"total area of 2.7 km² (1.0 mi²). 0.9 km² (0.4 mi²) of it is land and 1.8 km² (0.7 mi²) of it is water. " How exactly does this work? 0.4 mi² + 0.7 mi² does not add up to 1.0 mi². I realize this is due to a round-off problem, but since the towm most likely was originally surveyed in miles, that total area measurement is more likely to be accurate- did these numbers get converted to square kilometers, then back to square miles?
 * This is a round-off problem. The total area probably is a little bit more than 1.0 square miles, maybe 1.04 miles (which was rounded of to 1.0). Maybe 0.37 square miles (rounded off to 0.4) is land and 0.67 square miles (rounded of to 0.7) is water. -- Robert Weemeyer 10:58, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

Too much space given to Whitefield - other areas to explore
While Whitefield's curse is dramatic, there is little evidence it was effective. In the context of this article, too much space is given to him. What has been the relation of the town to the county? What was its economy during the slavery years? And after? The town has mostly white residents, but the county is nearly 30% black - what does that reflect? Higher costs in town? The state's major development has taken place in the Piedmont - Charlotte, Research Triangle, etc. Relation to that? Wilmington developed as larger; did it have a bigger harbor, closer access to more cotton plantations?Parkwells (talk) 17:37, 24 April 2014 (UTC)
