[edit] Scope includes major districts

The name of the template is perhaps a bit ambiguous since "neighborhood" itself is imprecise. It's worth pointing out that the precedent on this template is that it covers major districts of San Jose, not every little neighborhood. Think in terms of areas comparable with other cities in Silicon Valley. It's obvious why the original author of the template did it this way. If we set the bar lower than that, this template would grow uncontrollably - there are literally hundreds of minor neighborhoods in San Jose, most of which would not meet Wikipedia's test of notability.
