Talk:Greeneville, Tennessee

Notable native
who is Bradley Max Smith and why does he think he's deserving of being called a famous Greenevillian?

Doak
Doak House is in Tusculum, not Greeneville, right? Has that always been the case? I was doing some quick fact checking to add citations to the "famous residents" section, and I can't find anything connecting the Doak family to Greeneville proper. Rather, Tusculum is often referenced, as is Washington County (in association with Washington College Academy). This begs the question: should we Greenevillians really lay claim to Doak as a resident? Ashleighraye 20:20, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

I am pretty sure Doak lived in Tusculum, but along time ago his home could have been in Greeneville I am only saying that it could have been, I haven't found anything that says it was in Greeneville but you never know. I hope that helps. Jesus Lover0000 (talk) 06:03, 2 August 2013 (UTC)

Greeneville Events
I'm new to editing on Wiki so I'm afraid of causing an error in the code, but can someone add some of the local events like the Iris Festival and the Greene County Fair? —Preceding unsigned comment added by ChibiKris (talk • contribs) 12:45, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

wasn't there a murder og a whole famili in this place in 1997?
I remember that a family of 4 where shot by teenagers who where satanists in 1997. Only the son survived. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Special:Contributions/ (talk)

Yes, it was the Lillelid Murders case. See http://www.greeneville.com/trial/ Bshow 18:05, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

Inconsistency between lead, infobox and demographics
This article is demographically inconsistent and needs attention as follow ... On using the American FactFinder site, and the search term "Greeneville town, Tennessee" we find the total population is 15,062 and other demographics are in Community Facts:GreenVille Tennessee
 * The lead reports "[t]he population was 15,198 at the 2010"
 * The Infobox (Infobox settlement) reports "Population=15,198" (2012) without using a citation in the existing parameter of Infobox settlement
 * The demographics section reports "As of the census[1] of 2000, there were 15,198 people, 6,641 households, and 4,097 families residing in the town" where [1] is "American FactFinder". United States Census Bureau. Retrieved 2008-01-31 which is a redirected link to American FactFinder

 * I fixed the above but someone from the US should check my work. Note that I have used an area of 14.9 square mile but I am unable to find a source for such an area. If you find a source, add it to the  in the  parameter --  Senra (talk) 19:25, 22 February 2013 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the updates. Many U.S. cities' articles probably have the same problem, as anonymous editors are prone to update one number, but not the others.  Bms4880 (talk) 21:04, 22 February 2013 (UTC)
 * No worries. Incidentally, it occurs to me that there are reliably sourced historic census population figures available for the US. For example, University of Virginia Library:Historical Census Browser, which could be used to populate a table such as is done here -- Senra (talk) 21:28, 22 February 2013 (UTC)
