[edit] False Notable Residents being Added to the Ridgewood, NY Wikipedia Page

On this page I keep on seeing Eric West and Jeannie Ortega under "Notable Residents". Don't be convinced that these people are of any celebrity or "notable" status. Do try to understand that these so-called notable residents possibly have developed their own Wikipedia pages. If you see their names under the "Notable Residents" section of Ridgewood, Queens do try to delete them again.

[edit] Ridgewood in Brooklyn?

I have redirected Ridgewood, Brooklyn/Queens back to Ridgewood, Queens because Ridgewood is primarily considered as being in Queens.

I live in the disputed area. I live on the Brooklyn side, near Wyckoff Heights Hospital and one block from the Queens border. The area around here is called Wyckoff Heights, and is preferred over Bushwick or Ridgewood. But I understand the raging debate about Ridgewood. Ridgewood and Bushwick are so intertwined, and they will continue to be so. --Tinlinkin 10:01, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

I always thought Ridgewood covered both Brooklyn and Queens. A small section near Palmetto and Myrtle on the Brooklyn side. Can anyone confirm Elhombre72 21:47, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

I thought Bushwick is now called "East Williamsburg" ... LOL Cheezydee 23:58, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Former Queens resident comments

As a former Queens resident with family roots in Bushwick and Ridgewood, I'm also aware of the controversy.

[edit] Ridgewood Ny

Until we can distinguish or seperate Brooklyn Ridgewood from Queens shall we just call it Ridgewood, Ny.? —Preceding unsigned comment added by FlushinQwnzNyc (talk • contribs) 02:40, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
