Incorporation, population footnotes?

[edit]

There are footnote symbols in the population table and the incorporation table, with no corresponding reference. Does anyone know what these are for? Are these just artifacts from wherever these tables were copied? Hzoi 15:38, 13 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

City vs. town

[edit]

Article was modified today to change the type of infobox to "town" from "city." I am inclined to change this back to "city" unless I see a compelling argument why it should be leftas "town." Hzoi (talk) 14:50, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it's the capitol of Hessen, isn't it? I'd push for "city" myself. Dchall1 (talk) 16:27, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
[edit]
  1. Georgenborn is no part Wiesbaden, see the article Georgenborn
  2. The link Rambach has a very weak relation to Wiesbaden-Rambach, if any. The result of the change is a red link, sorry

Weisbaden - Famous Visitors : Julian Assange

[edit]

Julian Assange is famous. He visited Weisbaden. Why should he not be mentioned under the 'Famous Visitors' section? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aru S (talkcontribs) 00:33, 12 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I think - for an encyclopaedia, as opposed to a gossip column - we have to set the bar for fame a bit higher: more like people of lasting historical significance. Otherwise large towns would have pages of names. And thousands of people who travel around a lot will be listed everywhere if we don't exclude short visits by minor celebrities.--Boson (talk) 09:38, 12 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I agree, also I think we are talking Wiesbaden, - at least the topic should be spelled right. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:46, 12 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Notables: Final Resting Place ?

[edit]

The Red Baron

Don't believe me. Check out

https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/4333/manfred-von_richthofen

Been there myself.

The question mark is on subject line indeed 'relevant' as due to 'limited land/burial issues', some graves are subject to expiration exhumation for 'new arrivals'. I suppose the Richthofen notoriety in conjunction with the family resources/interest won't let that happen, but just saying, none the less. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.184.218.187 (talk) 03:01, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
