message: ...is an unsourced section, which lately has become a site for adding Ponix Laboratories. Without sources to establish importance, there is nothing to support the notability of the numerous businesses, camps, etc. listed here. As such it's likely to be used for promotion of individual entities as well as a 'chamber of commerce' section, promotional on the whole. 99.137.209.90 (talk) 15:44, 18 October 2011 (UTC)

replies: text: Xiii1408, you would need to provide references from reliable sources to support the statements, and a direct link to the company web site would be considered spam. --Nuujinn (talk) 19:40, 18 October 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not convinced the section should exist it all, but as it is it's pretty dreadful with much of it promotional. Witch Hallow Farm perhaps should be in the article, I'm not sure about the state forest, and I can't see justification for the rest - pizza house, Ponix (which brought me here and which seems pretty unnotable by our criteria, a search turned up a total of 3 hits, all to Wikipedia, and nothing in Google News), a beach, etc Dougweller (talk) 11:32, 21 October 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Points of interest

message: Does not need references. I'm taking the tag and the existing refs out. The reason is that this is a list of articles with one explanatory phrase much like a disambig. It is the same type as "See also." We don't put  refs on disambig and see also items because they are blue-linked to the article. The link stands in place of the reference. In this list, what is the ref suppose to prove? That this person is notable? That is a personal opinion and we don't ref personal opinions. The fact that an article exists is reason enough to list it if in fact we are going to keep lists of notable persons. I wouldn't, but I don't decide. Every person in that list has a blue link. We don't require references on material that is sufficiently blue-linked. If someone puts a name in and someone else disagrees on notability then we discuss notability. The information on the person does not go in the list, it goes in the linked articles. The descriptive phrase is taken from that article.Branigan 00:21, 15 October 2012 (UTC)
thread_title: Notable residents section

message: This is not WP style. It reads like a travellogue. Needs to be rewritten. As for the requested expansion, well, what is a point of interest, like who is a notable person, is a matter of opinion. If you are going to place such a tag, ought you not to say what the section lacks? The tag should come out or be elucidated when the rewriting is done. I have not checked for plagiarism but I bet if I did I would find it a copy. For the references, well, do we need those on this subsection? What exactly would we be referencing? But, if we expand each item into a description I suppose we would need refs on the descriptions.Branigan 00:39, 15 October 2012 (UTC)
