Talk:New York – New Jersey Line War

message: The page title uses a hyphen between New York and New Jersey, but the first mention in the article uses a slash.  Which form is correct?  --Merovingian (t) (c) 16:48, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

message: Anyone have any idea what the stuff in the graphic is talking about?  We don't have any mention of who Hendrick Decker is, why we should care about him or his brother Jan, or how they relate to the Line War.  Why is this sign where it is? —Cleared as filed. 20:39, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

message: Why isn't there a category for other border disputes, like the Ohio/Michigan conflict and the Mass./RI dispute?  NoSeptember 20:50, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

replies: text: Toledo War and Toledo Strip covers the one, but it isn't organized and easy to find if you don't know what to look for.  I think it would be nice to have a list or category to make all of these disputes easy to find.  NoSeptember 21:13, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Have fun with List of U.S. military history events#Bloodless boundary disputes, although these are only post-nationhood. (See also: Erie Triangle, New Hampshire Grants, Republic of Indian Stream and Sabine Free State for a couple others, depending on your definition of border dispute. :) Also, there maybe be some benefit to separating international disputes from intranational disputes. :) jengod 22:14, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

thread_title: Other border disputes

message: I restored the reference to Liberty Island as its omission is not an improvement. As the reference (rephrased to exclude the possibility that someone thinks there is an implicit legal claim} indicates, there has been argumentation (maybe some tongue-in-cheek), yet all this is further explored in the Liberty Island article. Thus the reference is entirely appropriate and enriching. Ekem 23:29, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I disagree.  There is no border dispute, despite what some people from New Jersey wish to believe.  It really doesn't have anything to do with the New York–New Jersey boundary dispute that is the subject of this article.  Anyone else have any input? —Cleared as filed. 05:30, 6 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Any issues about Liberty Island are unrelated to the New York-New Jersey Line War. That sentence doesn't belong here. - Nunh-huh 05:34, 6 October 2005 (UTC)

text: Well, there have been at least two other real disputes in addition to the non-dispute about Liberty Island.  Why shouldn't we have all of it for context?--Pharos 07:00, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

message: As determined via Google Maps, the coordinates of the original points are 41.666667N 75.05345W (western) and 41.0N 73.8935W (eastern).  However, I'm not sure that these values are absolutely correct.  There appears to be some discrepency between the positions as plotted on google maps and the map data.  Confluence points don't quite match up with real-world locations.  --ChrisRuvolo (t) 23:28, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
