message: My goal as a long time resident of Cibolo is to provide a truthful picture of the City.  This should include highlights and positive things and of course, low lights and events that may be viewed as somewhat negative.  There has been a recent effort (as of Dec 2017) to delete items that may show some of the city's few blemishes.  This needs to stop.  I am not sure how to do it, but revising history at any level is bad for all.

replies: text: In 2015, the mayor at the time, Lisa Jackson, resigned her role as mayor of Cibolo a few weeks prior to the election of a new mayor, of which she was not running. The background is that a Cibolo councilman/Mayor Pro Tem and a candidate for District 7 council that year (who was also member of the City’s Planning and Zoning Commission) were involved in a public discussion that resulted in the candidate using slanderous language about the councilman at a public event. After the event, a mediation was held between the 2 men, the Planning and Zoning President, of which there was an agreement set that had the Planning and Zoning member apologize publicly to the councilman. Prior to that mediation, the Mayor Pro Tem wanted to file an ethics complaint against the Planning and Zoning member, but instead felt a public apology would suffice. The mayor was briefed on this agreement by the Planning and Zoning President and the Mayor Pro Tem. However, the two men made a side agreement that did not include a public apology. The mayor was informed of the side agreement prior to the October 13, 2015 City Council meeting. Mayor Jackson resigned her post stating she could not condone back door agreements and risk the trust of the citizens of Cibolo in regards to the outcome affecting the November 2015 election with knowledge of ethics violations sited by the Mayor Pro Tem. See the following reference and fast forward to the 1 hour, 28 minute, 26 second mark of the referenced YouTube video to watch the resignation unfold. However, as the City's champion for ethics (as demonstrated with her push to create an ethics and code of conduct ordinance) and with her own stated knowledge of ethics violations, she did not follow up and pursue said violations bringing into question if there truly were any violations to begin with.

text: Hmm.  I don't really know.  You probably have more of an idea of how big of a thing this was in your city.  Some of it has a few issues with unencyclopedic tone, and maybe some editorializing (it's largely primary sources, so that could be significantly improved).  I'd say ask whoever's removed it.

thread_title:  Revising Cibolo History 

message: As there was somewhat of a controversy about the History section of the Cibolo page, the page reverted to a copy that was fairly bare.  Now since the page was unlocked, I repopulated the page in all areas except the History section.  My goal is to make this the point to revert to in the future if there is more controversy.  I have not updated the History section, but will in the future little by little as I have time.

thread_title:  Updated Page after getting locked down 

message: There has been some recent deletions to information on the Cibolo, TX page.  This wiki page, when built out, provides both city citizens and outsiders a good overview of the City.  For example, the neighborhood and HOA section was deleted.  I restored it as it provides reference for many people when these neighborhoods exist.  If you go to the New York City Wiki page, there are sections on the various neighborhoods in the City.  If one City can have the info, another - no matter the size - should have it too.

replies: text: New York City has one section about the five boroughs.  It also has links to Boroughs of New York City and Neighborhoods in New York City.  It does not have a section about any neighborhoods.  Also note that these boroughs each have populations from about 500,000 to 2.5 million.  You list 47 neighborhoods, with little information about each.  It also only lists when 5 of them began.  The only reference is the city GIS (which is an accurate source, though primary, but does not show notability - and some would argue that it is original research). LittlePuppers (talk) 00:12, 27 June 2018 (UTC)

text: While Wikipedia does not have sections in the New York City article, it actually has a Wikipedia page dedicated to New York City Neighborhoods.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neighborhoods_in_New_York_City  Additionally each borough has a section on their neighborhoods: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Manhattan_neighborhoods , https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Brooklyn_neighborhoods , https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Queens_neighborhoods , https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Bronx_neighborhoods , https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Staten_Island . CiboloBuffalo (talk) 00:12, 15 Jul 2018 (UTC)
replies: text:  Can you find any secondary sources about those neighborhoods? LittlePuppers (talk) 21:17, 15 July 2018 (UTC)

text:  When you say "those neighborhoods", which neighborhoods are you talking about, the ones in Cibolo or the NYC ones?  What type of secondary sources are you looking for?  In the end, I could walk around the city and take pictures of each neighborhood entryway showing the cross streets, but I think that is a bit much.  Or I could reference the builders' websites that show the neighborhoods.  To be honest, in a previous edit I only had the "newer" neighborhoods listed; however, I believed that did not tell the full facts of the city as it left out many other citizens.  In the end, the reason I created this section is to show the history of the City of Cibolo for future residents.  Right now Cibolo is building out and residents are moving in in droves.  Somewhere I reference that Cibolo was the 2nd fastest growing city in the United States at one point in time.  My project is to reference to future area residents how the city built out.  My goal is to show when each neighboorhood developed so that future residents know.  It is an on-going project that is why only a few years are listed.  I might be wrong that it seems like it is relevant for an encyclopedia. CiboloBuffalo (talk) 21:37, 18 Jul 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I was thinking more of the ones in Cibolo.  I wonder if something like "list of neighborhoods in Cibolo" would met the criteria for an article. Looking further, I'm finding this policy (see #7) that says that simple lists of things such as subdivisions shouldn't be used in articles, and relevant things should be added as sourced prose with explanations. LittlePuppers (talk) 03:00, 19 July 2018 (UTC)

text: Looking at this further, I have some significant concerns about notability.  Six leaf park has seven homes.  Town creek south has six homes.  Williams ranch appears to be quite small, as well as in development (so I'm not entirely sure how many homes it will have, but I doubt very many).  I find little reason to believe there is any notability for any of these except perhaps a few of the largest. LittlePuppers (talk) 00:19, 27 June 2018 (UTC)

text: Define "notability".  One could say many of the "notable residents" in each of the location articles are not notable globally.  However, wikipedia allows it.  Therefore, I would think notability is dependent on the community's view of it.  And in the local area (Guadalupe County, San Antonio area, etc.) these areas can be considered of note. CiboloBuffalo (talk) 00:12, 15 Jul 2018 (UTC)
replies: text:  On Wikipedia, something is considered notable if it has been mentioned in (or, in the case of articles, is the topic of at least three) reliable, secondary sources (to show both notability and verifiability). LittlePuppers (talk) 21:17, 15 July 2018 (UTC)

text:  Please correct me is I am wrong, but after reading notable, I see that notability applies to articles and not the content inside of the article.  From what I read, "The criteria applied to the creation or retention of an article are not the same as those applied to the content inside it. The notability guidelines do not apply to contents of articles or lists".  Am I missing something? CiboloBuffalo (talk) 21:44, 18 July 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: You're right, that's more for articles.  Content has to be verifiable (preferably by inline citations to reliable sources, with many exceptions - ex. primary sources are best for quotes, guidelines are stricter for medicine and biographies, etc.), as opposed to original research, it has to give due but not undue weight, be neutral, and numerous other policies (we have a ton of policies, but also a policy to ignore to policies).

replies: text: So I deleted a bunch of stuff. I'm not interested in whitewashing anything, and I have zero interest in Cibolo. However a bunch of the stuff I deleted were copyright violations lifted directly from various websites. Items that aren't of interest to a wider audience, this page needs to speak to anyone in the world not just people living in Cibolo. I hate to say it but nobody cares about the lists of city committees and who are on them, and very detailed directory information on the local parks. This is an encyclopaedia, not a detailed city directory. A lot of the information was just pure trivia and not encyclopaedic or of interest to people. The cities employee of the year award? Not encyclopaedic by any stretch of the imagination. The 1,002nd best suburb to buy a house? Just no. Canterbury Tail talk 16:27, 8 January 2020 (UTC)
