I have changed this to "St. Petersburg, Florida" from "Saint Petersburg, Florida" to reflect the official name of the city in Florida. ALC Washington 15:48, 5 August 2005 (UTC)

Jimbo Wales's residence in St. Petersburg is hardly the most important piece of information about that city (and Wales himself has said that he deserves no special treatment on Wikipedia as opposed to the average encycolpedia). Furthermore, I do not think it makes much sense to put a town's most important resident in the disambiguation (this is not done in the Casper disambiguation, for instance, despite the fact that Casper, Wyoming is the hometown of U.S. Vice President Cheney). Would there be any objection to reverting to the last edit? ALC Washington 17:43, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
