[edit] 8 mile rd Detroit
Hello, I have redirected your page to 8 Mile Road, as the article already exists. Don't forget to research your topic and try spelling variations before you contribute, as you may find that someone else has already started an article on the same subject. This avoids the replication of effort and splitting contributions across multiple pages, which is poor information architecture and makes research very difficult. Regards, (aeropagitica) (talk) 20:32, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 7 mile rd Detroit
I would say that starting an article by a statement that "Seven Mile Road is one of the most dangerous parts of Detroit" is a rather unfortunate thing to do. Rather, you should start with facts - it is a road in Detroit, where exactly it is located etc. - and if you want to talk about prevalence of crime in the area, you should provide some verifiable references. You may want to check Neutral point of view, Citing sources, Manual of Style, and other Wikipedia's Policies and guidelines. Regards, Mike Rosoft 22:19, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
- Please do not remove Articles for deletion notices from the article. The notices and comments are needed to establish community consensus about the status of an article, and removing them is considered vandalism. If you oppose the deletion of an article, you may comment at the respective page instead. Thank you. - Mike Rosoft 22:26, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Blocked
--Kungfu Adam (talk) 23:25, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
can you please unblock me I do not agree with being blocked but if you do not like what I put then I will delete or change it. I have worked years on this and researched it since I was in High School. I have also lived on 6 mile, 7 mile, 8 mile, and Harper Ave. i think I should not start the article out with this is one of the most dangerous parts of Detroit and I will change it. Thank you and Best wishes to you and everyone you know! BYE and thank you I know you will do the right Thing.
- ok, unblocked, be more careful next time and don't add nonsense/non-notable pages to wikipedia. I recommend you first read through the material on your welcome--Kungfu Adam (talk) 23:50, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Michigan Ave-Corridor
I've nominated this article for deletion because it is a duplicate of Michigan Ave. Please don't create multiple articles with the same content.--Isotope23 13:08, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
