Hello the only wiki project that I know of is

[edit] Todt Hill
Let me thank you for taking the time to explain your edits to the Todt Hill article on my talk page. However, I have some issues with the claim made.
First, I agree that the term coast is narrowly defined, but the article specifically stated and linked to the "U.S. East Coast" which is not so narrowly defined. I also believe changing it to the "eastern sea coast" is disingenuous because that still implies the East Coast of the United States.
Second, as you pointed out, Great Blue Hill is taller than Todt Hill but, as th eGreat Blue Hill article says, it is within 10 miles of the Atlantic (and only about 3 or 4 miles from Quincy Bay and Boston Harbor). Todt Hill seems to be about 2 miles from the Lower New York Bay, and then another 4 or 5 miles to the mouth of the bay and thus the Atlantic. Making it at least 6 or 7 miles (or 2 miles to the nearest bay) compared to Great Blue Hill's 10 miles (or 3 or 4 miles to the nearest bay). With such a small difference, I don't see how one could be considered "coastal" and the other "inland." (Also, neither seems to fall within the narrow definition of coast.)
Third, and this is probably the biggest issue, there are no reliable and multiple sources cited for that claim. The external link on this page says "Staten Islanders claim it is the highest summit on the Eastern Seaboard south of Maine." Notice, it only says "claim" and gives no evidence to back up that claim. (Besides, the article also states that the Fresh Kills Landfill will be higher by 2002.)
Therefore I am changing the page to read "Staten Islanders claim it is the highest summit on the Eastern Seaboard south of Maine" because that is the only statement that is verifiable. - Ektar 21:11, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Murray the K
Hey, thanks, Rev! Really nice of you to say so. I was sad to see a small page for Murray so I dove in and spent quite a few hours last night and this afternoon (just saved!) researching and expanding it. I think it's on the way now to being a comprehensive article, although could certainly use more work - hope you and others will jump in with corrections and additions. Would like to beef up the personal part - I know he had 6 wives and 3 kids but not much more. Which son did you know? My husband worked with Murray for a while on the NBC show and we've heard from Peter, the son who runs the Murray the K archive. Mostly, though, I remember Murray from the radio, spinning his magic for all those years. Thanks again for writing!Tvoz 19:38, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
