Should we have a link to the Battle of Saratoga? It's a fairly notable event taking place in Saratoga.

The Battle of Saratoga actually took place about 15 miles outside the city limits in Stillwater. PeterPan23 23:10, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

There should definitely be a link to the Battle of Saratoga! The battlegrounds are an important part of Saratoga City and County tourism; visitors to Saratoga Springs often want more information about the Battle. Yes, please include a link! And--by-the-way: kudos to whomever wrote this page on Saratoga Springs. Beautifully done, no detail omitted. It's terrific!LadyHorseWriter 09:05, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

Does anyone else here think that a link to more info on the natural mineral springs here? A couple are still operational, and they're why the area was settled in the first place. Travel4Fun 16:30, 12 November 2006 (UTC)Travel4Fun

We don't need the link, but if you'd like to add the information itself that'd be welcome. -Will Beback 20:59, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

I really don't feel that the Notable list should be alphabetized. There's no way that some session drummer for a couple of minor bands should be on top, and David Hyde Pierce buried in the middle. Either we should arrange the list in some rough order of actual prominence, or impose some kind of cutoff to ensure that everyone on the list actually has some broad cultural significance . . . and seriously, several of them don't. Which is fine if they're at the bottom of the list, but not if they're burying the really prominent people.
