a utility pole. --Oakshade 23:16, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
- Not a local, but I added a couple of pictures from a recent visit. I replaced the blurry one that was at the top of the page. It's on the commons if needed. Malepheasant 04:40, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
- Much improved! Thanks! --Oakshade 00:15, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Notable Persons
Hasn't this gotten out of hand?! Shouldn't the requirements be either born in the city, or lived in the city for more than 15 years. Being born in Talleyville or Brandywine Hundred shouldn't be included, and neither should living here for a year. Thoughts?
- In general agreement, except that born in the city includes most people who were raised in the suburbs, especially until the more recent development of the Christiana Hospital in Newark.
[edit] Neighborhood Links
I removed the link for Christina Landing from the Southbridge neighborhood. All other neighborhood links lead to the actual neighborhood or neighborhood association, while Christina Landing is a portion of the Southbridge neighborhood.--Littledrummrboy 15:13, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
