Chinatown, Houston
Welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for editing!

One thing about this edit is that information needs to be weighted on how much other published sources agree with it. If various published sources simply disagree about something equally (say the boundaries of Chinatown), just explain who says what: Guy A says XYZ, Guy B says ABC.

 * This article that you cited does not say anything about the boundaries of Chinatown. Therefore it cannot be used to support any assertions about Chinatown's boundary. I will undo your edits and then review them to see which ones conform to published sources which explicitly support the information you put in the article. V says that published sources, not personal views/opinions, are the basis of Wikipedia articles. Please also note Original research should not be put in Wikipedia articles. You and your friends having beliefs about Chinatown's boundaries would be original research.
 * Thanks!

 * Re: Christy Chang, note that her remarks are published. Published remarks are to be included. Now, if say Christy Chang had a minority view and other published sources actively disagreed with her on a 100-to-one basis, then her views could be removed as being WP:UNDUE (Undue weight, meaning giving too much prominence to a hyper-minority opinion).
