Update re Freeholder term end dates[edit]

The "Expires in 2005" Freeholders should probably be updated WRT who replaced them/didn't replace them. 68.39.174.238 23:13, 3 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Info was updated with latest term expiration dates. Alansohn 01:52, 4 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

They've changed again, someone with better info than me needs to update... 80.43.94.114 23:09, 29 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for File:Cumb Seal.gif[edit]

File:Cumb Seal.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 23:26, 2 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Unnecessary information in opening paragraph[edit]

The second sentence in the article is a description of how the County's population has changed over the last 20 years. I do not believe that this is at all helps to "briefly summarize the most important points covered in [this] article", and therefore does not follow MOS:OPEN, which repeatedly advises that "[e]ditors should avoid lengthy paragraphs and overly specific descriptions – greater detail is saved for the body of the article." As the actual decennial census count of the county is provided later in the article, I see no reason for it to be discussed at length at the outset of the article. Simply put, it is perplexing why it should be be in the introduction. The introduction should give the current population and move on.--Butterboy (talk) 22:41, 11 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
