Etymology?

What happened to the section on Etymology? That’s a rhetorical question as I know what happened. Five years ago, it was correct with “reputable” source citations; and then someone messed with it… and then someone else… and then someone else until it was so “wrong”, it was deleted altogether. As a result, the current minimalist section on the founding and naming of the outpost and eventual town is relegated to “a Duke” and a “town in Spain”. And the only citation is the “historical foundation”; typically defined as a social club of retirees who read a couple of books and were born and raised there. That is not a reputable source citation. I’m not from New Mexico and frankly this kind of amateurish history is driving me away from Wikipedia but someone who cares should care more. It’s embarrassing. 72.218.205.71 (talk) 00:23, 12 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Religious groups

Check the 2 parts/sections about religious groups - both are described as "the second largest" and that is not possible. If it is meant to be described as the Abrahamitic religions it needs to be clarified. 83.248.75.122 (talk) 08:46, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Could we move to just "Albuquerque"?

I know proposals have been attempted before, but could we move to just Albuquerque? I personally think It's a good idea. GabrielPenn4223 (talk) 14:47, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Seeing as you already had an answer to this question at WP:TEAHOUSE, I think you know how a request for a page move will go. I would personally oppose such a move given WP:USPLACE. GSK (talk • edits) 14:57, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

95% of the users in a move poll from a US place with state to US place without state would oppose it. GabrielPenn4223 (talk) 15:06, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If you're confident about those statistics, then why make the request at all? GSK (talk • edits) 15:10, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What poll?

-== Albuquerque Rapid Transit (ART) Discussion ==
-I think we need to look into the possibility of the city's "Albuquerque Rapid Transit" project having some mention in the "Urban Issues" section of the article. The ART project has proven controversial and has been covered extensively in local media in the area. It was a hot button issue in the most recent mayoral election in 2017.
-Regards.

-== Chihuahuan Desert? ==
-{{user|John from Idegon}} wrote "If you disagree with sourced content, you need to provide reliable secondary sources in a discussion on the article talk page and attempt to gain consensus" but most of the uses of [[Chihuahuan Desert]] that that IP removed where not sourced.  The sourcing for Alburquerque being part of the Chihuahan Desert region is pretty flimsy.  The "60 Hikes" book says "This hike skirts a bosque riparian forest within a finger of Chihuahuan desert that extends north to Albuquerque", which suggests that a small sliver of the area by the Rio Grande south of town might be considered Chihuahuan, but not much more.  Other sources suggest the northern end of the Chihuahuan is the Socorro area (downriver a bit).  So I have to agree with the IP's edits, generally; Albuquerque is central, not southern NM and is mostly outside the northern extent of the Chihuahuan.  Some subtle refinement may be in order. [[User:Dicklyon|Dicklyon]] ([[User talk:Dicklyon|talk]]) 03:26, 29 December 2019 (UTC)
-Reviewing the edits, I decided to revert to the IP's version for now.  More precise updates are welcome, but the extra half-dozen mentions of Chihuahuan Desert do not seem warranted. [[User:Dicklyon|Dicklyon]] ([[User talk:Dicklyon|talk]]) 03:30, 29 December 2019 (UTC)
