The crime rate in Woodbrooke Gardens has decreased over the last decade."
The link to http://www.woodbrookeestates.com is valid. Even though the website is under construction, it still contains relevant information, and I have re-inserted it into the article. Please don't remove this link again. Thank you! 172.131.123.36 15:58, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
And you would do well to remain civil, lest you be blocked for uncivility. And you still haven't addressed the fact that the subject of the website is not Rossville. Veinor (talk to me) 16:16, 14 March 2007 (UTC)Stunning architectural designs immediately set these extraordinary town homes apart, and create an unmistakable feeling of warmth, good taste and individuality.
By his unwarranted removal of NON-SPAM links, Philip Gronowski is vandalizing this article. Hey Phil, I'd like to ask that you refrain from future vandalism of this page. Failure to do so will result in me doing everything possible to have your wikipedia account blocked. By the way, isn't it foolish to use your real name as your wikipedia user name? ;-) 172.163.241.71 17:24, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
I see that you're at it again, Phil. You just don't learn, do you. No wonder your candidacy for Rfa was resoundingly defeated! This time I will not get into an edit war with you. I will go through the appropriate channels to have your continued vandalism (persistant removal of legitimate and helpful external links) of this article stopped once and for all. I suggest that you grow the hell up! 172.135.184.176 20:00, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
Certainly, a newspaper article about the 150th anniversary of the oldest Roman Catholic church in Staten Island (which is located in Rossville) cannot be considered "spam"! I have resubmitted that external link, and I'd like to ask you to control yourself and not remove it, Mr. Gronowski. Thank you. 172.135.184.176 20:28, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
The following RfC was posted earlier today in order to end this dispute once and for all. I trust that Philip Gronowski will abide by the findings of the administrator who makes a decision concerning my dispute. 172.135.184.176 21:15, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
Hello. I have made some contributions to this article in the past, and I am appalled at what is going on in respect to the edit war concerning external links which have been added, and then deleted, by the "warring parties". I agree 100% with Gosgood, and believe that instead of adding unreferenced external links to this article, it would be far more constructive to take some photos of the scrap yard, release them under GFDL, and add them to the article. I live near Rossville, and if the anonymous editor doesn't do so himself, I will add content to the article concerning the Whitte Brothers Marine Scrap Yard which is located off of Arthur Kill Road in Rossville. Additionally, once the weather gets a little nicer, I will consider taking a trip down to the scrap yard myself in order to take some photos. If there is a consenus, I will add a photo depicting the scrap yard to the article and release it under GFDL. I hope that my proposal can bring some civility to the dispute between these individuals who are continuing to engage in this ridiculous and immature edit war. Thanks. Citizen Dick 14:36, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
I restored the external links to the Forgotten NY and the Undercity.org webpages, as now there is reference to them in the article. If there are still objections to their inclusion in this article, please state your case here. Thanks! Citizen Dick 17:56, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
Since I added references as requested, I'd like to ask that the WP:REF tag which "NE2" inserted be removed from the article! I would remove it myself, but I don't know if I would be in violation of Wikipedia's policies if I did so. Thanks. Citizen Dick 11:05, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
I believe that this article deserves better than a Start-Class quality scale rating, therefore I would like to request that this rating be re-evaluated and adjusted accordingly. Thank you. 24.168.42.143 09:35, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
