I reverted your change to Menlo Park, California because Thomas Edison never lived there. He lived in Menlo Park, New Jersey. --Stephen e nelson 00:43, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

Please do not make uncited changes to articles. If you wish to add a controversial fact to an article, as you did to Winnetka,_Illinois, it must be cited or it will deleted. Thank you, and happy editing. Bullzeye 03:10, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Revert

I reverted your last (well-written) edit to The Sims 2 because it is information that belongs in a game guide, not an encyclopedia. ALTON .ıl 03:52, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mar del Plata's name

Hi there. I've lived in Mar del Plata all my life, and never was, among local "historians", a total consensus about the origin of the name. Some were trying hard to discover a Mapuche toponimic translated to Spanish, some fell to the temptation of relating this to the grey-coloured waters. The more plain explanation is, however, that the meaning is "Mar del Río de la Plata" o "Mar de la región del Plata" -something like "Sea of the River Plate" or ""Sea of the River Plate region" in English-. We should remember that the first important settlement (1874) on the shores between the River Plate and Bahia Blanca was indeed Mar del Plata. I think the latter is the more suitable explanation. "Plata" doesn't mean "silver" in this context, but "plate" (for the River Plate) instead. Regards.--Darius (talk) 21:59, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
P/S: another strong evidence is the masculine gender of the article in the contraction "del" ("of the" in English). "Plata" (the metal) is a female noun in Spanish; "El Plata" (river) is masculine.--Darius (talk) 02:37, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
