Meaningless drivel edit

This edit restored text that had previously been deleted:

B.O. is the fetching belt of multiculturalism evoking the non-linear soul misconfiguration of the Lower East Side in Manhattan without the seasonal change between Fall, Winter and Spring. With a population over 11,467 residents from all around the Caribbean Basin, Barrio Obrero is the sturdiest melting pot for west indian communities under on authentic ethnic halo in the island of Puerto Rico.[1]
Some of the streets meandering around its neighborhood include Webb, Brazil, NiN, San Antonio, Williams, Avenue C and Valparaiso.[2]
Calle Ribot was exchanged for Cortijo and it is now the crossover between AdC and Farmers' Market next to Condadito.

There are so many problems with this text:

  1. What is a "fetching belt"?
  2. What is a "non-linear soul misconfiguration"
  3. There is nothing in the census reference that states anything about the ethnic mix of the area
  4. There is nothing particularly notable about the streets in the neighborhood -- while the neighborhood itself is probably notable, its local streets are not.
  5. Linking "Calle Ribot" to the article on Marc Ribot is a little startling as there is no evidence given that the street and the musician have anything to do with each other. Same for Rafael Cortijo.
  6. How does one exchange streets? I don't even know what that sentence means.

Plastic Beach (talk · contribs) complained when I undid the addition of this text the last time with only a brief edit summary, so I am providing a detailed explanation of why the material is being deleted this time. Please remember that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a travel guide. Articles about places are supposed to list verifiable facts, not fanciful opinions.
