I think the sentence about the gangs and the one about the "civil war" are not correct. I park in Wilkinsburg every day, go to the Farmers Market there, and my husband and I both drive through it regularly with no issues. Also, there are no citations for anything on this page.

I'm editing the paragraph re: LAW. In my opinion the entire thing could be deleted, but I'll leave that decision to someone else. However, the last three sentences are not necessary and certainly not encyclopedic, so I'm going to 86 them. Yem75 19:44, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

I've also added the best reference to the RICO indictments I could find. Admittedly it could be better, but it's a start.Yem75 19:52, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

I have no objections to any of these specific removals, but in general I like the idea of Wikipedia including information on a city's gangs. It seems like useful information that editors of traditional encyclopedias have no access to. Brock 17:07, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
