Los Angeles neighborhoods

• Category:Los Angeles neighborhoods
• List of districts and neighborhoods of Los Angeles

Many of these articles could use a lot of work, especially those concerning lesser-known neighborhoods.

Tagged for cleanup, NPOV, etc.

(as of 02:12, 24 October 2006 (UTC))

Cleanup

• Monterey Hills, Los Angeles, California (since 9/05)
• Sylmar, Los Angeles, California (since 10/05; I tagged it)
• Westdale, Los Angeles, California (since 3/06; I tagged it)

Does not cite sources

• Hollywood, Los Angeles, California

Many more articles need cleanup and NPOV help, though.

Demographic info

This includes Rambot-style demographic/census statistics, not generalized statements such as "an increasing Korean-American population"

Articles with no demographic info

• Arlington Heights, Los Angeles, California
• Artist District, Los Angeles, California
• Athens, Los Angeles, California
• Beachwood Canyon, Los Angeles, California
• Benedict Canyon, Los Angeles, California
• Beverly Hills Post Office - I imagine census data for that area alone would be hard to come by
• Beverlywood, Los Angeles, California
• Bunker Hill, Los Angeles, California
• Canoga Park, Los Angeles, California
• Chatsworth, Los Angeles, California
• Cheviot Hills, Los Angeles, California
• Chinatown, Los Angeles, California

• Carthay, Los Angeles, California - race, income, percent below pov. line
• Encino, Los Angeles, California - pop, housing units, density, land area

General goals

• Rambot-style demographic info for each article, when available, except for the smallest districts/neighborhoods
• Removal of original research and unverifiable claims (e.g. "the best Italian restaurant in such-and-such neighborhood", etc.)
• Watch out for "civic boosterism" and real-estate sales language

Template for demographic info

DISTRICT lies in census tracts TRACTS. As of the [[census]]{{GR|2}} of 2000, there were # people, # households, and # families residing in the district. The [[population density]] was #/km² (#/mi²). There were # housing units at an average density of #/km² (#/mi²). The [[Race (U.S. Census)|racial makeup]] of the district was WHITE% White, BLACK% African American, NA% Native American, ASIAN% Asian, PI% Pacific Islander, OTHER% from other races, and TWOMORE% from two or more races. HISP% of the population were Hispanic or Latino of any race, and NHWHITE% of whites were not of Hispanic origin. There were # households out of which UNDER18% had children under the age of 18 living with them, COUPLES% were [[Marriage|married couples]] living together, FHOUSE% had a female householder with no husband present, and NFAMILY% were non-families. IND% of all households were made up of individuals and 65ALONE% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older. The average household size was HOUSESIZE and the average family size was FAMSIZE. In the district the population was spread out with UNDER18% under the age of 18, 1824% from 18 to 24, 2544% from 25 to 44, 4464% from 45 to 64, and 65PLUS% who were 65 years of age or older.

The median income for a household in the district was $MEDINCOME, and the median income for a family was $MEDFAMILY. Males had a median income of $MALEINCOME versus $FEMALEINCOME for females. The [[per capita income]] for the city was $PERCAPINCOME. About FAMPOVLINE% of families and POPPOVLINE% of the population were below the [[poverty line]], including 18UNDERPOVLINE% of those under age 18 and 65OVERPOVLINE% of those age 65 or over.

RFA

My RFA criteria: I won't oppose an RFA unless I have a really good reason.

Some things I don't care about:

• How many featured articles a user has. I agree with the 1FA criterion on one point: someone who writes featured articles is generally a good admin candidate. However, that's no reason to deny adminship to anyone who hasn't gotten an article to FA status.
• Whether someone used the word "vote" once or twice. I've slipped into that term before to refer to AFD, RFA and similar processes, but I fully support and understand m:Polls are evil. However, there is a problem when a candidate has shown a severe misunderstanding of rough consensus (e.g. claiming a page on AFD should be deleted because the raw count was 13 delete, 12 keep), or has made comments such as "If I am elected administrator..."
• Edit count in particular namespaces, such as templates or categories. When most users speak of "a good balance of edits in different namespaces", they mean the candidate doesn't just do one thing, and has a good background in important aspects of Wikipedia editing and maintenance. For example, if a user has 5000 edits, that's generally a good thing. But if the edits are all to AFD pages, that's not so good. A user doesn't need an extensive history in all conceivable areas of Wikipedia to be a good admin. RFA comments like "not enough category edits" make as much sense as, say, "not enough MediaWiki talk edits".
