List of restaurants
I am not normally a fan of lists within articles, but it would seem that a list of the BBQ restaurants would be in order, considering it is such a part of the culture and city identity. Until I moved here, I didn't realize that people really did drive 1-2 hours from Greensboro, Charlotte, etc. just to eat BBQ. And I am not just talking about the Festival. Before I would include a list, I wanted to get some input and see if there were policy objections. Pharmboy (talk) 18:59, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Ok, I added a bunch of images and updated several things. I guess I am the only one editing the page.   D ENNIS B ROWN (T) (C)  19:48, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

Cathedral
Does anyone have a picture of the Anglican Orthodox Cathedral in Lexington? --Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 14:33, 11 August 2010 (UTC)

Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page
Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

 * Triggered by  on the local blacklist
