Crime in the United States
Hi, I recently noticed you changed the statistics in my Crime in the United States article. Now, the statistics no longer correspond with the cited references. When you change a figure, you need to give your source. Please don't just remove sourced figures and replace them with unsourced ones. This leads to me to my next question - What is your source? Where does it say that NYC is safer than SJ? I used the US Bureau of Justice Statistics and FBI Crime reports. So please, next time you want to replace referenced statistical figures in the article, you need to a) make sure your source is more reliable than the previous one and b) change the source. We just can't have data that doesn't match the links in the reference sections. If you have a better source than I do let me know, we'll change the figures and the references.

 * mmm... It appears we used similar sources, so how those mistakes would have crept in, I don't know. Anyways, then please update both the stats and the sources. Though, if you don't mind could you look at the sources I used in the reference section (most of them come from the Bureau of Justice Statistics (just click on the link to see the page). The stats for cities are from '04 to my knowledge and I have quite frankly troubble explaining any difference between the stats you get from the FUC and those on the page. Nonetheless, please feel free to correct any figures that are different from the FUC '05. BTW: Use the ~ at the end of a comment on someone's talk page.

Disambiguation link notification for March 10
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Marriottsville, Maryland, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page George Howard. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
