Wondering how to edit this U.S. County Entry?
The WikiProject U.S. Counties standards might help.

As you see, I've made some changes to improve this article. As there seems to be a variety of formats for presenting information, or more specically the order in which info is presented, I've made some shifts from my POV as priorities. Is there a formula? opening, geography, demographics, transport, government, tranportation, history????? Does it matter? Would like to help with more contributions to expand this piece which is not rated, but considered to be of high importance. Djflem 15:31, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

Now that article has been rated to be of B-scale, help with images, references, fact checking, copyediting, and concise contributions would seem to be in order. All help is appreciated. Djflem 19:26, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Ethnic/economic diversity

Most people who live in Hudson experience the ethnic and economic diversity of the the city everyday, so it's quite easy to make statements about it. On the other hand there are people who fill the necessity of an encyclopedia to include substanciated facts. both are valid. i've included, by adding in the section Interesting facts that should satisfy both sides and hopefully will help with the Jersey City article as well.Djflem 18:56, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Politics

This section needs to go unless there is significant justification. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.80.116.183 (talk) 00:37, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mergers, Incorporations, Boundaries

Anyone willing to sort this out to give a proper image of what took place? Section will need to go otherwise...Djflem 00:41, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Most racially diverse

I'm changing the "Jersey City" thing that states this, as Jersey City is the most ethnically diverse (41 % of the population is Hispanic (which is not a race), much of it is middle eastern, and much of it is of Italian descent, and some Irish. Most Hispanics (if but barely)are White, Arabs are White, Italian and Irish people are defitnitely White. Thanks Iamanadam 16:14, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:HollandTunnelNYNJboarder.JPG

Image:HollandTunnelNYNJboarder.JPG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
