Points of interest

edit

This list seems inappropriate for this article and mostly redundant since half of the items on it are already mentioned elsewhere in the article. I think it should be removed, provided that some more information on the parks and museums is added to the Culture section. Kodak03 (talk) 22:03, 2 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Where is the lowest elevation from infobox showing 10 ft below nominal Lake Onatrio surface?

edit

The infobox says the lowest elevation is 230 ft (70 meters) when Lake Ontario is about 10 feet (3m) higher than that at 240 ft (73 meters). Where is this below lake level point? B137 (talk) 07:16, 30 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

Neighborhoods

edit

The section on neighborhoods needs improvement. The neighborhoods that are described in detail were chosen arbitrarily and the whole section lacks reliable sources. Several of the defined neighborhoods overlap with each other as well. Might be best to rewrite the detailed sections from scratch or remove them. Rocfan275 (talk) 16:24, 27 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

City Court

edit

@Magnolia677 and @Bjengles3, I see there is a dispute over the city court. I am personally in favor of including some information about the city court on this page, since there are three branches of the city government and I see no reason to exclude one entirely. However, the section as originally written gives undue weight to the court and includes information which is not appropriate for this article. Per the US Cities Guideline, a full list of incumbent judges is inadvisable. The information about courts in the state of New York should also be trimmed and included on Judiciary of New York (state) instead. Rocfan275 (talk) 13:30, 10 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Rocfan275: Thank you for clarifying this. I agree now that readers would benefit from some information of due weight. Magnolia677 (talk) 14:18, 10 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
