Talk:Brooklyn Heights

message: This page was apparently moved from Brooklyn Heights to Brooklyn Heights, Brooklyn in 2004.  I am at a total loss to understand why. :-)
Is there a "Brooklyn Heights" anywhere else in the world that might reasonably be confused with the Brooklyn Heights in Brooklyn, New York?  If so I have never heard of it.  I don't see the need for disambiguation.
I propose moving this page either back to "Brooklyn Heights" or to "Brooklyn Heights, New York".  Comments?

replies: text: A year later, I've had to move it again.  Someone moved it back months ago, claiming that it needs to match the  "naming convention" of Brooklyn neighborhoods, but such rules are made to be broken.  See Philadelphia versus Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, or New York City versus Albany, New York.  Using Brooklyn twice in the title is redundant and there is no other "Brooklyn Heights" whereas there are many other Williamsburgs, etc. Uris 01:23, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

message: The subsection named "Development" should be renamed "19th Century". First this would be more descriptive of the following paragraphs. Second, this would match the "20th Century" subsection heading. What do others think?68.37.168.37 (talk) 01:01, 30 March 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, I wrote a fair amount of the article (around 40%), and I think the title of that section is in line with the title of the previous section "Early settlement". The section is, after all, about how the area developed, which just happened to coincide with the 19th century.  I'd prefer to keep it as it is.  I'm more concerned about filling in the gap between the end of the Revolutionary War and 1814 - certainly something of interest most have occurred during that time, but the sources I was working from didn't have anything I thought worthy of inclusion.  Perhaps you might be able to do some research and fill in that gap a little? BMK (talk) 01:25, 30 March 2016 (UTC)
