Talk:Palmers Green

I've just removed a paragraph consisting of a series of news stories of recent (only one date given) violent incidents in Palmers Green. I'm pretty sure that one of them was inaccurate, and I was very unhappy about the unnecessary mention of the nationality of the mentally disturbed person involved. I had been going to correct the English, but it occurred to me that it was inappropriate for an encyclopaedia article.

I don't live in Palmers Green any more (I used to live in Park Avenue). I miss the Kurdish and Turkish supermarkets, though — are they still there? Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 23:01, 4 Feb 2005 (UTC)

[edit] palmers green today

don't you fucking dare delete this section again mel. You can't delete a section without any reason on the discussion page or in the edit summary, a section which is 100% true, a section written in brisk NPOV manner and intended to provide up-to-date information in an article that lacks it, a short article in need of expansion, not irrational reactionary preservation. I added info on what makes Palmers Green different from other similar areas, as per several wikipedia guidelines and policies and the spirit of an inclusive encyclopedia of notable entries. --86.143.171.239 12:42, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

Just like to point out that Bounds Green tube station is closer to Palmers Green that SOuthgate tube station by a long shot. and also, the Fox looks nice on the outside but isn't that great really. the new wetherspoons is really where people go in Palmers Green, called the Alfred Herring

Bounds Green tube station is closer to Palmers Green than Southgate tube station is, but it is not by a 'long shot', because the top of Fox Lane is in Palmers Green. Coyets 15:24, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Greek/Turkish Cypriot population

I'm not sure that the claim in the first paragraph about PG having the largest Cypriot population outside Cyprus is true. Certainly I can find nothing to confirm this. Even if it were true I'm not sure that this is such a defining characteristic of the place to warrant mention in the summary paragraph. If nobody can provide any evidence of this I'll remove the claim in a few days. It can always go back in if a proper reference is found. 212.188.166.125 (talk) 18:09, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
