What should be done about the History section? It's obviously [and barely humorously] fake. --GeofFMorris 05:13, 20 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

History[edit]

Added the history section and a couple of external links.Derek Spalla 23:27, 13 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Famous Citizens[edit]

I edited this article to take out the rapper M.V.P out of the Geography section and created a section for famous citizens. I'm not even sure that the rapper was born here, but I certainly could be out of the know. Therefore I put a "citation needed" next the to the rapper's entry.Derek Spalla 22:32, 13 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Name[edit]

Why is there a citation needed for the gun being dropped from the name? Wouldn't it be intuitive from the link and the current name? Akubhai 15:34, 20 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Macland[edit]

One day at tennis practice, my coach was telling me and everyone else about being a child (he's in his 40's I guess) and what is the mailing address of Powder Springs (god, spoiled where I live) used to be Macland. It was renamed Powder Springs when McHeachern became high school college whatever from a 1-12 school. Should this be added, as well as information about the old country Lost Mountain store (which is now a bank spawned off of the historic building. it surrounded by a highway, a strip mall, a Publix, and Walgreens, and a bunch of other junk. That was a random fact. :)) Quiet Andrew! The McCarvers are coming! (talk) 04:56, 4 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, never mind, I'll add that to the county article ( if laziness doesn't take over) Be peaceful. Be a Dalai Lama. (talk) 23:32, 17 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
