The revision history traces back to "22 October 2002" as the start of the article about " Weehawken Township, New Jersey" (later renamed as article "Weehawken"). It began, as typical, with just Geography & Demographics (no History). Since then, there have been over 295 edits to the article. No talk page existed, until today (18-Aug-2007), but perhaps, renaming from "Weehawken Township" lost any discussions under that article name. - Wikid77 05:17, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
18-Aug-2007: I have completed multiple tedious edits for general cleanup of the " Weehawken" article with about 140 changes, adjusting grammar, spelling, wiki-links, and adding about 50 commas/hyphens, after the previous 290 edits. No re-phrasing of sentences was done. I think the article cleanup is finished, so no need to tag "{{cleanup}}" now. (Did I mention "tedious" cleanup?) The effort indicates how few people (the " skeleton crews") actually clean-up WP articles: when 140 copy-edit changes are needed for a famous suburb of New York. - Wikid77 05:31, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
Should this section be scraped completely? It could become TV, or part of Film and TV, but is it worthwhile to keep all this "cute" mentions of Weehawken in this medium? Interesting, curious, and fun for those of us who love the little hamlet, but for an encyclopedia????? Other towns have such sections, but at some point they become unwieldly, don't they?

The name Weehawken is generally considered to have evolved from from the Lenape, but the two or three interpretations seem so different in essence, one a reference to the palisades or mouth of creek flowing from them, the other as
place of gulls. Is it possible that the name of the ship on which Peter Minuet, first governor of New Netherland, landed in the New World, named "Meeuwken", or "Seagull", may have spawned the latter interpretation?
Sisawehak meaning oysters; (now called e'sak (pl.) referring to the shells.

I tend to have a quick eye for refuting information that isn't true, nor can't be proven. There are two quotes, I've found, in this page, that show this. THe first one lacks severe integrity, compared to the second.
Many Irish families (with roots in New York City's Hell's Kitchen) and Italian families (who had started out in Hoboken) made it their home. Weehawken saw its highest census numbers in the 1930s, 1940s, 1950s, approaching but never quite reaching 15,000.
Where is the evidence to support this statement? This message also gives the wrong message on Weehawken's population growth. In between 1930-1960, they lost 1,300 people, while America was having ridiculous growth, in the baby boom. There's also much more immigration in Weehawkin in this era, than the average American city (it's over 40% Latino), and there's barely any room to expand a population. Weekhawken's one of the rare places that actually has a higher population density than Manhattan, and the property taxes are also high, and it's very industrial, so there's not much incentives to outsider's living there. What this quote also does is respect the heritage of Hell's Kitchen, by saying that's where there roots are. Ironically, few people in Hell's Kitchen, who are American today, have roots to Hells Kitchen or New York period. It's what you'd call a professional American transplant zone. By saying Irish moved from Manhattan and Italians moved from Hoboken, without links, is not credible information. Weehawken's historically done a worst job at withholding their own population than Hoboken, so without a reasonable explanation, or an explanation at all, or evidence, this quote has to be taken out.
In the 1970s, Cuban emigree families (many of whom had established themselves in North Hudson's "Havana on the Hudson") chose Weehawken as the place to live.
