[edit] Not semi-protected

This article was not actually semi-protected, so I removed {{sprotect}}. If you want protection, please ask an admin. Do not simply add the template. Johnleemk | Talk 14:10, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Photos

We don't need dozens of photos of random things in here, especially photos with no source information or ones that appear to be saved from other websites (which is why there's a watermark on the BB&T building photo). A couple of photos, sure; but a dozen of them, no. Metros232 14:06, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Time to Raleigh

How fast are you guys driving? The shortest distance between Ward Blvd and the beltline is 40 miles. When you factor in traffic and driving further into the cities, 40 minutes is more realistic than 30.

[edit] Famous or Notable Former Residents

Add Miguel Nunez, Actor. Graduated from Fike High School, 1976. Played Marcus Taylor in 'Tour of Duty' and Little Richard, in 'Why Do Fools Fall in Love?' and 'Nutty Professor II: The Klumps'. Has played may parts in movies and TV series.

[edit] Notable Movie Location

Some portions of the Movie "Love Field" were filmed in Wilson. Some portions of downtown Wilson were cosmetically renovated to accommodate filming.

[edit] What is up with the huge section on shopping.

Does this really need to be in an encyclopedia?—Gaff ^ταλκ 10:40, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Assessment

I've assessed this article as 'start' class. Most sections are very short, with little text in them. It might help to review the templates and/or proposed templates for city articles at WP:CITIES. The importance was rated at low based on the priority scale here. Dr. Cash 19:52, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] What stores would you like

I just would like to know but what stores would you (as in people who live in wilson) restruates or such or what have you heard is coming ruomers or such i heard there was going to have olive gardens, zaxby's (they had to move it because the community didnt want the smell of chicken near the new underconstruction bb&t building ) so they might move it somewhere. They have a sign beside chick-fil-la that says were getting a Dip n' Dots. I heard about a year ago a Hooters. well what would you like or what have you heard. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.62.111.132 (talk) 17:40, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
