[edit] Needs map

This article needs a "red dot-on" map. Badagnani 05:26, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

Did the best I could...the people formerly making these maps, with the knowhow to do it well, seem to have abandoned the project. Badagnani 23:59, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

It looks good to me and I know the area well. Historybuff72 03:17, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] need citation advice

Martha Stewart's trademark applications (there are four)are actually for "Katonah", not the Katonah collection. A search on Katonah on the United States Patent and Trademark website [1]using their search trademark (TESS) facility produces a list of the proposed trademarks. Unfortunately, a search cannot be linked to the wikipedia article, so although I would like to correct this comment, I don't know how to provide a link to the supporting information. I hesitate to edit this until I can provise an appropriate link - can anyone help? I'm new at this. Historybuff72 22:01, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

Good investigative work! Better, in fact, than CNN and the other news outlets, who often don't check these things. Just add the trademark terms as they appear in the website, explain what the website is where you found this, and put a footnote (or I'll make a footnote for you). Badagnani 22:25, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for your help. I've added the information and tried to provide a link to the trademark website, but that didn't seem to come through. Please feel free to change what I've done if it can be improved. Historybuff72 23:41, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

Looks good. But it seems that the four trademark applications have KATONAH in all caps. Does that mean she wouldn't have a trademark on that word in normal capitalization? Badagnani 23:43, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

Oh, I see--in looking at some other trademarks I see that they're all in all caps. So she is trying to patent the word Katonah! Badagnani 23:47, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

Yes, I was confused by that too, which is why I originally put Katonah in caps -but once you read the text it seems clear that Katonah in any type face or style is included, although only in regard to the specific items listed in each application. Thanks for making the link work. Historybuff72
