Hello, I'm SounderBruce. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Black Diamond, Washington seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Try to cut down on information about specific developments unless they are covered by major regional news sources. Wikipedia is not a platform for advertising. SounderBruce 05:46, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
- Hi SounderBruce,
- I agree history should be neutral, non-bias, fact driven, with factual sources referenced. Everything I have published to wikipedia I look to have adhere to these standards.
- How the Master Planned Development Is Black Diamond's Rebirth
- In the late 1800, the City of Black Diamond was originally named due to the coal (black diamonds) the locals mined for a living.
- In the mid 1900's, coal mining died off, with the dying off of coal mining, so did the lively hoods, and future of the City of Black Diamond.
- Fast forward to 1990, in 1990 a new City Planner came had an opportunity to create something that had never been created before in the state of WA, that being a Master Planned Development.
- The significance of the first Master Planned Development for the City of Black Diamond has been covered by major news sources such as KUOW, Seattle Times, and many others; and has gone on public record to be the largest Master Planned Development in all of King County (the same county Seattle is in).
- Due to the sheer size (156 acres; largest Master Planned Development in King County) the Master Planned Development is not only part of Black Diamonds history, it is literally reshaping the city and everything around it; more over, what is odd is most people are not aware this reshaping is part of a master planning going all the back to 1996.
- Just like the or coal mining, or the depression, the implementation of a Master Planed Development has and is reshaping the City of Black Diamond into something historically and significantly different -- all by design.
- What I Trying To Do - Help People Understand Current Reshaping of Black Diamond, likend to Seattle's Wikipedia page
- The inspiration I took in crafting the Black Diamond information was from the Seattle and San Francisco pages:
- Given the above (impact of the Master Planned Development; structure and content used by other cities pages), how do we outline the significance of how the First Master Planned Development has and is reshaping the City of Black Diamond within the city of Black Diamonds wiki page?
