Change from:

"Several neighborhoods are lumped together in categories such as "North City", "South City", and "The Central West End"."

To this:

"Several neighborhoods are lumped together in categories such as "North City", "South City", and "The Central West End.""

Fixing: Move the period to behind the quotation marks. 205.155.225.253 (talk) 17:07, 29 February 2024 (UTC)

:{{done}} I have removed the quotation marks entirely because the manual of style says not to use quotes for locations. Thanks. Jamedeus (talk) 01:04, 1 March 2024 (UTC)

Namesake edit request

Chouteau claimed that St. Louis was named for Louis XV, the reigning French monarch at the time of founding, though there is a hypothesis that Louis Saint-Ange de Bellerive, commander of Upper Louisiana, might have named it after his patron saint, Louis IX.

The lake

The "interactive map" is puzzling. It appears to show a lake with streets beneath. On Google Maps I couldn't see any trace of a lake in that area. What is going on? Koro Neil (talk) 21:00, 17 November 2024 (UTC)

Universities

The section St._Louis#Colleges_and_universities starts off with "The city is home to three national research universities", and then lists two! I assume the other is University of Missouri-St. Louis. Can someone who knows confirm? Rojomoke (talk) 15:20, 13 December 2024 (UTC)
