Traffic Concerns Section

[edit]

emoved section on traffic concerns, as it was pro-ICC.

Yes, but the chunk you removed contained some old material as well. If anyone wants to remove some stuff, I would suggest the recent additions including the names of all the parks and individual subdivisions in Olney. Sfahey 21:29, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
pre-ICC I'm sure you meant.... 77th Trombone (talk) 18:13, 27 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Links in this Article

[edit]
  • 1st, there's the issue since 2008 about insufficient links.
  • 2nd, for most or all existing links, theres the issue of standard Link Rot.
  • 3rd, The 2 links to the Census data are trouble. These links can't be corrected until USCB gets it bookmarking issue resolved.
  1. one (tagged as dead) predates the current (9/16) scheme. This presently arrives at census data for Fort Washington CDP, Maryland.
  2. the other is per the Bureau's current "bookmarkable" URL scheme. The Census Bureau pages provide links that are purportedly bookmarkable, but as of 9/2016 they are only good for 30 min after someone (anyone, anywhere) calls up a search for the same results as the link desires. After that, the links arrive at an error page, requesting the visitor to retry their search.
Now, both links are meant to point to the same destination. When USCB gets its URLs resolved, then I suggest making the 1st a named ref, and then reusing it in place of the 2nd.

Cleaning any of this up will be good therapy for insomniacs. 77th Trombone (talk) 18:13, 27 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Questioning the removal of photo of offensive children playing soccer Suggestion

[edit]

user:Bgwhite - Did you mean to remove the photo of the young atheletes, which was present before you moved my over-lengthy caption into the text? You seem to have tossed the baby out with its captionwater.
