Working on the list of cities

[edit]

On the List of planned cities article, these cities are mentioned as those supported by the 1970 act. This is a longer list than what currently appears on this article and (I think) more accurate. I will be working on this but would appreciate any guidance from others. Novellasyes (talk) 12:37, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This article currently lists 12 cities as recipients of the 1970 federal funding. The list on the List of planned cities identifies 16 cities.

This Washington Post article from 1983 says there should be 16 towns.Novellasyes (talk) 19:18, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

So, it is clear that different RSes are saying different things. But, I've found this document from HUD in 1978 that clearly identifies 13 cities as recipients of the 1970 funding. So I'm going to go with a count of 13, and the specific list of 13 from that document, which is going to mean altering this article a bit. Novellasyes (talk) 16:41, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
