message: The name is certainly being applied to this intersection commonly, and I do believe that DNAinfo is a reliable local news source in Chicago, despite John from Idegon's recent reversion of my edit. Paradoxsociety (review) 20:55, 18 April 2015 (UTC)
replies: text:   What basis are you using to determine reliability of that site, or the other one you added? Chicago is a big city, with two daily newspapers,  several television stations and a national magazine dedicated just to the subject of the city. If the viewpoint you are trying to get in the article were significant,  surely at least one of the above named actually reliable sources would have mentioned it.John from Idegon (talk) 02:06, 19 April 2015 (UTC)
replies: text:  My basis is that I'm a Chicagoan and I read both of those sites on a regular basis to get my news. Since that wasn't good enough for you I have added a link to a video of a FOX reporter referring to yet another Chicago intersection as "six corners" from this morning. We good now?

replies: text: I lived in Chicago for years too, but I base nothing I add to Wikipedia on my personal knowledge and neither should you.  In case you have never read policies around here, everything in the encyclopedia must be based on information previously published in reliable sources.  Lose the chip on your shoulder; no one is picking on you. John from Idegon (talk) 20:02, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Who are you to dictate how I should base my additions to Wikipedia? I base most of my edits on my personal knowledge - but if and only if I know they can be backed up with a legitimate source. Do I always have the perfect source readily available? Not always, no. But if I'm adding something that I believe has the potential to be disputed, I will at least try to leave something behind so that hopefully someone else can come along, do their own research, and improve upon what I've started. It saddens me to find people who will simply revert productive changes without even taking the time to Google for a "more" legitimate source if the current one is not to their satisfaction. And yes, in my nearly 10 years of editing Wikipedia I have found time to read and understand the policies, thanks. Paradoxsociety (review) 01:06, 30 May 2015 (UTC)
