[edit] Crime

The 14th annual "City Crime Rankings: Crime in Metropolitan America" ranks Jackson as the 23rd most dangerous city in America.[21] —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.215.62.40 (talk) 01:08, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Downtown Jackson Renaissance subsection

Which are you trying to add and which ones are you removing and why are you removing them? - ALLST☆R echo 05:32, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Downtown Jackson

I'm trying to add more information to Downtown Jackson Ressinance. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cassandra Davis (talkcontribs) 22:45, 6 January 2009 (UTC)

But instead of adding more information, you're removing entries. Why? - ALLST☆R echo 01:50, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Downtown Jackson Renaissance

I got rid of the projects that are already complete, and added the ones that are not yet complete and that are underway. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cassandra Davis (talkcontribs) 15:59, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

[edit] no mention of jackson being the home to retards?

no mention of this town being the home to retards who cancel high school reunions and subject kids to religious weird shit over the intercom system. is that not encyclopedic?

[edit] jackson or jackson city?

I have lived in jackson most of my life and never heard it called "Jackson City." This is the opening line of the article and it should be right. I am removing this unless someone has a problem with it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Marcusyoder (talkcontribs) 18:57, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Civil Rights period

The assertion that Jackson was under martial law for one year following the University of Mississippi riots is not sourced and I believe is not accurate. It doesn't really make any sense, since the university is in Oxford, a hundred miles or so to the north, so why would Jackson residents have removed street signs to hinder the Army?

[edit] Too many lists

This article has too many lists - does every radio station need to be listed, attractions listed twice in Downtown and Historic sites, a lengthy newspaper history? I summarized the material under Redevelopment, as those projects would always be changing. Please consider summarizing other areas of the article.Parkwells (talk) 14:00, 7 November 2011 (UTC)
