Wondering how to edit this U.S. City Entry?
The WikiProject U.S. Cities standards might help.

You know, I'm really glad someone took the time to make this. --Nathand42 23:08, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

In reading this, I get a strong feeling that a lot of this was copied right out of a tourist brochure. Which is plagiarism, and is, of course, not permitted under Wikipedia rules. If it was found that it was plagiarized, it would have to be removed. Slater79 03:42, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

It should be mentioned that the 'segregation' apparently so rampant in Dothan is not present in the school system, and (when referring to residential segregation) is due primarily to the cost of the housing in that area. 68.59.64.116 08:33, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Civil Rights???

Does anyone know anything about Dothan's civil rights movement?? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 65.0.182.13 (talk) 04:34, 20 December 2006 (UTC).

[edit] NPOV

There's some serious work needed to clean this up. We need references for the claims made and need to be careful about POV language. I rated this as start because there is little about government, transportation. More is needed on the full history of the city. With these things it could be "b" class~~

[edit] People Of Dothan

I'm deleting this section. That section had been tagged with "Cite Sources" for a long period of time, some for nearly a year.Reinoe (talk) 15:51, 15 January 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Tax burden

"This means residents of Houston County have the lowest tax burden of anyone in the Western world." Assuming they pay US federal income tax, which is considerably higher than several other western countries, this is of course completely wrong. If someone has the information, can anyone edit this to say "of the US" or whatever is correct? Andremul (talk) 07:32, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
