[edit] Assessment

Article barely passes B level. lots of detail but needs line note referencing for this long an article. Really needs expansion and breadth in pollution, ecology, infrastructure. Anlace 05:28, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

• Honestly, I think the name of the city should be changed. LOL. It is incorrect, the name is milpitas, but there are 60,000 people, so half must be women, so the name should be trintamilpitas. LOLOL. Sorry :S -Pedro 00:12, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • What do you mean? Milpitas guy 29 June 2005 01:07 (UTC)

• ho well, "trinta mil" means thirty thousand = there must be about 30,000 women in there. "milpitas" means in Portuguese "A Thousand p*ssies". So I think the name is incorrect because there are more than a thousand, there are about 30,000!!!! Just kidding. ;) -Pedro 29 June 2005 01:33 (UTC)

Page history: This article was only like this around New Year 2005. Several people improved the article then. [1] After that I came along, wrote most of the article and went for a featured article nomination. [2] Now it's even better.

Can anyone improve or tell me how to improve this article even more? Milpitas guy 6 July 2005 00:43 (UTC)

What's with "the correct diminutive is actually milpilla"? -ita and -illa are both acceptable diminutives in Spanish.
