Vanity edits

I have to agree with Inonit: Wikipedia is not the place to list most high school champions even at the state (much less the sectional) level, as by and large they are not notable. There are exceptions, of course: LeBron James is one recent and obvious one from Ohio. Then again, once you pull down an NBA contract with a ton of endorsements, you too would be notable enough for Wikipedia. -- SwissCelt 22:24, 25 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

Funny, I left almost an identical note on the user's talk page:
Welcome to Wikipedia!  I've been reverting your edits on Norwalk, Ohio as local high school sports accomplishments are, generally,
not encyclopedic content.  (Perhaps national record-holders or other extremely notable high school athletes such as LeBron James
would be exceptions.)  Please discuss any further changes on the Talk page.  Thanks!--Inonit 13:18,

Visitor Question

edit

I just visited Norwalk and wanted to know the history and origins of a very old red brick building with a cone shaped turret. On top of the turret is a rod with a dragon curling down it. Can you please explain this building here and even include a photo of it. It is remarkable. It is near Seminary 69.223.165.166 21:52, 6 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

I do not know the answer, but there was a Huron County historian at one point; his name was Henry Timmon or Henry Timmons. He may or may not still do that and/or there may be a replacement. He also wrote a column for the newspaper (the Norwalk Reflector). Wonder if he is on the web, either via the paper or his official capacity?--Inonit 23:22, 7 February 2007 (UTC)Reply


Problem

edit

In the politics section, I notice someone keeps changing the political party affiliation of Norwalk's mayor, state representatives, etc. from Democratic to Republican. What might be the best way to deter the person who is doing this from continuing? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Tcjoe1985 (talkcontribs) 22:09, 4 March 2007 (UTC).Reply

Norovirus

edit

Not sure where it should be added, but it's probably worth mentioning that norovirus was named after this city. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alanrussian (talkcontribs) 20:01, 18 March 2017 (UTC)Reply
