Talk:List of neighbourhoods in Toronto
Too many?
Don't people think some of these neighborhoods are too small to show up on any map of Toronto? Maybe we should consolidate. 69.158.173.251 09:05, 25 November 2005 (UTC)
- Note that Toronto seems to have greater covereage in Wikipedia than most cities. This has come up on AfD occasionally, and it seems that Torontonians are willing to accept articles about smaller neighbourhoods, streets of less importance, smaller shopping malls, etc... than most other cities would allow.

Broadview
Sorry, I've lived in Toronto my whole life and have never heard of an area called Broadview. I've edited it, if you can tell me where this area is, I'd be more than happy to let it stand. User:Nlsanand
Corso Italia
I'd like to request that someone write a Corso Italia (Toronto neighbourhood) article. I've already requested it in the "official" place, but I figured it couldn't hurt to put the request here too, since someone who might be interested in writing it might see it here. --Trovatore 03:44, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
- That should probably be Corso Italia, Toronto to keep with naming conventions. It's an interesing neighbourhood, and worth an article... but I'm not the one to write it. Segv11 (talk/contribs) 07:26, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
Done. The article is a stub, and could do with expansion, etc., but I think its a reasonable start. Historical information on Corso Italia is difficult to find, but I managed to dig up a couple of websites. --Stetson 06:11, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
Lawrence Park
Lawrence Parks is listed twice, once in "north end" (Old City) and again in North York. It is most definitely north end of the old city... the borders with North York fall outside the neighbourhood. I've deleted the duplicate. (The northern border of the old city was at the top of the descent into Hoggs Hollow, missing Lawrence park by almost 1km. The eastern border (in this area) crossed Lawrence Ave halfway down the hill between Wanless Crescent and Mildenhall Road... which means that the border was just barely outside the boundaries of Lawrence Park.)

Agreement in the Neighbourhood pages
I made the following comment on the Toronto discussion page, but perhaps it's more relevant here:
It would be good if some group effort could be put into building some unity and agreement in the Toronto Neighbourhood pages. Some of the information ends up being contradictory; for instance, on the Bloor Street page Portugal Village is listed as a community; however, the Portugal Village page says that the community is bound by Bathurst, Dundas, Queen and Trinity Bellwoods Park. This area doesn't include Bloor, so perhaps it shouldn't be listed as a community on Bloor St. I decided to start a discussion here, since it seems to me that agreement between the Toronto neighbourhood pages is a general issue.
Is there another place where this issue should be mentioned?--Stetson 04:34, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
