[edit] Failed Good Article candidacy

Sorry, but as per WP:WIAGA, Princeton does not qualify as a GA because it contains zero references (aside from geographic references). Especially for the "Economics" and "Government and politics" sections, many statements need to be sourced. Additionally, as per WP:MOS, section headings should only have their initial word capitalized (in addition to any words which are always capitalized). Finally, shouldn't there be an external link to the town's web site? Feel free to resubmit this article to WP:GAC when these issues are addressed. Best of luck, and happy editing! -- Kicking222 13:55, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 2007 population?

Does anyone have a source for the 2007 population (estimated or otherwise) being nearly 11,000? I'm a Princeton resident myself, and I find that hard to believe.

I'm not a sourcing fetishist--far from it, sources only need to be provided after the fact, and even then only if someone challenges something. I'm challenging this. Kurt Weber (Go Colts!) 05:13, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Dave Thomas

Dave Thomas was born in Atlantic City, NJ, ruling him out as a native. According to Wendy's official biography of Thomas, the closest he ever came to Princeton was Fort Wayne, IN. I have removed Dave Thomas from the list of notable residents. Southern Illinois SKYWARN (talk) 16:17, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
