Talk:McGuire Air Force Base/Archive 1

message: Reason for deleting aerial map:
Maybe it's just my opinion, but I live in a community surrounding McGuire.  As a long time resident of Columbus, I don't feel comfortable with an aerial map of a military base being easily accessible on the web.  Just my opinion, but if I thought this how many other people are thinking this.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.99.134.63 (talk) 02:42, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: All one has to do is click on the coordinates of McGuire on the web page and you can access Google Earth .  which gives a Far more Deltailed Color image of the base.   The image which I added is over a decade old and of very low resolution that shows no operational details of the facility.   It simply illustrates it.   Bwmoll3 (talk) 04:08, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

Talk:McNary Field

message: From the article -
"Although the last scheduled airline flight left in 1993, Salem has actively campaigned to bring the airlines back to McNary Field. A current proposal by Horizon Air would begin scheduled service to Seattle-Tacoma International Airport in the fall of 2005. Also, media and unofficial sources have floated plans to make McNary Field into a reliever airport to Portland International Airport."
This is very OLD information, I would appreciate it if someone could find out whether this has changed.

Until the DOT either pays for the subsidy or realizes that no one else will fly it MCN will have service.

Talk:Mobile International Airport

message: Although this facilty seems to be called by many names, the Mobile Airport Authority operates the site as the "Brookley Complex", see Mobile Airport Authority for details.  What are the thoughts on moving it to that?  My initial wish was to create a Brookley Complex article, thinking that the Mobile Downtown Airport was just one facet of Brookley, but as I've done more research have realized that this is not so.  I have plans for a major expansion to include the various aerospace and industrial companies, expand the history, touch on its status as a free-trade zone, and to include more on the site as a whole.  I've left a few messages on contributor's talkpages for comment.  -Altairisfar (talk) 06:27, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The FAA, in both the airport master record and airport diagram, still refers to this as Mobile Downtown Airport. The official website (brookleycomplex.com) is down for maintenance right now, but the title bar of that page includes both names: Brookley Complex, Downtown Airport Mobile-Alabama. So the article and infobox should retain both names for now. Also, recent articles in news sources refer to this as the Brookley Field Industrial Complex, so that name should probably be mentioned somewhere. -- Zyxw (talk) 13:46, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I see, and agree that the article and infobox should retain both names.  I do think that the article would be better suited to be moved to Brookley Complex, but have created a redirect from that title for now.  Altairisfartalk 21:01, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Ida B. Wells-Barnett High School

message: I know that many people casually call the school "Wilson High School," dropping the "Woodrow."  But there is no dispute that the school's actual name is "Woodrow Wilson High School."  Shouldn't the article reflect this?  The article doesn't even reference the eponymous president once!  One argument for keeping the Woodrow off is that most of Portland's public high schools seem to have wiki articles that truncate their names to show only the last name of the president after which they were named.  To me, this just means that they all ought to be changed, and they ought to reference the person after whom they are named.  BlackberryLaw 01:17, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: I've reviewed the above links for possible use in the article. The two from the Tribune are off topic, being about policies of the school district, not the school, and even if they weren't, the stuff they are talking about would not be encyclopedic content as it is of no importance to anyone outside the school's community. The USNWR link could be used to update the school's USNWR rank (to unranked), but it's not a reliable source for anything else. And I have no clue what you think should be done with the last link, but the principal being out of the office is certainly not an encyclopedic topic. I suspect students may want to use this to discuss rumors, but that will not be happening.

thread_title:  Name of the Airport 

message: Keep in mind this airport is in an unincorporated area. An unincorporated area by definition means one which is not in any local municipality. A U.S. Census Bureau map of New Castle County shows on pages 12 and 16, or 13 and 17 of 45 of the PDF document, that the airport is not in any incorporated area (in other words, not in a municipality). If you look at the colors, each color is either a municipality (labeled in regular text) or a census-designated place (labeled in italic text, a CDP is usually unincorporated but it is drawn by the Census Bureau to pull specific census data). The area in white is unincorporated and not in a CDP. The airport is entirely in an area colored white.
By the way, using the city name alone of a postal address is misleading in trying to deterimine the location of a place. I quote from the City of Houston's Kingwood, Texas annexation guide of 1996: "No. The U.S. Postal Service establishes ZIP codes and mailing addresses in order to maximize the efficiency of their system, not to recognize jurisdictional boundaries."
