[edit] "Neighborhood"

NoMa is not a recognized neighborhood of the District of Columbia. One would be hard-pressed to find anyone other than the Business Improvement District members/personnel that identifies it as such. Let's start with that in mind and rebuild this article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.92.165.134 (talk) 03:11, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

I disagree with the approach that you've taken. The old version was more encyclopedic and fact based; also, blogs are typically not acceptable as references. Doctor Whom (talk) 00:05, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

I will construct a more encyclopedic that is historically and factually more accurate. In the interim I will also work to have the "neighborhood" removed from the map as well as the overall District of Columbia listing. Fact of the matter is nobody but developers and the media have described NoMA as a neighborhood. To date it has one residential building that is 5% occupied. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 140.32.122.60 (talk) 20:10, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
