[edit] Needs MAJOR work/go for FA

This is gonna get a massive rewrite. It's not just a copyvio, it's waving it's fist at copyvio... This version is what it used to look like. Ugly, one huge copyvio. I think Stratford's history is enough to make this a surefire FA article and will see how close I can get it to that. If anyone wants to help out, it's occured to me that the fairly unique history of Stratford--ranging from the military connections with the SAEP/Sikorsky, it's role in aviation, the Raybestos pollution mess, and it's role in theater arts--not to mention all the Puritanical history--gives this enough meat to be a FA canidate. rootology (T) 00:15, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Stephen King

I added this a while ago myself, before I knew WP:V. I'd always heard this endlessly and took it as fact. Can anyone cite it? "Stratford was also home to Stephen King, the famed horror author, who lived there as a young child. Stratford is often said to be the inspiration for King's novel It." Easy to cite that he lived there--but for Stratford being the inspiration for "It"...? rootology (T) 07:47, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Swaths of copyvio

All gone. rootology (T) 05:28, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
