Change[edit]

The line 'Apinac is the extreme south-west of the Loire department, 41.7 kilometres (25.9 mi) southwest of Saint-Étienne.', is mentioned in the geography section. What is the need to revert back changes to duplicate it into introduction of the article, Apinac? Can you please explain, Dr. B? Anup Mehra ^✈ 11:13, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Because the lead is supposed to contain content which summarizes the article, read WP:LEAD. A brief indication of where it is in relation to a major city initially is very important.♦ Dr. Blofeld 11:28, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Okay! And thanks for the link. I read that. The commune had people counts of 392 in 2010(As said in Intro. with no reference). History section says, it had 392 in 2009 with a reliable source. Shouldn't 2010 in the intro be renamed to 2009? If yes, then please. One more thing, please don't get it as someone is stalking on you. I was just going through the random articles and i found this, a single sentenced article with a reference leading to no where. Since then, within no time, article has changed tremendously.

French wiki says 401 for 2010, but I can only find the 2009 census here. Oh, I'm quite certain by looking at your editing history that you like to use the random article feature, the article is too far in the past and too obscure to make it looks like you're stalking me! And as you'll have noticed, the majority of articles are utter trash needing expansion as documented on my user page.. Just remember though that settlements and most geo features are usually speedily kept on here, so if you can't find and sources for anything give me a bell on my talk page :-]♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:43, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ah! Sure. That was encouraging. Anup Mehra ^✈ 15:41, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Climate[edit]

The claim that the Apinac climate is "hot" does not jive with the chart that has 72 F as its highest monthly average high temperature. Where the article says "average annual temperatures vary", it appears to mean "average monthly temperatures vary". Indymemerson1 (talk) 12:26, 30 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
