This article is quite poor. It cites no sources and the language used is not appropriate for an encyclopedia. Jordalus ( talk) 19:03, 5 June 2010 (UTC)

Hello Syrenka V -- I said a prayer to the patron saint of lost causes and jumped into this article. You are invited. I'm taking stock of the sad sack of External references first. Here is my thesis, for which I already have a couple of good sources: A city in decline sinks as a whole, a city with some economic growth experiences gentrification which is by its nature uneven. When certain neighborhoods improve, the lower income residents are displaced yada yada. I would like to make sure to manage the fork with List of Philadelphia neighborhoods. Residential areas aren't the only areas upheaved. Retail changed too. Rhadow ( talk) 23:04, 23 September 2017 (UTC)
Instead of dynamiting the existing piece, I am trying to retain the organization of the article by neighborhood. This requires attention to POV. The existing text carries with it an attitude of development is bad. This needs to be balanced with a recognition of the inevitability of change and the positive effects of neighborhood improvement. Rhadow ( talk) 14:02, 24 September 2017 (UTC)
The geographic details belong in the main articles about the neighborhoods. Only when they are related to gentrification do they go in this article. Analysts use distance from City Hall as an independent variable in gentrification calculations in Philly, so it is included.
Gentrification has first to do with real estate, then with class, race and ethnicity. The article is not a sociological study of the neighborhoods. Rhadow ( talk) 14:32, 27 September 2017 (UTC)
