The article was mostly developed by me originally, trying to accomodate another editors wishes for the two topics of the City Point neighborhood and one of the two historic districts in the neighborhood being merged in one article. I found it awkward to write. Recently, the other editor has twice edited the article to remove some of the complication, stating "this reads better" in edit summaries. One of the main effects of the edit is to simplify from reality, indeed making it read better perhaps, but at cost of accuracy and completeness. I don't want to edit war about this. I think the proper resolution is to split the neighborhood article from the historic district article, as I originally would have preferred. I prefer it again now strongly to prevent the gamesmanship of editing in this article. --doncram (talk) 20:27, 26 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Historically City Point is Oyster Point and there is no fundamental reason for there to be two articles about the same place. It is quite clear that the article is about the place called City Point the oldest part of which is the historic district. There is no need to explicitly say that. Oyster Point is also no longer in use as a common name so editing to change "also and formerly known as" to just "formerly known as" is perfectly fine. I will add the Howard Avenue link as a see also. --Polaron | Talk20:36, 26 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
