Alvar Aalto

You asked me about my seemingly crazy tactic of removing references from the Alvar Aalto page. I am a specialist in Finnish architecture and also Aalto. Over the years I have contributed quite a bit to the Alvar Aalto page. References are indeed very important. And you will see that I am presently adding extra ones - but proper ones, not ones taken from a populist encyclopedia or tourist guidebook. The "references" added to quite a few of the names of Aalto buildings in the "Significant Buildings" section were utterly meaningless, and bear no correspondence between the reference and the list; it would be like sticking "Encyclopedia Britannica" next to every place name in Wikipedia. Over the next few days I hope to add far more references to the Aalto page. PLEASE DO NOT PUT BACK THE REFERENCES I REMOVED - I REMOVED THEM FOR GOOD SCHOLARSHIP REASONS. I am also presently adding masses of material the Architecture of Finland pages, with plenty of proper references.--TTKK (talk) 21:22, 12 February 2014 (UTC) Sorry that should read: presently adding masses of material to the Architecture of Finland pages --TTKK (talk) 21:28, 12 February 2014 (UTC)

2012 Population Estimate of La Verkin

It should have been sourced, but I might have sourced the link wrong.... Here is the link though. http://factfinder2.census.gov/faces/nav/jsf/pages/community_facts.xhtml#none if it doesn't show the city you might have to search it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hypernick1980 (talk • contribs) 21:05, February 25, 2014‎ (UTC)
