Welcome!

Hello, Norcounty, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your edits to the page Temecula, California have not conformed to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and may be removed if they have not yet been. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media. Always remember to provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles. As well, all new biographies of living people must contain at least one reliable source.

If you are stuck and looking for help, please see the guide for citing sources or come to the new contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

Also, you might look at the US cities guideline. The Temecula article does not have much info on the economy other than the touristy aspects. You might note that Beverly Hills, California is not described as an "affluent" community in the lead paragraph. It does mention the real estate values, and that info has a reference to support it. Thanks. – S. Rich (talk) 19:02, 23 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I will provide links to the census data in a bit and re-add. Beverly Hills is one example that does not provide such information although there are countless cities locally and nationally that do. The inverted argument is flawed. Anyhow, please note that aside from the tourist destinations, which one may use to also infer wealth, there is quite a bit of information under the demographics section which supports affluence, e.g. census information. These support the addition of the descriptor; even more so when one reviews the pages on wealth and affluence in the United States. Norcounty (talk) 21:17, 23 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I quite agree that WP:Other stuff exists. But we've got to stick to facts & figures. Another example is Shinnecock Hills, New York. We don't describe this hamlet in The Hamptons as affluent. The article simply gives the numbers. And we must present the info in a non-promotional fashion. We can't use material to imply or infer conclusions because of rules about WP:Original research. Now if you find material that describes Temecula as a "resort town", that will work. It is a great place, but when it comes to editing Wikipedia we've got to follow certain rules. I wish you success on your editing efforts in this article! – S. Rich (talk) 22:09, 23 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the suggestions; I will take them into consideration. Though I might point out that you are using extreme examples of wealth where nearly all regionally, nationally, or globally, naturally depending on each respective example, know of their economic prowess. I can, too, though provide for countless examples of cities across the Southern California region and beyond that use descriptors to portray a variety of locales under a variety of socioeconomic adjectives, e.g. wealthy, affluent, middle class, working class, impoverished, et al. These need to be taken into consideration as you seem to be not open to the usage of such descriptors despite their commonplace standing within the site and after reading over the article you just listed I am not finding any evidence to support your viewpoint even though it quite likely is just as acceptable as mine. As for the initial regulatory and procedural articles initially posted, well, they aren't quite new as this may be my first edit but it is certainly not my first encounter with the site. I do appreciate your input, though.
