Population comparison in lede

Latest comment: 2 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The phrase "and has more people than all of Northern Canada and Greenland combined" might be interesting, but I don't see why such a comparison is needed in the lede. The lede is supposed to be a short summary of the most important points. I'd suggest removing it from there as an inappropriate tangent. (I have no objection to moving the phrase somewhere down in the article if context is appropriate.) -- Infrogmation (talk) 02:55, 28 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Opening image

As of December 27, 2024, the opening image of this page is of a place on the Kenai Peninsula, nowhere near Anchorage. Perhaps someone can find a public domain image of the city proper. 152.117.104.206 (talk) 17:33, 27 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
