Hey all, I am the WikiProject Cities assessor of this article. If you would like commentary, just give me a heads up! --Starstriker7(^{Say hi}_{or see my works}) 04:51, 20 September 2008 (UTC)

My issues with the article

First, there are two copies of the exact same picture in the article. I'm removing that now. Second, the list "Famous residents of Auburn" is out of control. I'm removing the Urban Pirates from the list immediately, as they seem to be a high school clique. I'm inclined to remove the following as well, if nobody has any objections in the next few days: John Chester Buttre, Diocesian Lewis, Jerome Holland, Nathaniel B. Eldredge, Thomas Y. Howe, Jr., James Lockhart, Truman A. Merriman, Jerry O'Neil, Theodore Pomeroy, Avery Robert Dulles, Marc DelPiano, Greg Downing, Peter M. Kurtz, and Bob Mosher. Frankly, I don't think this section even belongs here, but until someone can properly incorporate the information into the article in prose, I think that only the most notable people should stay. Perhaps I'll bring this article to the attention of the city historian and see if he or she can do something with it. Anyway, that's it for now. Please post your thoughts on the list of famous residents. Boycottfood (talk) 22:30, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

What are the "Urban Pirates," as listed at the end of the "famous residents" section? Neither Google nor Wikipedia had the answer to this, and if no one knows what it is -- then it's not exactly famous. If someone can't answer this and explain to me how its "captain" is famous, I'm removing it.
