Goals
edit- Cleanup pages that are related to Boston
- Merge pages that should be merged
- Watch Boston pages for vandalism
- Create Pages for all Boston Neighborhoods
- Expand Pages for Boston Neighborhoods
- Expand and Create pages for Boston Personalities
Categories
editBoston Neighborhoods
editLooking for action items on the Neighborhoods and discussion as to if they should be separated into major neighborhoods and sub-neighborhoods. For instance Kenmore Square, Fens and Fenway-Kenmore could all be considered part of the Fenway of which there is no section. Also should clean up Boston Neighborhoods adding a quick blurb about each section.
