Talk:North Shore, California

message: It's my intent to get some photos of the place and upload them to the Commons.  As for the comment regarding the stairwell and receipts in the yacht club building, I can personally vouch for that as I entered the building some years ago prior to its being boarded up.  The place was in surprisingly good shape and relatively free of vandalism.  I believe an article in Westways magazine mentioned the receipts as well.  --PMDrive1061 (talk) 06:12, 22 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The information still counts as "original research" (not verifiable by research materials or news sources.)  I'm not taking it down, but just saying that seeing something then writing it on Wikipedia isn't enough anymore.

Talk:North Valley (San Jose)

message: North Valley is a neighborhood name I have heard from realtors and few others.  I haven't heard it generally accepted as the name of a specific neighborhood.  As the clock approaches one year that this page has been tagged unreferenced, I'll add a note here for other editors to leave some time for local editors to research this some more.  For example, if we find that it's generally co-existent with Berryessa, San Jose, California then we can make a redirect.  Ikluft (talk) 22:01, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Needs more research - name is real 

message: I can't find any reference for North Valley as a neighborhood of San Jose.  I removed the template and category claiming this is a neighborhood of San Jose.  As the article claims, it appears to be an informal name for the Berryessa district of San Jose and the city of Milpitas.  Unless someone comes up with something new soon, we should consider nominating this page for deletion. Ikluft (talk) 00:34, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I live in that area now.  I can't find a consistent online definition on any anyone's web site.  Some realtors do mention it and have parts of Milpitas and/or Berryessa in their definitions.  As I've looked around, it just confirmed my suspicion that it's no more than an informal name.  I've only ever heard North Valley from realtors and their listings/advertising.  I even looked at a map of neighborhood names on the wall of the San Jose Emergency Operations Center and found no North Valley there either.  Anyway, there's nowhere to fit between Berryessa and Milpitas because Berryessa is considered to be the part of SJ Council District 4 east of I-880.  (District 4 consists of Alviso, North San Jose and Berryessa.)  Even though a few locals know the term North Valley, the fact is that Wikipedia's culture and rules want a level of online verifiability (see WP:VERIFY) which the informal term North Valley doesn't live up to.  I've looked around - the definition isn't there.  The informal definition isn't "notable" or verifiable by Wikipedia expectations.  Time to give up.  The article has to go away.  If merging it into Berryessa gets challenged then the remaining alternative would be to just nominate the North Valley article for deletion. Ikluft (talk) 15:19, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Research says... 

message: I looked around the web.  The best reference I could find says North Valley is an informal nickname for the Berryessa district of San Jose.  I proposed to merge this page into that one. Ikluft (talk) 18:12, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Northgate High School (Walnut Creek, California)

message: Northgate is a very diverse and interesting school, and this page doesn't seem to represent the full breadth of its student programs and activities.

*Graduation Requirements
*Extracurriculars
*Academics
Any other ideas as to what to add, implementation, etc., would be appreciated.  Feel free to leave any comments on my talk page as well.

:-Mariet Ford, a key participant in The Play during the 1982 Cal/Stanford Big Game played football for the Broncos.  He was later convicted of murdering his wife and child and is currently serving a lengthy prison sentence.
It says nothing about Ford attending Northgate High School, which is why I think it was added.  If someone can find a reference, to when Ford attended, please feel free to add it back in to the article.  --EarthPerson 15:19, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Talk:San Francisco Bay University

message: I reverted the diploma mill comment. The article cited was about completely different institutions, and merely noted that this accredited university was mentioned -- not that it, itself, is a diploma mill. aaronrp (talk) 05:12, 24 January 2014 (UTC)

message: I'd like to point out that the page for this university had unnecessary details. For instance, the exact addresses of each and every one of the buildings on the campus is not required in a Wiki article. People are free to use Google/Apple maps to find these buildings. As a sharp contrast, Stanford University, one of the premier institutions in the world, is located a few miles from NPU. However, the locations of the buildings in the Stanford campus is not listed in the Stanford Wiki pages.
Secondly, qualifiers like "situated in a high-technology business area in Fremont, in the midst of numerous corporations...." is totally unbecoming of a Wikipedia article. What does "high-technology" even mean? Frankly, this article reads like it had been written by someone who was not an unbiased party.  
Finally, the only reference cited to support all the claims in the article is a link that does not function.

Talk:Certificate of medical necessity

message: I removed the  tag.  This is a USA subject, therefore, I don't understand why it should be globalized.  If I was to talk about Medicaid cards, I wouldn't be expected to globalize it, so why would this have to be globalized?  Unless other nations also have Certificate of medical necessity.  In which case, it would be something different, either with a different name or a different document with the same name.  If it has a different name, then it should have its own page with that name.  If it has the same name, then either we can add it to this page or create a Disambiguation page with "Certificate of medical necessity (USA)" and "Certificate of medical necessity (Other_Nation)".  Fanra 13:44, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I think you made the right choice.  The documentation for the Globalization template clearly states that "These tags should only be applied to articles where global perspectives are reasonably believed to exist" -- and how "global perspectives" could exist on an obscure piece of bureaucratic paperwork that's specific to a single country is beyond me.

Talk:Oak Park, California

message: , I am requesting that this move be reversed back to the way it was. There are several reasons. The move was not discussed on the talk page per Wikipedia guidelines. Any proposed title would have been brought up as the current title is not in conformance with City Standards. The existing Disambiguation page, Oak Park, is sufficient. Many existing links will  now end up at the new disambiguation page rather than the article on Oak Park, California. All that is needed is a top note explaining the difference between the two articles rather than a Disambiguation page. Thanks. Fettlemap (talk) 20:54, 1 March 2019 (UTC)

Talk:Oakland California Temple

message: The whole section about the Loma Prieta earthquake and then the Oakland Hills fire is ludicrous. Most every building in the SF Bay Area survived the earthquake undamaged, and the Oakland Hills fire was contained about five miles or so from the temple. This section may play well with folks from out of town, but looks incredibly weak to those of us who were here for both events. This section should be removed. Bring it back when the temple survives a 7+ EQ on the Hayward Fault that runs pretty much underneath it.
Also, the Golden Gate bridge is visible on just about every day - at least on the same days that SF is visible. --Fizbin (talk) 17:06, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Oaksterdam, Oakland

message: My first thought, bad idea, until I hear your rationale.  Oaksterdam is kind of a sub neighborhood within downtown Oakland proper.  I'm hesitant to label its boundaries but I'd say it's roughly bordered by 15th street on the Southwest, Webster Street on the Southeast, 19th Street on the Northeast, and Telegraph Ave on the Northwest.  It's characterized by mixed use office and residential buildings with unique historic architecture older than the skyscrapers south of 14th St, and an abundance of ground floor retail shop spaces and restaurants and cafes.  It has it's own history and cultural undercurrent also, which is distinctly different than the daytime office worker fabric south of 15th Street.  I also believe it's geographically, anthropologically, and economically distinct enough from the rest of Downtown Oakland to warrant it's own article.
