Notable Residents edit

Can someone please verify who these notable residents are, they don't have articles and one's a science teacher, I would ask that someone explain why they are notable. I live in Durham NC and spend alot of time in Hillsborough and have never heard of any of the three. Thank You --Mr.crabby 20:21, 5 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

I have deleted the notable residents section as no one has explained why these residents are important. Thank You --Mr.crabby 19:25, 10 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Telephone Service? edit

The "Telephone Service" section reads more like an advertisement for a company than it does an encyclopedic article about the city of Mebane.5minutes 15:30, 2 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

I think you're right. I would back you up in removing it. --Mr.crabby ''''' (Talk) 19:29, 2 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Consider it removed. 5minutes 12:36, 3 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Doesn't seem "removed" to me -- and such an interesting anecdote: "You have to visit Mebane, they have this really fascinating set of telephone numbers." Or is it area codes? I've forgotten already.

External Links edit

I took out the link to the "move2thesouth" site (added by user Move2thesouth) in accordance with the Wikipedia Advertising and Conflict of Interest policies. The page linked to is a real-estate site, with little additional information about Mebane. I'm leaning towards deleting "SqueezeThePulp" for the same reason, but possibly it adds enough value to stay? --Motley Fool 18:16, 9 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

Downtown section removal edit

I have been cleaning up the page some and took out the Downtown section instead of having several tags at the top of the section. It was purely POV and unreferenced. Didn't really add to the article much. Article shouldn't become a listing of downtown stores. A good referenced history of the downtown area would probably be good, but as it was then, I just didn't think it should stay in. Thank you -- JoannaSerah (talk) 22:07, 4 January 2012 (UTC)Reply
