Talk:Norwalk/Santa Fe Springs station

message: There's a couple issues that need to be addressed:
1. The "Santa Fe Springs Metrolink Express" has no citation or link and I can't find it anywhere on the internet. Is that a previously existing, now-defunct service?
2. The "preceding station" for OC southbound is not always Commerce. Commerce is not served on holidays, weekends, etc. A special note should be added indicating such. Templates make this hard to cover, especially in the sidebox. (Similar deal for Metrolink long-term service interruptions...) Amyipdev (talk) 17:59, 29 April 2023 (UTC)

replies: text:  I think it could be helpful to people. If you're waiting a long time for a train, a restroom is one of the most important things to have. The sign should be enough for such uncontroversial information. Keeping information updated is always a concern on Wikipedia, but the mere possibility that information will become outdated doesn't preclude inclusion in the first place.

message: Should mention Kenneth Adelman is the principal (hired the helicopter and took the photos, etc.). This is the one who lived in Corralitos, California, not the Kenneth Adelman who has an article. The California Adelman has some notability for other things besides the Streisand lawsuit. He founded two tech companies before the Internet bubble and had a publicized fight with PG&E over his solar panel display that made the local press at least. He even was on a ballot for Governor but was not a major candidate. Maybe not enough for his own article yet. Should be able to dig out some sources. W Nowicki (talk) 19:50, 20 May 2013 (UTC)

replies: text: It's obviously advocacy from local environmentalists. Phrases like "History has shown us that removing redwoods from a grove can have adverse affects on the root systems of remaining massive old-growth redwoods; causing death to unintended trees and habitat" are unsourced and there's weasel wording supporting the cause of the environmentalists.

Talk:Lee Gordon (promoter)

message: I'm currently working to get this article up to par. Unfortunately my referenced draft was lost in a data crash, so I've had to start from scratch. 
This subject needs extensive research -- the existing sources contain a lot of contradictory information. Many texts that icnlude "information" about Gordon are based on memoirs by his former business manager Alan Heffernan, whose views on Gordon's personal life are heavily coloured by his anti-drug stance, and these have been repeated in many subsequent texts, especially in reference to Gordon's supposed influence over Johnny O'Keefe.
As far as I can find out, no-one has attempted to look into Gordon's early life in the USA and there are at least two conflicting accounts of his real name and his date and place of birth

Thanks --Korp7 03:58, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: As I recall, pretty much the entire article was a reprint of his bio from his press release. In any case, you've made a claim of notability, which is enough for me to remove the speedy deletion tag. I would suggest, however, that you concentrate on finding verifiable references from reliable sources to back up claims of notability. The best example would be non-trivial press in established magazines or newspapers (non-trivial meaning the press is about Pegz, not him being mentioned in an article that is primarily about someone or something else). Otherwise it'll end up on WP:AFD. If you have any questions, just ask. Precious Roy 10:52, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Acorn, Oakland, California

message: Since there's an ongoing dispute over several articles about Oakland neighborhoods and whether these articles (mostly about very small areas, or in some cases about housing projects), I'd like to propose a guide for which entities should be considered valid for inclusion as neighborhoods.
The Oakland Museum of California has a very nice web page that lets one browse a map of the city and look at neighborhoods and districts. (Caution: requires Flash.) I'd like to suggest that since this map has been compiled by an eminently reputable source, the Museum, that it can serve as a pretty good guide to whether a neighborhood in Oakland actually exists and should be included here. +ILike2BeAnonymous (talk) 06:53, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Suggested guide for inclusion of Oakland neighborhoods 

message: He was shot at 9th Street, between Chester and Center, which is west of Acorn, and a residential neighborhood, not the projects.  
Take a look at http://abcnews.go.com/Archives/video/aug-22-1989-huey-newton-killed-10651274 and about 30 seconds in, they show blood on the sidewalk of his shooting location.  Then take a look at google maps.  On the north side of the street, you can very clearly see many of the same houses, and the light posts on that street.
I know it's nitpicking about the block of difference, but Mandela (then Cypress) is a pretty big dividing line between the neighborhoods.
