Your Revision to Upstate New York
I apologize for any mixup regarding my revision to Upstate New York. I was almost certain I posted a response. Basically, what I initially wrote is that as an Upstate New Yorker myself, I'd say it's fairly well known that Western NY, Central NY north at the Finger Lakes, and obviously Northern NY would all count as Upstate, which is why I reverted the change.

 * I apologize for undo'ing your edit without a reply explanation (beyond that placed in the Edit Summary). I thought you were a bot!  Anyway, I think the status of WNY and CNY being part of 'Upstate' is very much in dispute, as evidenced by the article history and talk pages.  The solution (for that article anyway) has been to acknowledge both categorizations.  The initial edit I made in particular was due to the wording in the key.  WNY, CNY and North Country each separately said "often considered upstate", where a level of disambiguation seemed applicable and appropriate to the content of the graphic.  ie: "NC often considered", "CNY sometimes considered", "WNY often considered separate", all describe the range of degree of ambiguity of categorical identity while still doing so in relation to the categorization of Upstate (thereby achieving the objective of acknowledging both categorizations).  Happy to discuss further.--AndrewCStewart (talk) 13:09, 26 June 2013 (UTC)
