West Windsor article
The information aded in your latest edits for the article for West Windsor Township, New Jersey draw conclusions regarding a report from the West Windsor-Plainsboro district that are not in the report itself. Statements such as "Today the community is trying defend its position as one of New Jersey's best residential areas." and "The Superintendent's conclusions are sobering." are both your opinion and violate Wikipedia policy on neutral point of view.

Hello
Hi Marshal. I still remember our discussions on council nights. if I can help you on Wikipedia, let me know. DES (talk) 01:16, 25 May 2017 (UTC) (David Siegel)


 * David, thank you very much for your offer. I desperately need your help in that I do not seem to be able to figure out how to post updates to the West Windsor page. First off, how have you been? Long time no see. I hope you and yours are all well.


 * As you may have heard the Howard Hughes Corp is seeking to develop the old American Cyanamid site. The proposal is not being well received by the community because of its size, proposed change in land use and expected impact on the township. I just want the info on wiki to be balanced rather than biased in favor of HHC. There was a recent article by Vincent Xu published on MercerSpace. Here's the link: http://mercerspace.com/2017/05/16/west-windsor-residents-vocally-oppose-howard-hughes-plan/. Your help would be much appreciated.
 * I am well, if over-busy, living in Maryland, near DC.
 * I will look into how to use that article, and possibly other sources, in the matter. Has there been coverage in other news outlets? Trenton Times? Any of the weeklies? Sources, reliable sources, are essential in getting any content into a Wikipedia article. Posting on the basis of "what I know' without published sources is very likely to be reverted. You might want to read Referencing for Beginners on how to cite sources here. DES (talk) 01:48, 25 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Oh to get my attention here, include  in a signed commetn on any talk page, or post to User talk:DESiegel (which is my own user talk page). Help is also available at the Teahouse -- I hang out there a bit. DES (talk) 01:48, 25 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Oh, one signs talk page comments with four tildes (~) . The software converts these into your user name and a timestamp, or a customized signature you specify, like mine. DES (talk) 01:51, 25 May 2017 (UTC)


 * David, Thank you. There was some news coverage of the HHC proposal in the last couple of years but those articles largely repeated the press releases by HHC and that's what made it onto Wiki. There is an upcoming Planning Board session of some significance on July 26. HHC will be making a formal application to change its zoning from Office/Manufacturing/Research to something akin to mixed use allowing for a large residential component. The session is expected to attract a great deal of public involvement. You may want to touch base with Alison for her take on the project. From what I can tell she would prefer something different than what the developer proposed. I will read the link you recommended. Marshalllerner (talk) 02:07, 25 May 2017 (UTC)
