Why is the 2017 shooting in the see also section? it should be in the history section. Kennev123 (talk) 02:16, 18 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

 Not done: The link is in the See also section because that's what the See also section is for. As for why there isn't any mention in the History section, see Wikipedia:Summary style; the history section cannot contain every single event that has happened in the city without unnecessarily bloating the article. The event is mentioned (albeit briefly) in the independent articles Timeline of Las Vegas and History of Las Vegas. Liu1126 (talk) 03:08, 18 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

This edit involves the opening sentence of the article. Please change the original: Las Vegas,[1] often known simply as Vegas, is the most populous city in the U.S. state of Nevada and the county seat of Clark County., to Las Vegas,[2] often known simply as Vegas, is the most populous city in the U.S. state of Nevada and the seat of Clark County. for clarity and reduced repetition of "county" in the lead, thank you. 97.77.64.90 (talk) 18:56, 18 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