Cuban family's did move here, but most did so earlier. Most Cuban immigrant's who came to New Jersey, or the Northeast, did so before the Castro regime in 1959. Part of this is just common sense. Before 1959, you could take a plane into New York City, Newark, or a boat to New York, Bayonne or where ever if you wanted. Come July '59, the only way you were getting in was through South Florida, and by no coincidence, because many of those Cuban's who left were of the higher economic class having their wealth ceased, they decided to mostly live in the growing and affluent southern Florida. Because white's held disproportional amounts of wealth and education in Cuba prior to '59, that's why over ninety percent of Cuban-American's in Florida are white. Meanwhile, more reflective of the pre-1959 demography of Cuba, 67 percent of Cuban-American's in New Jersey, racially identify as white. So, most Cuban's who arrived to Jersey City, Hoboken, Weehawken, actually did so prior to '59, mostly during the late 40's and 50's, just like Puerto Rican immigrants. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.73.230.11 ( talk) 04:25, 12 April 2009 (UTC) Tom 72.73.230.11 ( talk)
In =Quotes that lack source or credibility being taken out= (above on this discussion page) the writer explains why certain statements were removed from the article. =historical populatios= (also above on this page) was a response. The reasoning for the removal (which asks for references, but provides none) is based on standard, stereotypical, and statistical approaches to an understanding of urban/suburban transition, population shifts, and immigration patterns that are not applicable to Weehawken, a small mucipality in the midst of the metropolis. The Finns, the Delanceys, , McGortys, the Leahys came from Manhattan's West Side. The Siricos, the D'Agostinos, the Iaconos, and Macinis came from Hoboken, and the Fits, Betancourts, the Varcarcels, and the Castros, came from Cuba. The Reidels, the Heinbachs, Getmannoffs, and Schwartzs rattled around in their big almost-empty houses. That just the way it was in town in the sixties and seventies. The field research (which comes from living there) is not documented. 87.210.7.209 ( talk) 16:10, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
That's all well in good in theory. There are B-class articles, a good example being Wall Street, that have long passages which are not referenced but make statements that are generally assumed to be true. I'm not incline to purge that article of unreferenced material and I'm not sure it would be appreciated either. Djflem ( talk) 12:06, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
In response to your scolding: One assumes that the person who writes the information assumes it to be true. You seem to assume that I'm suggesting that unsourced material be kept (or restored), which I did not and am not, but simply pointing out how incidently, subjectively, erractically policy is applied (as in the de-listed good article Wall Street). Research, writing, and fact-checking is admirable work that will build a encyclopedia, and I wish I would see more of it from the disproportionate number of editors who've elected or elevated themselves to policy police rather than add necessary, valuable, verifiable content. If you really wanted to point out "what I do wrong" you should have asked me to confine my discussion to the article and not its subject, the policy outline at the top of this page which I completely disagree with. Djflem ( talk) 20:55, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
Weehawken has always remained a desirable place to live. Stable neighborhoods, good housing stock and schools have made it one of Hudson County's best residential districts: a place to move to, especially when other areas such as Hoboken, Jersey City, Hell's Kitchen were in decline.
Opinions are subjective. I don't think anyone would deny that. I'm not going to sit here and argue whether or not it's a desirable place or not just for that reason. What can't be denied though is that it doesn't have the glamour image of Hell's Kitchen. What also can't be denied is math - in that, demographics. They had virtually identical demographical patterns prewar, in that of European ethnic groups. The two places are very similar culturally. But as I stated, the high property taxes and even higher population density, along with severe overpopulation would well out-balance any pro of moving there. I'm not saying a few people didn't do something here and there. Who's to say some from Hudson Co. aren't apart of the flock of yuppies moving to New York City or those new high rises in Jersey City or Hoboken? It'd only be a few like that too. My point being, it's not worthy of mentioning in an already largely detailed article that lacks sufficient sources in much of it.
Hell's Kitchen were in decline.
There was equivalent to worst population decline in Weehawkin. There were similar patterns of postwar immigration. Weehawkin was very classic looking of the rustbelt prewar too. Hell's Kitchen had a bit more diversity in it's imagery prior to WWII. So what I'm saying is that both places were in decline. The difference is Hell's Kitchen's tenaments were knocked down and new high and mid-rises were built for what'd eventually be yuppies like Alicia Keys mom who is native to Detroit or Sylvester Stallone's mother, who's from Washington. D.C. Tom Nyj0127 ( talk) —Preceding undated comment added 05:05, 5 September 2009 (UTC).
To imprint a statistical or stereotypical picture does not do justice to the article and obscures the real story of Weehawken's history.
To make comments on a page without citation is misleading and is not reputable. That's simple fact. When in stating that many people in Weehawken have roots to Hells Kitchen without source, that's exactly what you're doing. I'm not coming on here posting my statistical data on the main page. I'm using that as a basic demographical reference in my explanation. You're the one who has something to prove since you don't have citation in your highly questionable and disputable quotes. Tom Nyj0127 ( talk) —Preceding undated comment added 05:07, 5 September 2009 (UTC).
Weehawken has always remained a desirable place to live.
Maybe now. But back in the 50's or 60's, it was Hell's Kitchen on the other side of the river. The only difference was less wealthy American's and foreigner's would eventually become interesting simply because it's not in Manhattan. Instead, more traditional immigrant groups (mostly Latinos) took up residency in the place. You will still find a decent amount of European-American families in the area with roots to the place. It's more common of a place with residential homes. That's not something Hells Kitchen really ever had and definitely doesn't now.
