Boardman's status as an urban township should supercede its status as a Census-designated place [CDP] in the article. Rationale: Because urban townships are defined by the Ohio Revised Code as a unit of local government, and CDP's lack any such official definition by the State of Ohio, the designation "urban township" is more substantial than the CDP designation. -SwissCelt 17:19, 22 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Article in need of a real clean-up

There are some massive problems with this article, I think, and though I have tried to make it more neutral, and removed some of the blatently POV descriptors, I still think that this article is due for a rewrite. I admit to being a little at a loss with what to write, but large sections of the article are vague and unecessary. I'll probably keep working on this, but anyone who knows more about Boardman--or lives there--might be better at it than me, since I haven't been editing long. --XkarlmagneX 05:04, 8 August 2005 (UTC)
