Mt. Eden

[edit]

Mt. Eden is not a city. It is in Hayward and has been for many many years. Neanderthalprimadonna 00:23, 25 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed the Culture Section

[edit]

I cleaned up the the "culture" section because other notable bands come from the East Bay not just punk rock you silly emo kids... learn your heritage ;) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.105.239.206 (talk) 13:30, 23 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Outer and inner east bay

[edit]

gsearch: 137 uses of outer east bay, 50 in google news; 263 uses of inner east bay, 67 in google news. not a common phrase, but may be useful. term is used in "san francisco bay area" article, and since the east bay article here is a major article, the article section on the east bay in the sfbay article should be a small stub (maybe just a referral?), so as not to duplicate data. maybe the city list can incorporate this concept as displayed in the sfbay article.

There are reliable sources for outer and inner. Here are a few:
There are many more! Binksternet (talk) 16:40, 29 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
[edit]

I deleted all the external links per WP:EL. None of them were solely about the East Bay, and the major ones such as EBMUD and AC Transit have their own articles. Binksternet (talk) 16:40, 29 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

What does 'inner' mean?

[edit]

On the list of East Bay towns a number of them have the word 'inner' listed afterwards parenthetically. What is this supposed to mean? Thanks.

OK, prior to actually posting this I read the Cities intro paragraph I see where you are going. That said, having lived exclusively in 'inner' East Bay towns all my 53 years I've never hear that term, and as listed city-by-city, it makes no sense. (Many cities that touch the bay are not designated 'inner'). Suggest ditching the whole inner concept. --Fizbin (talk) 17:45, 15 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Adding race and progressive background under "Culture"

[edit]

Hey! I will be adding notes on progressive and liberal movements that the East Bay is famous for. Since these have, and still do, affect our day-to-day lives in the Bay, I think it is an important addition to the Culture section of the Bay. Ksundaramurthy (talk) 21:41, 5 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The East Bay also has a rich history. One of the revolutionary movements founded in Oakland was the Black Panther organization. [1] [2][3][4][5] [6][7]

Primary topic Mrbeastmodeallday (talk) 06:00, 14 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

(Even after seeing Dohn's chart below, I'm still kinda shocked that with so many other bays in the world, we have a cardinal direction practically all to ourselves.)--NapoliRoma (talk) 22:12, 14 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Note also: according to the article, "With a population of roughly 2.5 million in 2010, it [the East Bay] is the most populous subregion in the Bay Area." Doesn't that make this a primary topic, considering how little importance the other items are? --Comment by Selfie City (talk about my contributions) 00:12, 18 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
