enlargement of residential development section, improper linkage

I think the residential development section should be renamed history and the following be added: The recorded history of Cloverdale began in the same manner as Strathcona, Alberta, that is as part of the community of furtrade employees and hangers-on that surrounded Fort Edmonton even before the 1870s. This community included mixed families of Metis, British furtrade employees and Cree belonging to the Papaschase Band. Cloverdale took its name due to its location on the road between Edmotnon and Clover Bar, a settlement that grew up to the northeast. They were mostly replaced by eastern Canadian and British entreprenueurs, speculators and farmers after the Calgary and Edmonton Railway arrived nearby in 1891 in what would become Strathcona, Alberta. The opening of the Low Level Bridge in 1900 in Cloverdale led to the growth of industries in the west part of the neighbourhood. By the 1930s most of the industries had closed, and Cloverdale became a residential ara mostly inhabited by blue-collar workers and their families, as the area was not particulary attrractive due to the nearby placement of the city dump and incinerator. ref^[1]

As well, the search "Clover Bar, Edmonton" should not take a reader to Cloverdale as they were two separate communites separated by many kilometres. Tom Monto, Alberta historian (talk) 17:45, 16 January 2012 (UTC)Tom Monto, Alberta Historian[reply]

It appears the reference you've provided is from a book you wrote. I suggest you review WP:COI, and particularly WP:SELFCITING within, before proceeding with any further Wikipedia contributions based on your published research. Hwy43 (talk) 22:06, 16 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Also, you are correct about the redirect. I've changed it such that Clover Bar, Edmonton now redirects to Edmonton. Hwy43 (talk) 22:12, 16 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
