Redundant maps

Wikipedia does not include redundant state maps for municipalities let alone city neighborhoods; info included in inset which is sufficeint.Too large:photos should correspond with sub section.Djflem (talk) 09:03, 10 February 2015 (UTC)

New Jersey is an oddball for its use of county maps for unincorporated communities in the state; a quick glance around the nation shows that the vast majority use only state maps. New Jersey's wikipedia editors are very insular in their tendencies and references, and a greater uniformity should exist across the country. Famartin (talk) 09:05, 10 February 2015 (UTC)

So the consensus for unincorporated communities in NJ is to use the county map. And what about neighbourhoods in urban areas? Djflem (talk) 22:36, 10 February 2015 (UTC)

There should not be a "New Jersey" consensus on anything. There should be a national consensus, at minimum, since Wikipedia is a "global" organization. New Jersey is not special. In any case, the consensus would be to actually show a map of the city which depicts the district/neighborhood as a highlighted area. Note this only applies to cities, so would only apply to Communipaw (not Babbitt, which is a township). Famartin (talk) 23:00, 10 February 2015 (UTC)

Can you explain the neighbourhoods in these templates? And direct me to the discussion about the consensus to which you are referring?

Djflem (talk) 23:22, 10 February 2015 (UTC)

You misinterpret my meaning of "consensus". I have seen no discussion, but the most common map showing up in neighborhood maps is one showing the city with the neighborhood highlighted. Obviously, that requires work, and a lot of that work hasn't been done.Famartin (talk) 02:27, 11 February 2015 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Consensus as defined by Wikipedia. If you say the the "most common" is "showing the city with the neighborhood highlighted", why are you adding state maps?Djflem (talk) 07:25, 11 February 2015 (UTC)

Because: 1) These pages had *no* maps before I worked them, so either way I've improved the pages; 2) For consistency's sake, I've added both county and state maps to all the NJ unincorporated community pages I've gone through, since its obvious that some users prefer county, some prefer state, add both and everyone is happy (or, so I thought).

Garble

In several places, too much information was crammed into one overlong, rambling sentence, making it hard to read. Some places also had syntax so distorted as to be uninterpretable, probably because of cut-and-paste errors and/or editors losing track of a sentence's structure by the time they got halfway through it. The regions of discontinuities and other breaks are underlined here.

• § Communipaw-Lafayette:
  • Lafayette Park is likely named for the Marquis de Lafayette, who was stationed in Bergen in 1799, and later re-visited in 1824 A city square similar to Van Vorst Park and Hamilton Park the buildings surrounding it were constructed in different periods.
• § New Netherland:
  • Originally, the village of Communipaw was part of the colony under the jurisdiction to the Dutch West India Company. In 1653, became part of the Commonality of New Amsterdam, (which included all the settlements at Pavonia, Manhattan, Staten Island, and Long Island), a separate village in 1658, under the jurisdiction of the Bergen, established at contemporary Bergen Square.
  • Suydam Street, which can be translated as "south dam", runs for one block south of Communipaw Avenue is taken early Dutch family, whose descendent, Rev. J. Howard Suydam, D.D, was member and historian of the Holland Society of New York.
• § Railroads
  • This monument (which operated until 1967), along with the Statue of Liberty National Monument (consisting of Ellis Island and Liberty Island) recalls the period of massive emigration to the United States.
    — This is the only mention of a monument, so the reader has no clue to what monument is being talked about. And what's it doing under "Railroads", anyway? I've commented it out, with an HTML comment linking here.
