Sorry those images I took are so ugly. They look like they were taken in the 1970s but they werent. :-/ Koyaanis Qatsi 21:50 6 Jun 2003 (UTC)
- They do look a little bit "vintage", but they're better than nothing. ;) Nice job. --Dante Alighieri 21:51 6 Jun 2003 (UTC)
Is the big long Spanish name still in force? I thought that most of it had just been dropped. -Smack 23:03 1 Jul 2003 (UTC)
- Searching the official city web site for the Spanish name gives only a few historical hits, and the current city charter and the city seal use "The City of Los Angeles", so I moved the Spanish name to the history section. 130.188.8.9 07:50, 16 Sep 2003 (UTC)
To alleviate size stress on this page, I moved the history to a separate page. 209.245.203.129 01:15, 26 Sep 2003 (UTC)
I'm having a bit of a problem with the "religion" section. The assertion that "no religion was founded there" is troublesome, and the rest of the section is amazingly non-informative. I actually know less about the major religious factions in Los Angeles after reading this. I will research and augment. - Feedle 16:46, 29 Sep 2003 (UTC)

oil
I believe that I have read that California lead the nation (and was a significant portion of world output) in oil output, in one year in the early 20th century -- perhaps 1923 ? I think this was driven by huge finds near and in Los Angeles. This article only alludes to oil discoveries in the late nineteenth century.
