contention here too, location in Whitney Ave HD

Here, as in other articles I've edited, another editor is following to dispute everything he can, it seems. Including contending about a location, intersection of Lawrence & Whitney, which is in fact included in the Whitney Avenue Historic District if you look at the latter's map or NRHP document. I wrote that article, and am familiar with the facts. SarekOfVulcan, please stop taking the most confrontation action you can at every step. Raise a question at Talk. Try seriously to discuss things rather than combat. --do ncr am 22:21, 19 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

There's a "WILLIAM ALLEN HOUSE, 3 stories, Queen Anne, 1897, gable roof, brick, slate. Photo #22." located at 357 Whitney Avenue, according to the Whitney Avenue HD's NRHP nom document. Is that a building designed by William H. Allen, and/or where William H. Allen lived? I imagine that is likely. It is a contributing building in the HD. --do ncr am 22:24, 19 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed, Google maps shows that house is located at the corner of Lawrence. And the photo #22 shows a complicated house, pretty much like the Fyler-Hotchkiss House that is mentioned in the quote as being almost an exact duplicate. --do ncr am 22:28, 19 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

In this edit, SarekOfVulcan removed my specific mention of the Whitney Avenue Historic District, which i restored in the next edit, because it was more than fully justified in the article and the discussion here. And then Sarek opened noticeboard dispute at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring #User:Doncram reported by User:SarekOfVulcan (Result: ): . And still has not responded here. Way to go, Sarek. Your goal is to cause contention, right? --do ncr am 00:41, 20 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
