Upload

I've added alot to the article and would appreciate someone taking some pictures of local sites in Kinston. I'm trying to get this article to WP:GA status. Thanks. AgnosticPreachersKid (talk) 11:17, 28 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This is almost a nine year old entry, but I just want to say AgnosticPreachersKid, that I have decided to see your goal of getting this article to WP:GA status through. I'll be going around to get photos this weekend, most likely.PimpSugar (talk) 20:49, 26 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Notable People

Just wanted to make a running log of the entries I've removed from the Notable People section due to either being unable to actually cite a reference to Kinston being their hometown and/or because they aren't exactly 'notable' to Kinston. I just submitted an edit about twenty minutes ago to the page, and here are people that I've thus far removed (I'll try to put a reason for each one):

Alfred Flowers - (Could only find one website that listed his birthplace as Kinston. May need to do some more digging on this one.)
Donna White (Donna Hudson) - (Could not find any information on Donna White and Kinston beyond her Wikipedia page)
Sherry Jones - (Sherry Jones is only notable for her book's controversy and her own website makes no mention of Kinston.)
Maxwell Becton - (I actually did some digging into newspaper archives for this one and couldn't find any mention of Kinston in his obituary or the divorce proceeding articles.)
Richard McCoy Jr. - (Could only find references to Jones County, not Kinston.)
