Incorrect 2020 Demographics
[edit]The 2020 column of the "Demographic profile" table shows a source from 2012 that has no mention of 2020. The percentages are also considerably off. For example, a quick search of Census Bureau data shows Jacksonville's 2020 non-hispanic white population as a plurality (47.8%), not a majority as in the table (51.2%). On a related note, is there any site-wide project in the works to update all of the 2010 and 2000 info that dominates demographics sections of US city, county, etc. pages to 2020? 2600:1700:1608:12B0:9C5B:2F09:C8F0:E85A (talk) 21:49, 6 February 2023 (UTC)

Should I add "Da Bangem" or "Bangem" on the nicknames list?
[edit]Even though there isn't any news sources that uses it, it has been used several times like Reddit and Urban Dictionary to refer to Jacksonville. Should I throw it in the list anyways? Majonezeman (talk) 00:01, 12 October 2023 (UTC)
- No. Those aren't reliable sources. Largoplazo (talk) 00:18, 12 October 2023 (UTC)
Neglected
[edit]Much of the Jacksonville article has become neglected with old photos, information that is no longer relevant, information that is unnecessary and information with zero citations. We have to do better. With that said, I will be reworking the entire article overtime. --Excel23 (talk) 21:24, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
