lotta copyvio stuff in here

Needs MAJOR work/go for FA

This is gonna get a massive rewrite. It's not just a copyvio, it's waving it's fist at copyvio... This version is what it used to look like. Ugly, one huge copyvio. I think Stratford's history is enough to make this a surefire FA article and will see how close I can get it to that. If anyone wants to help out, it's occured to me that the fairly unique history of Stratford--ranging from the military connections with the SAEP/Sikorsky, it's role in aviation, the Raybestos pollution mess, and it's role in theater arts--not to mention all the Puritanical history--gives this enough meat to be a FA canidate. rootology (T) 00:15, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

Stephen King

I added this a while ago myself, before I knew WP:V. I'd always heard this endlessly and took it as fact. Can anyone cite it? "Stratford was also home to Stephen King, the famed horror author, who lived there as a young child. Stratford is often said to be the inspiration for King's novel It." Easy to cite that he lived there--but for Stratford being the inspiration for "It"...? rootology (T) 07:47, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

F4U Corsair

The production of this aircraft was a major undertaking and employed many Stratford residents. The monument at the airport is a landmark known by thousands of people in the town, if not everyone, and is no less significant than (say) the Shakespeare Theatre. The section in question on the page is for Stratford's military significance, and this plane is most certainly part of that history along with the helicopters and tank engines. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Markvs88 (talkcontribs) 18:13, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
