List of neighborhoods

Some of the areas listed in the “neighborhoods within Wheeling city limits” are in fact outside of the city limits, and are separate townships and villages with their own governments and elected officials, such as Benwood, Triadelphia, and Bethlehem. It is incorrect to state that these areas are “neighborhoods within Wheeling’s city limits. They may be considered to be within the Wheeling metropolitan area, but they are not part of the city. This needs correction/clarification. 2601:54A:7F:AF20:B1C1:F11D:DF14:3180 (talk) 22:42, 21 June 2022 (UTC)

Montage

I'd like to propose changing the images in the infobox to reflect something more like this. The angle of the present photo for Wheeling station does not look good in the infobox since it stretches the ground, making the subject harder to see. Chapline Street Row Historic District is a recognizable part of the city and likewise is more fit in the infobox than the North Wheeling Historic District. The current photo for Centre Market is hard to see in the current layout, so I'd advocate for a wider image as shown. Please provide input as to what you believe should go in the montage. Thanks! 636Buster (talk) 22:26, 30 April 2023 (UTC)

I am 100% fine with the new center market street photo. It does look a lot better in my opinion. However, i feel as of the other train station photo isnt better due to the fact that some of the building is cropped out in the photo proposed here on the talk page. As for WesBanco Arena, I believe it's an impotant landmark that should be shown. WeaponizingArchitecture | scream at me 17:08, 28 May 2023 (UTC)
