Regarding your edit at https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Newton,_New_Jersey&diff=661307244&oldid=661292530, I hope you can see that the administrative process of "incorporation" is distinct from when a populated place actually was founded and it is not useful to have one category set used for two different purposes in an indiscriminate manner. I would not be against have ] etc but ] (if you feel strongly about this then it would be no bad thing to revisit the question). As regards ], quoting the article, we have "Newton was first settled ... sometime before 1751", so assuming that the "sometime" in question was not more than 50 years then it would be correct to categorize Newton, New Jersey in ]. Finally, most populated places in the ] categorize by the date that the settlement actually was founded and so I don't really think it correct to say that I am "a user pushing a one-man consensus" as loads of other people have added articles to the category set on the basis of the date of actual foundation. I have played a leading role in establishing some guidelines for the use of the ] and if you disagree with what is written there then why not set out your ideas at ]? ] (]) 13:54, 9 May 2015 (UTC) | |||
* Sorry, {{u|Greenshed}} I'm not really that interested in your one-man crusade or a 9-year old discussion that decides nothing. All of NJ's municipalities, and many other states, are categorized this way without complaint. as for your precious category, the advisory of " or otherwise came into existence" in its inclusion statement is overly broad....FYI: 11 April 1864 is the date the Town of Newton was established, legally-came into existence, and the inclusion of Newton in 1864 is not unwarranted. If you want to play a game of semantics vis-a-vis established, incorporated, etc. don't waste my time or start edit-warring over this pedantic nonsense.--] (]) 14:01, 9 May 2015 (UTC) | |||
