Requesting a source to verify the paragraph about alleged apartment scandal. Weltall 08:16, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
I've given Slightlyslack more than enough time to cite his addition with something more specific than "the L.A. Times printed it". I am deleting the paragraph about the scandal until he gives more concrete evidence. Weltall 22:25, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
The lake in Mission Viejo is not Public. It is a private lake run by the Lake Mission Viejo Association. From it's opening circa 1979 until 2001 I was a dues paying member having owned 3 properties at different times from 1978. It is 127 acres bounded by Olympiad Road on the North, Marguerite Parkway on the West and Alicia Parkway on the South. There are three beaches used exclusively by owners of the respective housing projects and two beaches open to all lake members.
In 1984, the summer Olympic Games used Mission Viejo as the road course for the bicycle competition after which O'Neill parkway was renamed Olympiad road, having been the portion of the course where the start/finish line was located at the North end of the lake. Parts of this course have been used for an annual charity triathlon.

"The mall, The Shops at Mission Viejo, is located off Interstate 5 freeway and Crown Valley Parkway and serves the very upscale residents of south Orange County."
What is "very upscale" supposed to mean? I go to that mall all the time and I wouldn't consider my family upscale at all. I'm removing it 72.194.98.193 17:14, 17 March 2007 (UTC) I think the reason is because it has some stores that serve more upscale clients: Nordstrom, Saks Fifth Avenue, etc. It also has a lot of not-so-upscale stores: i.e. FYE, Forever 21, etc. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.200.106.49 ( talk) 19:48, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
RE: Notable Natives and Residence - Stan Zelinger, Carole Zelinger, Freddy Kruger and Kina Grannis.
It appears that Kina Grannis is the only person warranting a place in this Notables section.
Freddy Kruger is a pretty apt joke, but still a joke in one of the safest cities in the U.S.
The Zelingers might be more than non-fictional but less than worthy of mention in this section.
The heading "Notable Natives and Residence" needs to be corrected to "Notable Natives and Residents."

Would someone please take a look at the most recent edit by 192.225.179.162?. It's not quite blatant vandalism, so I can't undo it without violating 3RR. I was hoping some other person would see this on their watchlist. The wikilink to "Bate" is a disambiguation page, and this entry appears entirely non-notable. On the other hand, if you think it is a valid entry, please discuss here for my own education. Thanks! 78.26 ( I'm no IP, talk to me!) 14:19, 3 July 2013 (UTC)
Hello, I have reverted your edit to Mission Viejo. While that is a fine photo that adds a lot to the story, it is of a few homes, on the lake and a snow capped saddleback in the background. That is not really what Mission Viejo looks like, and the aerial photo provides a visual of MISSION VIEJO, the city. Simply removing a valuable aerial photo from the story in fact undermines its ability to be a reference page. Remember Wikipedia is not a brochure and encyclopedic value overrides visual appeal but when it is an issue, we use everything and let the end reader decided what is of value to his/her project.

I have reverted a edit by a user that feels a photo of a fairy tail land of snowcapped peaks, is Mission Viejo. Simply removing the aerial photo serves no function whatsoever. I was really clear in my posts and more then cordial, and frankly speaking the reply this user left is just mumbojumbo. I have reverted a second time and should this user decide to again revert that edit without offering something that explains how a picture of a mountain 50 miles away covered with snow is so valuable that a aerial shot, is simply trash and needs to be removed I will bring it to the admin dispute board, Rather odd really but that seems to be this users perspective, he seems to be creating a post card about a fantasy land. Aerial photos here are costly to obtain. This should not be the only city in Orange county NOT to have one on its Wiki page. WPPilot 04:07, 16 January 2014 (UTC) ( talk)
Now, for the reasons I stated, I don't think your photo worked well in the infobox, but I've put it in the article a little farther down, where there is room for it to "breathe" and be displayed at a size that does it justice. Would you please take a look at it and see what you think? It's not the only place it can go, there are other places where there sufficient space for it, this was just the one that was highest up in article.

The description at File:Snow at Lake Mission Viejo 005.jpg refers to it as mountain unusually covered in snow, so that might go against the photo being a "visual representation of the topic" per WP:LEADIMAGE. In your discussion, just stick to the advice on selecting a lead image listed at WP:LEADIMAGE and how each of the images meets or does not meet that advise. -- Jreferee (talk) 07:13, 16 January 2014 (UTC)
