Comma

This title needs to be changed to remove the stray comma after North Carolina. Gcjnst (talk) 19:38, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This was discussed at WP:ERRORS this morning (go into the history, it's now been removed) and found to be correct. It's an appositive.

Wehwalt (talk) 19:51, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It is not an appositive. Roanoke, North Carolina is a simple adjective. Do you drive a blue, car? Gcjnst (talk) 14:10, 18 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

OK. So did you look at the discussion? Here. Wehwalt (talk) 16:04, 18 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
