- Oh, please what? Asking for a source is not only sensible but wiki policy. Is there something you don't understand about the policy? - Ektar 18:54, 10 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Your Edit to Todt Hill article
I noticed you took some information out of the article on Todt Hill, Staten Island - about it being the highest point on the East coast south of Maine - that probably should have said on the sea coast south of Maine (see [1]
Sea coast has a pretty narrow definition and Todt Hill is right adjacent to Lower New York Bay. In looking this up I noticed that the Great Blue Hill in Milton, MA, south of Boston, makes the same claim to be the highest point on the sea coast south of Maine, but it's got to be over 20 miles from the ocean, so that seems "inland" rather than "coastal."
I also added a paragraph about the filming of the Godfather on Todt Hill; I provided a reference, alhtough I know this from living at the top of Todt Hill in the St. Francis School at the time the first Godfather movie was made. Revmoran 19:04, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Manny Acta
Regarding your movement of information into a trivia section, please refer to WP:TRIV. I have reverted your edit accordingly. Sorry for the inconvenience. -- KirinX 15:32, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Further
To be honest, I was unsure of what would be the most appropriate course of action -- I wanted to call your attention to the WP:TRIV info, but at the same time, I wanted to elaborate on the information in the article and source things out if I could, I just had no time to do the improvements there. I should have just left you a note to begin with.
It is I who should apologize for "ruffling feathers". -- KirinX 23:39, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
