[edit] Rancho Jurupa

Does anyone have any good sources for Rancho Jurupa? Ronbo76 02:50, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Edit war about crime stats

It appears the edit war is on about this issue. We need consensus. Crime is a fact and if documented properly should be present in the article (IMHO). Ronbo76 05:28, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

I think the current section is too long, and should not be titled 'Gangs and Crime' every major city has gangs, and it just makes it look like it is a huge problem with Riverside. College Watch 19:51, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

It could stand some editing down, and paraphrasing. Right now, a major portion of it consists of direct quotes from the two cited references, except that the numbers have been inflated, apparently arbitrarily. --Takwish 19:55, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] March 5. 2007 edit about vandalism (most recent)

This should be looked at because it comes from a user with a non-reliable track record for article input. Ronbo76 07:36, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Crime section edit

Today's edit deleted cited portions. It was replaced with a citation that does not work as of this post. If subtle citation cannot be found in reasonable time, recommend revert. Ronbo76 15:19, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

I reverted and cleaned up the section. The citation was actually existing, but still broken. I fixed it. The earlier section may have been deleted because it was copied verbatim from the references. I also reworded everything to avoid copyright infringement. Brien ClarkTalk 05:01, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