Irish and Italian immigrant families who had established themsleves in more urbanized tenement neighborhoods and had become Irish-American and Italian American did indeed move there in the mid-century in the typical American move up the socio-economic ladder.
How exactly was it moving up the socio-economic ladder to move to a place with severe population decline among people who are descendants of the same groups in that area? You act like it's two totally different worlds on two sides of the river. It's not. It's very close. By postwar, Irish-American's had roughly had a good 3 to 4 generations in the U.S. and most Italians had been second or third generation, so I don't even know how your immigrant proposition is relavent there. You act as if Weehawken didn't have the same thing though. Suburbanization occurred after WWII from NJ cities (whether it be large or small - ex. Hoboken, Weehawken) to suburbs. There are no traditional suburbs in Hudson Co. that grew postwar due to one group of New Jerseyans or American's moving to there. Like I said, when you don't have evidence or source, it's a baseless statement. I'm not the one writing my opinion on history on Wikipedia articles.
The construction of the Lincoln Tunnel to the Shades (mainly Irish) made Hell's Kitchen a quick bus ride away, and the ride up the hill to the Heights (heavily Italian) from Hoboken made Weehawken a attractive suburb.
If it were an attractive suburb, why did the population decline? Why is it still in decline? Why is most of the real estate old? Why has the population gotten rapidly less European-American, not just in Weehawken, but all of Hudson Co., if white's (or Irish as you put it) were interested in moving there? A quick bus ride away? Sure. A lot of places are. Just because the bus gets you there doesn't mean you're moving there. Demographics speak for themselves. I respect your opinion. But I don't respect it as a source for knowledge. Sorry.
Simply put, Cuban families were not allowed to "buy into" Weehawken until the 1970's.
With all due respect, this theory is illogical, senseless and even immature. Not allowed? Like dogs or something, right? First of all, what ever bans there were on blacks (and exclusively only them via redlining) was banned around the time of the Civil Rights Act. Secondly, the majority of Cuban-American's (even in New Jersey) are European-American. They also came with more education and skill than the average immigrant (especially among Latin Americans) group of the time, so I don't think anyone was making the mean finger. We're talking about Weehawken. This isn't Mayberry. The reason it got less European-American (which started well below the 1970's) was because they didn't want to live in an extremely dense old industrial looking place. There standards in the 1950's and 1960's were more set on suburban landscape.
Like many areas in Greater New York, neighbors did not sell to the "Spanish", the perception being it would lead to the decline of the area.
Says who? And who exactly are the Spanish? What is your source? Are you some sort of Sociology Professor we should just respect for the sake you're speaking or are you just babbling your confusing opinion at us? I want sources. I was studies. Not your opinion. Your opinion only becomes valued on here once you're basing it off of that. Without that, we have no clue what you're thinking nor why you're thinking it.
It was not until the the Cuban population (who arrived in Union City in large numbers after the revolution) had "proved" themselves and could "afford" to move Weehawken, and then mostly Uptown in the numbered streets.
Where is that proof? Show me it. News articles? Census data? There's so much out there. Yet none for this? Believe it or not, there's not much disparity in terms of pricing between Weehawken and Union City.
It was also during this period that the children of German-language speaking vanguard who had established the area in the earlier in the century became greyer, older empty-nesters who remained in their large family homes leading in part to the population decline.
Who are you speaking of? German and Germanic language speaking immigrants from previous generations would have already been dead. German's were not historically the dominant European ethnic group in Weehawken or Hudson Co. in the 20th century. It's always been more Italian, Jewish and Irish.
That there are no quoteable sources for these facts does not make them them untrue.
Actually, it might do that. The point is these aren't facts because they can't be proven. They're your opinion - which like I said, I respect, but we can't rely on.
The Finns, the Delanceys, , McGortys, the Leahys came from Manhattan's West Side. The Siricos, the D'Agostinos, the Iaconos, and Macinis came from Hoboken, and the Fits, Betancourts, the Varcarcels, and the Castros, came from Cuba.
