Hi, you left a note on my Talk page accusing me of making an erroneous edit to the Austin, Texas page. You've got the wrong person. I've made one and only one edit to that page. My edit simply reverted vandalism, removing sentences stating "Texas as a whole is a terrible state to live in, don't move here." and "Jordan was here."

Regarding the vandalism warning you received at User talk:68.158.6.93... Your IP address is evidently shared by muliple individuals. The message was aimed at someone else editing from that IP address. -NatureBoyMD (talk) 01:29, 3 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

I noticed you recently changed the information and source regarding Georgia's GPD as compared to the countries of the world. Economics-related material is certainly not my strong point, but the old information was apparently based on Georgia's GDP as it compares to theWorld Bank's information on List of countries by GDP (nominal). I hoped you could help me understand the contradiction between that and the new information you added. Thanks! Aylad ['ɑɪlæd] 20:40, 11 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

Please join me in discussion about the mention of the Alamo Drafthouse in the Culture:Theaters subsection of the Austin, Texas article. I've created a section in the Austin, Texas talk page for this discussion. Thank you. --Danorton (talk) 03:18, 13 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

Per Edge city, "Garreau established five rules for a place to be considered an edge city: - It must have more than five million square feet (465,000 m²) of office space. This is enough to house between 20,000 and 50,000 office workers, as many as some traditional downtowns. - It must have more than 600,000 square feet (56,000 m²) of retail space, the size of a medium shopping mall. This ensures that the edge city is a center of recreation and commerce as well as office work. - It must be characterized by more jobs than bedrooms. - It must be perceived by the population as one place. - It must have been nothing like a city 30 years earlier."

These things may or may not be true for Memorial City, but a source stating as much is what I am looking for.

If Memorial City meets some other definition of edge city – as provided by a notable source – then by all means please add links to that source and the evidence showing the connection.

In general, I am trying to keep List of edge cities held to standards – not necessarily just Garreau's, but standards nonetheless. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bankbryan (talkcontribs) 10:35, 18 May 2008

This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
