There is a discrepancy regarding the population of Comox. Neither statistic has a source. If anyone with more knowledge would please clear this up, it'd be great. Also, it seems that much of the information in the Culture section would more appropriately belong in the Comox Valley or Courtenay articles. - Hoolme
There is also a discrepancy regarding the Lorne being the oldest licensed pub in BC. The Six Mile pub in View Royal was established in 1855 and licensed in 1856 and is still in operation today. It's 22 years older than the Lorne. http://www.sixmilepub.com/history.htm —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.48.86.117 ( talk) 04:53, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
This article reads as a tourist information brochure. The dates, telephone numbers and prices for local events does not follow the Wikipedia format. This is not the Comox Tourist Infocentre webpage, it should be encyclopedic. I recommend an immediate cleanup. -- Mezaco 22:33, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
I'm confused, is this article about the Comox Valley to Comox City? As some of the schools listed, such as GP Vanier, are not in Comox City. -- PrinceScamp 07:22, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
As far as I'm aware, Comox is part of SD71, and many Comox students attend schools in Courtenay. If you feel the need to edit, however, you are free to do so. -- Mayalou6999 ( talk) 19:59, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:Comox which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. — RMCD bot 05:29, 7 March 2014 (UTC)
The Kahkahmatsis aka Salmon Arm Nation are mentioned in several sources used for this article, including the history provided by the present-day K'ómoks Nation in their 2014 document cited here. [1] If the problem is that there is no present Nation, it's because they almagamated with the K'ómoks in 1940 and the Nation no longer exists. Otherwise I am unsure of what the problem with mentioning the Kahkahmatsis is. Guinness323 ( talk) 05:11, 17 July 2014 (UTC)
The information deleted on this edit really belongs on the Comox Indian Band page, or K'omoks page, as it concerns a reserve at Campbell River, and not at Comox. Skookum1 ( talk) 07:45, 18 July 2014 (UTC)

The paragraph about Drake should be pulled or changed to "one discredited idea suggested that Sir Francis Drake visited the area in 1579." Several references can be provided. The accepted sites are Oregon Dunes for Drake's landfall and Drakes Bay for New Albion. The US National Park Service has studied this matter and awarded the Drakes Bay site a National Historic Landmark designation.
Comox Bay has been included in Fringe theories on the location of New Albion MikeVdP ( talk) 06:28, 2 March 2016 (UTC)
The article says "some historians believe" that Drake landed at Comox Bay. That's a rather vague statement; the address is a bit misleading to suggest that Drake's landing here is generally accepted as historical fact. Perhaps handle this as main articles on other geographical places that are associated with fringe theories. Also: "...found a good port somewhere along the northwest coast of North America and stayed for several months while restocking supplies and trading..." Several months? Why would he land for several months just to restock supplies and trade? Wouldn't it be more like a few weeks? Pcvjamaica ( talk) 20:41, 17 March 2016 (UTC)
