Copyright violations

Hi everyone - I had to remove a major portion of the introduction and the entire geography section of this article due to complete copyright violations - someone cut and paste and added it to the article from this website. Please take a look at our copyright policy - this type of copy and pasting is not welcome (and is a blatant copyright violation and illegal...). Thanks for your understanding and I look forward to further expanding of this article without copy and pasting from elsewhere! SarahStierch (talk) 01:56, 25 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Town Name

This page describes a different original meaning of the Algonquin name than Cohasset, Massachusetts. I was not able to find a source to clarify which of the two translations are correct. My inclination is to accept the Massachusetts article and suggest that this town was named after it. Both definitions could be correct, as the MA article suggests the derivation of the name is from "Conahasset", meaning "long rocky place". Any ideas?

Changing “Is a census-designated place” to “Was a census-designated place”

According to Cal Fire’s official map and statistics, the entirety of Cohasset’s town has now burned down with everyone evacuated and no fatalities. The town is effectively gone until repopulation, if it ever repopulates. Should it be changed? SpectralIon (talk) 15:39, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not everything within the borders shown on the map is burned. As of today only 134 structures have been confirmed destroyed by Cal Fire which, even if all of those structures were homes in Cohasset, would account for less than half of the households listed in the 2010 census. I've seen video of two homes surrounded by charred trees that fire personnel saved by bulldozing the vegetation around them (they have my deepest gratitude), and those were over a mile from the nearest paved road. I'm obviously not a Wikipedia editor, but I hope the guidelines require more direct proof before switching to the past tense. 2601:640:CC01:7B35:1AB:D821:D23E:BC0D (talk) 01:49, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, only saw the reply after some of my follow up edits. I changed "Most Likely" to "Partially". SpectralIon (talk) 03:15, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
