What is the "Radio Frequencies" section about, anyway? Unless someone can add some clarity here, it probably needs to be removed. Thunderbunny 22:37, 14 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

==Importance==

Low importance. As a smaller town the topic of this article is of mostly local interest.

Shifting to mid-importance, as this town is part of the I-24 Corridor of Nashville-Smyrna-Murfreesboro and contains a major regional airport. -- Huntster ^{T • @ • C} 21:48, 22 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Was hoping for some mention of name origin / etymology

I came here based on a place of this name mentioned in Voltaire's Candide (in English). Clearly, this isn't the place to which he referred, but I was disappointed there wasn't mention of where the name comes from, or why it was taken for this place. It would make the article more interesting and be helpful to readers who might land here looking for another place by the same name. 24.240.94.136 (talk) 17:22, 9 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I was also here for the origin of the town's name, Smyrna. The town of Izmir in Turkiye was also called Smyrna in Greek. I doubt if there is a connection to this town in Tennessee; more likely, it is connected to Voltaire's Candide. 2001:1C00:D17:AA00:41E6:3F47:3835:9F9E (talk) 17:37, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
