[edit] Pennsylvania template

I'm uncertain whether it's appropriate to include the {{Pennsylvania}} template for a borough not listed as one of the major cities. I went ahead and added it... feel free to remove if it's improper. Mayosolo 03:21, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Not President Monroe

Monroeville was named for Joel Monroe, a famrer who sold off many plots of his land in this area. See [1]. -- Mikeblas 23:43, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] City template and information added

I added the city template, despite Monroeville not being a city. I thought it made searching for the information easier to find.

I also added the elevation, mayor, time zone, incorporation date, as well as images of the borough's seal and flag.

[edit] PGH assessment

Gave assessment. Pittsburgh neighborhoods are generally "mid" in importance. PadreNuestro 04:01, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Establishment date

The reference for the establishment date of Monroeville can be found here. [2] Dincher 20:06, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

Problem is, the article still makes no reference of it and doesn't, itself, cite that reference. As such, it's premature to add the article to the category. It would be great if you could add information about the establishment to the article, reference it, and then add the category. -- Mikeblas 01:27, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
Done, done and done. Dincher 03:26, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
Hooray! Thanks! -- Mikeblas 01:32, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
