Talk:Chatsworth, Los Angeles

message: I'm surprised there is nothing about Charles Manson and his "Family".  They lived off Santa Susana Pass Road, about 1/3 of a mile west of Topanga Canyon Blvd. in the late 1960's (at the old Spahn Ranch). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.234.37.137 (talk • contribs) 16:57, 20 July 2007

thread_title:  Charles Manson and Manson Family 

message: There is no reference on this page to the nuclear meltdown in Simi Hills that exposed Chatsworth residents to large amounts of radiation over the span of two weeks, and which will not be cleaned up completely until 2017.  This was America's first and greatest nuclear meltdown (see above citation) and thus an important event in American history.  The poorly known incident was actually a far greater disaster than the more widely publicized Three Mile Island meltdown.  It is true that the Simi Hills page does briefly reference this event, but I believe the meltdown's effects on Chatsworth deserve space on the town's own page. 
There is also no reference to the mysterious Fountain of the World cult founded by Krishna Venta (real name Francis Heindswatzer Pencovick), which was a "precursor" to the cult The Family, led by the infamous Charles Manson (who is also not mentioned in this article).  Because of the Fountain of The World's possible connection to Charles Manson's cult, and because of how both cults greatly affected Chatsworth, they very clearly deserve reference on this page.

When? At the origin? The origin of what?
This doesn't make any sense at all.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Eatmyskirt (talk • contribs) 14:39, 1 March 2015 (UTC)

thread_title:  WTF does "originally" mean? 

message: The article says 35,073 residents in the 15.24-square-mile. Why do you use this archaic, out-of-date surface measure? Civilized peolpe use square kilometers.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.219.19.130 (talk) 10:36, 29 February 2016 (UTC)

message: The source is clear that Chatsworth was named after the english estate Chatsworth House.    The source does not dispute that it WAS named after Chatsworth House -- What they speculate on is WHY the community was named after Chatsworth House.  (Perhaps the landscape of the San Fernando Valley reminded Barber of his home ....  )
There are other sources that confirm the connection between Chatsworth, Ca and Chatsworth, England. (http://www.laalmanac.com/geography/ge13.php)  Additionally...."Reflecting its English heritage, the Chatsworth Chamber of Commerce uses the Duke of Devonshire's coat-of-arms as its insignia with the permission of the 10th Duke."
