For instance, if an article about a neighborhood has [[Category:Dallas, Texas]] at the bottom, you should replace it with [[Category:Dallas, Texas neighborhoods]]. An attempt at creating a very well organized list for List of neighborhoods in Dallas, Texas is currently being worked on at List of neighborhoods in Dallas, Texas/sandbox. If you'd like to go there and work on it or improve the {{Neighborhood list}} (which currently is a hardly modified copy of {{Episode list}}), the help would be greatly appreciated! Check the education subproject for a list of school articles that need improving and a set of detailed instructions on how to improve them.

[edit] No mention of district HISTORY?

This is absurd ... how can we have an article on DISD that doesn't mention any of the district's historical controversies? No mention of the 1958 desegregation suit that was in effect for decades, no mention of Yvonne Gonzalez (!!) nor of the period in the early 1990s when the district almost lost its state accreditation because of the school board's constant feuding? OK, I'll work on it, but with so many Dallasites on Wikipedia, you'd think this article -- and the related high-school articles -- would get a little more attention.
