[edit] Rural

See rural:

  • "Rural areas (also referred to as "the country", countryside) are sparsely settled places away from the influence of large cities and towns. Such areas are distinct from more intensively settled urban and suburban areas ... "

This can not be said of Beaconsfield. There is no agricultural logging, mining, petroleum and natural gas exploration, and very little tourism in Beaconsfield. Itegero, in contrast, is a rural community where the populations lives mainly on farming. I would be happy to add a sentence regarding the resemblance of Beconsfield to the countryside due to large trees and large lots, but this would be original research until somebody finds a reference for this.   Andreas   (T) 03:02, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Suicide etc.

The suicide rate is hardly an important characterization of a town, especially that not much other information is given. Moreover, there are no sources given for this.

The term "rural" is inapropriate for Becaonsfield, see above.

The diversity of income in comparison to other municipalities has to be substantiated by sources. "Considered" is a buzz word that has to be avoided.   Andreas   (T) 20:14, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Notable Residents

Who are Nikolai Sittmann, Andrew Borrelli, and Patrick Janody? Why are they notable? Do they have their own Wikipedia article? Before the notability of these individuals has been established and documented, they should be removed.  Andreas  (T) 17:57, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
