[edit] Police Dept

I saw the police in action last weekend. As a previous poster (who's comments you removed) said, they ticket excessively - even for going 31 in a 30. The first verification of another published webpage is from an angle fire site which is removed by the autobot. The second is from a greeknews website. 1000 tickets a year for the short strip of road is rather high, especially comparing it to the neighboring town which issued 21. See the second reference for verification.Hicksvilledude 03:29, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

I'm not the one who deleted your comments earlier today but I'm about to remove them again anyway. There may be a justifiable reason and proper method for including such a fact but your writing is just unprofessional and slanderous. I mean, come on. "Overzealous" is opinion, "Be very careful" is a personal suggestion, and the all-caps "WILL" is a false promise. Sorry that you must have gotten a speeding ticket in Asharoken but this is an encyclopedia article, not a place for you to rant bias personal opinions. What you are doing is vandalism and your constant undoing of reverts is also against Wikipedia policy. I strongly suggest you read up on Wikipedia:Neutral point_ of view and Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not. The most this fact deserves is a brief, facts-only mention, so I'll be overly generous and rewrite this instead of outright removal. --Fife Club 06:01, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

Actually - other then re-entering the comments after the autobot removed it due to the link, this is the first time I have entered anything on this page, so your comments are unjustified - please be more carefull in your acusations. I was just pointing out that you are the editor that removed a similar post a while ago. I happened upon that when looking at the history. To address one of your other assumptions - I have never gotten a ticket in Asharoken, but I have now witnessed what I have heard and read about. I agree your rewrite is much better then what I had written. Thanks!Hicksvilledude 11:37, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Kefalidis & DiLorenzo

I removed the notable residents of Nikos Kefalidis (founder and President of KLM Construction, founded Beta Steel Corp., current owner of The Bevin House) and Alex DiLorenzo III (real estate mogul, restorer and former owner of The Bevin House (and infamous slumlord who was criminally charged in connection to the Happy Land fire[1])) because of several questionable facts. Both names are probably notable but, no source references can be found that either lived in Asharoken. It may be true but Wikipedia has a "no original research" policy so you'll need to find a source before putting them back in the article. Also, Kefalidis died in a plane crash in 1998 so he can't be the current owner of Bevin House. --Fife Club (talk) 04:53, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
