Listed as a village in Town of North Hempstead. Is it really a village and when did it become one?

Manhasset is not a village. It has villages in it though. And that census data seems funny. It seems to be school census data (from busing) and not actual home ownership data in Manhasset, as almost everyone is white and the next largest group is Asian.

I've removed this person from the list of notable residents, as I do not believe that he is notable (or even verifiable). I have also nominated the article about him for AFD. If you would like to talk about this, please see my talk page. -Colin Kimbrell 16:17, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Census

Right; it's not a home ownership census; it's a people census. The census is for areas that are inside the school district but not incorporated in any village. Villages inside the Manhasset school district have their own census data. In a sense the "hamlet" data could be called school census data, since the boundary is a school boundary. It includes, incidentally, The Valley, which last I saw remained in the school district and remained a racial ghetto thoroughly segregated from the rest of Manhasset. Kindly remember to sign your comments. Jim.henderson 21:30, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Mhs indianhead.jpg

Image:Mhs indianhead.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 21:56, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
