-Hi, have you followed up on the removal of the false gang and crime information for the college point article? i wrote a pretty lengthy request for editors to remove it, i would remove it myself but want it done by editors so it is not though i am compromising the integrity of the article.

Sorry, Blah0401 - but I'm just a plain ol' registered user, just like you. I don't watch wikipedia with great regularity, but I do try to contribute where I can. It looks like someone has reverted the vandalism on the College Point, Queens page. To make this process easier, I would highly recommend Wikipedia:Tools/Navigation popups.

Dear DialOne, Such a sneaky thing you did adding the "boundaries" of Sunnyside to include "Astoria" and "Maspeth"! After our discussion, I realize you don't agree, but adding an unofficial map from the phone book is a bit less than honest, don't you think? Actually, the addresses of "Sunnyside" apartment buildings near Maspeth all read "Woodside, NY." And since Astoria officially begins at Broadway (pretty far from Sunnyside Gardens, I'd say), addresses on the other side of the Gardens actually read "Long Island City, NY." But you're determined to be right, so "right" you are—and also inaccurate.

Dear anonymous user - I never claimed to be "right" or accurate. Matter of fact, if you actually READ what I wrote on the Talk:Sunnyside, Queens page, I claimed that without citing reliable sources that contain verifiable facts - the whole discussion of the borders of Sunnyside is pointless. And truthfully, I don't claim to be a reliable source either - I've only lived in Sunnyside a few years. However, I didn't link from the "phone book", but instead to map hosted on http://www.queensbp.org/, a website run by the Borough president of Queens. PLEASE provide ANY verifiable, reliable source that states in fact the exact boundaries and I'll be more than happy to admit you're right. Actually, I'd encourage you to update the Sunnyside, Queens page and cite your source when you do find it. Dialt0ne 08:58, 6 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
