[edit] Just out of curiosity

I figure that many of those who edit this page live in Bradenton. Whoever does live in Bradenton, and has been editing this page, you're doing quite a good job. I've only made a couple contributions myself.RoryS89 03:33, 9 August 2006 (UTC)RoryS89

[edit] "Cities in U.S."

It claims taht its one of something like 1 octillion cities in the U.S.... which is obviously untrue since there are only 300 million people. Not sure what the correct statistic is. 4.247.134.109 01:24, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

That was vandalism. It's been fixed. --Ebyabe 02:08, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Expansion

I added the infobox (which should have been added ages ago), and reorganized this article to something that vaguely resembles the suggested format by Wikipedia:WikiProject Cities. The history section (which was totally absent before) really needs to be expanded by someone familiar with the city (I've passed by Bradenton, but have never been there), and the messy list of famous people is totally unsourced, which needs to be fixed as well. Adding a climate box in the geography section might be a good idea too. There were no references at all for this article when I began; now there are five, which is at least a start. There are also a LOT of redlinks in the main body, which suggests that the entire area is rather neglected, but I have no familiarity with any of them (except for Champs Sports, which I added in.) Hopefully someone has this page on their watchlist and can do something with it, because in its current form it's not much of an article. Horologium t-c 23:26, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
