[edit] Regarding Seattle, Washington

Please, Tacoma is a central city with its own suburbs (although its in the Seattle-Tacoma Metro Area), Bellevue is not. Despite its booming downtown and population, Bellevuse is still considered a suburb. By the way, there are suburb areas (both incorporated and unincorporated) that have respective populations that are more than Bellevue.

See:

Thank You.

[edit] Regarding List of U.S. cities in multiple counties

If you can see clearly at the city on [1], unless another source is provided, Watkins is only in one county (Adams) and should not be included in the list. --Moreau36 00:11, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

Will you add the source to the site please for consistencey purposes? --Moreau36 00:14, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
I just inserted the sourced link next to the city's name until an article is created for consistencey. Please DO NOT remove it. ---Moreau36 00:19, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
Please do not add nonsense to Wikipedia. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. --Moreau36 00:23, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Mill Creek disambiguation page

On the above referenced page you have repeatedly been placing a piped wikilink to an entry.

Wikipedia:Manual of Style (disambiguation pages) provides guidance on this matter.

Specifically, the MOS says the following:

"Piping Piping means concealing the actual title of a linked article by replacing it with other text, typically to suppress parenthetical expressions.

Do not pipe the name of the links to the articles being listed (for example, Moment (physics)). In many cases, this may be all the user needs to distinguish the article.

Exceptions:

Use piping if you're linking to an anchor point on the target page. Use piping if the article title differs from what it should be due to technical limitations per Template:wrongtitle; for instance USS Adder (SS-3) or LATEX. Use piping to italicize or quote the title portion of an article whose name consists of both a title and a clarifier; for instance Harvey (film) or "School" (song). If a word in the description is linked (an unusual occurrence), you may use piping in that link.

This guidance to avoid piping means that, unlike in article pages, a link to a redirect term will sometimes be preferred to a direct link, if the redirect term contains the disambiguation title and the redirect target does not. For example, in Delta (disambiguation), a link to the redirect term Delta Quadrant would be preferred over its target, Galactic quadrants (Star Trek)."

The piped link is contrary to the MOS. When the piped linked is removed, you reinsert it.

If you feel that an exception should be made to the MOS, please explain. Otherwise your acts are considered vandalism. Gjs238 20:54, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Spanish-speaking countries

The category you keep adding does not exist. Category:Spanish-speaking countries is appropiate for Puerto Rico. Please read country. Joelito (talk) 16:41, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] My IP is being used by other

I'm not responsible for those acts of vandalism to Wikipedia, in fact, I was even unawared that someone else is using my IP address or a similar one.

I already have a username and account in Wikipedia.

On the most polite and gentle manner possible, please I request you not placing blame and charges on me.

[edit] Amtrak train station information in major cities

RE: Listing of busiest stations in the Amtrak system

In my not-so-humble opinion, specific train station information should be listed for major cities in the Amtrak system. Many cities may only have one Amtrak station, but they also have multiple hub train stations that are used for regional/local transit services. If the specific station name is not used in the listing, people actually USING Wikipedia information for travel preparation purposes could get confused, if they aren't familiar with the city in question and use regional/local transit in their visit to the city.

Examples:

New York - Penn Station (Amtrak/LIRR/subways), Grand Central Terminal (Metro-North/subways), Jamaica (LIRR/subways), etc.

Philadelphia - 30th Street Station (Amtrak/SEPTA regional rail/SEPTA local rail), Suburban Station/Penn Central (SEPTA regional rail/SEPTA local rail), Market East (SEPTA regional rail/SEPTA Market-Frankford El), etc.

Chicago - Union Station, Ogilvie Transportation Center, Randolph Street Station, LaSalle Street Station (all serve Metra but are terminal stations for different lines)

Newark - Penn Station (Amtrak/NJ Transit commuter rail/PATH/Newark light rail), Broad Street Station (NJ Transit commuter rail, Newark light rail connector)

Baltimore - Penn Station (Amtrak/MARC Penn Line/MTA light rail spur), Camden Station (MARC Camden Line/MTA light rail mainline)

I hope this illustrates why specifically listing stations for some cities is probably a good idea, even if they only have one Amtrak station. Amtrak's own system timetable lists the specific station for many of their stations in the aforementioned cities for the reasons I described above.

Incidentally, Philadelphia has two Amtrak stations within its city limits, 30th Street Station (by far the busier station) and North Philadelphia. -- CHIP72 19:57, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
