Talk:Bobby Gray (boxer)

message: His boxing record says his first match was in 1922.  If he had been 18 at the time of his first match, he would now be 107 years old.  I can't find any sources about this boxer besides his boxrec, so I am suspicious of claims that he's still alive, simply because of that projected age.  Thus, I moved him out of the category living persons.  If anyone has any information on this at all, please correct this.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Romnempire (talk • contribs) 19:05, 12 April 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Lyons, New York

message: The county seat designation will currently be with the Town of Lyons although it is actually located in the former village of Lyons, now a hamlet after being dissolved on December 31, 2015. Once the hamlet is classified as a census-designated place by the U.S. Census Bureau in the next couple years, the county seat designation will be moved back to the CDP. Regardless of the case, the county seat is still mentioned in both articles. Mld74 (talk) 16:23, 1 January 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Malone, New York

message: I cut the reference to: "Franklin county is still considered a "statistic county" where the voting populus is measured by prisoner count and how that aligns to the controlling party for the county." because it's incorrect. If it is referring to the state legislative districts, all states prior to 2010 used the prison populations when drawing districts. If it is referring to the county legislative districts, it is incorrect because the county is one of 13 in NY that removes the prison population when drawing county legislative districts.Peterwagner (talk) 14:04, 1 June 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Mamakating, New York

message: Regarding the quote: The town of Mamakating was organized on March 7, 1788 and was the first township of Sullivan County.
Mamakating may have been the first township of Sullivan County, but 1788 it was still in Ulster County. Sullivan County didn't cleave off from Ulster until 1809. In 1788, was Mamakating the same size and shape it is today, with Frantzdale (then Homowack, now Spring Glen, nicknamed "County Line") straddling the border of Mamakating and Wawarsing? 
Here's a 1758 map that shows early patents and precincts in what is now Orange County, Rockland County, parts of Sullivan and Ulster Counties, and northern New Jersey. You may have to join the group to see it, though. Back then, the size and shape was indeed different. Look in the photo album section: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ocgsny/photos/album/365043629/pic/1267068899/view?picmode=large&mode=tn&order=ordinal&start=1&dir=asc

thread_title:  History clarification? 

message: The history section was added at https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mamakating,_New_York&diff=103978006&oldid=74051772 showing John Masten as author. A version that looks the same is still on the historical society website with his name at the bottom. However, The WP article has been much edited and now mentions his name but not as the author. Can one assume that the above-mentioned edit adding the history was sufficient attribution? Was John the author who added his work here (thus making the current version OK without specific attribution)?  That editor's contribution page - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Markscheck - contains some edit summaries that suggest otherwise, e.g.
:" 2013-01-14T15:22:33 (diff | hist) . . (+6,385)‎ . . Wurtsboro, New York ‎ (Used the official history, took out the subjective information, adding a whole new page for Wurtsboro Hills.)"
If material can be tagged "Copyright (c)2001, Michael J. Roosa and James Arnott. Reprinted by permission of the authors", as is part of that Wurtboro article, is it suitable for Wikipedia?

Talk:Mamaroneck, New York

message: Yes, I'm not very familiar with southeastern Westchester.  Having been injured last year, I hadn't seen Mamaroneck in about three years, was on my way last month to Connecticut, took a small detour for a few photos here, and wanted one of them to illustrate the town article instead of all of them going to the village.  This one wasn't very good or very specific so I thought it would do.  Alas, in retrospect it seems my route missed all unincorporated parts of the township.  Presumably there are unincorporated areas upstream; maybe I'll photograph them on my way to or from White Plains before another year passes.  But it's a pretty far distance for me to pedal; maybe someone who lives in that area will buy or borrow a camera and snap a few pictures for Wikipedia.

Talk:Orangetown, New York

message: The "history" of this town is missing critical periods of the 20th Century, and particularly the postwar decades when suburbanization began in earnest. While most popular histories of the Rockland/Bergen area typically focus almost exclusively on the colonial and Revolutionary War era, the reality is this whole area was nothing but barren farmland until major arteries (bridges, highways) connecting this region to the city were built, which in turn resulted in a mass exodus of people out of NY City into the region. At the turn of the 20th Century, the place was still a frontier; at the end of last century, it was a highly developed suburb of NY City. Surely there are sources covering this rather dramatic transition. Jonathan f1 (talk) 02:58, 30 March 2024 (UTC)

thread_title: Untitled

message: I removed several of the events because they did not happen in Palmyra.  This article is about the town of Palmyra, not LDS history.  Most LDS writers lump everything in the area as "Palmyra" when certain events did not happen there, so the assumption is incorrect and ignores the actual boundaries in New York.  For one, the Hill Cumorah is located in Manchester, not Palmyra, so anything related to it, such as the Hill Cumorah Pageant and the Golden Plates should be in the Manchester article's history section, not here.  The Smith's moved across the border to Manchester in 1825, an event that is clearly stated in Joseph Smith's own writing.  You can call it picky, but it's still the reality.  Outside of the First Vision and Moroni's appearances in 1823, most of the events happened elsewhere.  I retained the publication of the Book of Mormon even though it was actually in the village of Palmyra, a distinct and separate entity from the town of Palmyra.  The mention of the organization of the church in Fayette is a stretch but I kept it to retain some kind of flow.  --JonRidinger (talk) 17:24, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

I'm being sarcastic, of course.

We don't need a clip of the modern four-man Cars with Ric Ocasek singing it (if they even perform that song anymore). We also don't need a New Cars clip with Todd Rundgren singing it, although he did a fine job with it.
The links should be labeled, which they aren't.