Says who? Don't you realize no one else has a clue what you're talking about? Did you just make up a bunch of random last names and try running along with that? You didn't provide an explanation as to why the population was decreasing (literally numerically) during this era. You think Weehawken is Howell, NJ, yet it's not. It has one of the highest population densities in the country and the amount of space is even more crammed in due to the amount of old homes.
The Reidels, the Heinbachs, Getmannoffs, and Schwartzs rattled around in their big almost-empty houses. That just the way it was in town in the sixties and seventies. The field research (which comes from living there) is not documented.
There is no field work. You're basing your opinion based off of an extremely small sample size which has no integrity. I'm not saying that to insult you. I'm saying that to be direct. You need evidence when it comes to field research. To all of us, your interpretation is as one person. It's not a sum of people. I've spoken to people in Weehawken and Hudson Co. about this, and even asked in reference to this question, to a variety of backgrounds, and they were all clueless. One person can think what ever he wants. It's his or her interpretation. That's not evidence though.
One cannot include material because one "lives there" because this makes it impossible for third party readers who do not live there to know if this information is reliable or not.
Exactly. Plus, that interpretation may even vary among people within that community. I've lived in 3 different places and I can tell you that there are dozens of different ways people looked on history and the present in all these areas. That's just human nature. If someone has little to no exposure to a place though, they wouldn't even able to create a personal interpretation.
It's not well and good "in theory", it's our practice, and for reasons explained above. Material cannot be included because it is "assumed" to be true (Assumed by whom?), it must be supported by reliable, verifiable sources.
What he's saying is there's a place for articles without sourcing (which are B class articles). It's more of an editorial type setting. In subjects that typically have less explicitness, such as Wall Street, it's understandable why that'd be the appropriate setting. In the history of a place, it wouldn't be. That is explicit. General statements can be made on Weehawken or any place. Unfortunately, saying people come from such and such is detailed. And details require sources. The sad reality is that a lot of that gets overshadowed on Wikipedia because those who work for the site or edit articles can't get to every article.
The best way I can put it is you have to think of writing an article on this page as being a lawyer. You need evidence to support your arguments. You can have your hunch or intuition. But without quotation from published sources, it's not viable. If you want to post your opinion, intuition or small sample of personal encounters, there's blogs and chat rooms for that.

I'm moving the following material here from the Geography section until it can be sourced:
Though small, Weehawken has very urban population density that is among the highest in the United States and comparable with that of nearby Jersey City. Weehawken is a residential community of primarily one- and two-family homes (many built during the Edwardian era) and low-rise apartment buildings.
Geographically, Weehawken has distinct neighborhoods: Downtown (or The Shades), The Heights, Uptown (which includes Kingswood Bluff), and The Waterfront, which since 1990s has been developed for transportaion, commercial, recreational and residential uses. Though some are long abandoned (e.g., Grauert Causeway), there are still several outdoor public staircases (e.g., Shippen Steps) throughout the town, and a number of dead-end streets.
Local zoning laws prohibit the construction of high-rise buildings that would obstruct sight-lines from higher points in town.

An administrator has recently reverted three edits stating {Revert.This has nothing to do with Weehawken}, (Revert per 2009 consensus. This material is not relevant to the subject of this article, (Revert. Prior consensus already determined this does not belong, and it is inappropriate to edit while a discussion is in progress on the material in question.) The first two appear to be based on his interpretations of [[ Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_New_Jersey/Archive_4#Regarding_municipality_articles, while the third based on same with reference to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject New Jersey/Hudson County Task Force#Use of templates for federal, state and county representation.

The defintion is open to interpretation, hence the request for clarification of the one being used, which is so slow in coming. If there are indeed GUIDELINES, they should be stated CLEARLY, which they are not in the COMPROMISE PROPOSAL, the (as noted, muddled) conclusion and only part of the above mentioned discusssions which established an agreement by editors that is of import here . The opportunity to apply the AGREEMENT in the last 4 edits by Nigtscream were wasted by not doing so, as is the opportunity to respond in a staightfoward SPECIFIC way to the material he has been reverting.

Those who favored adding information to city articles not about those cities could've modified the templates, which is what I thought they were going to do following the 2009 discussion. They didn't. That is their fault, not mine, as templates are not something I focus on in my editing. Nightscream ( talk) 17:52, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
I already answered your question. I did not apply those edits because I'm not the one who insisted on including material that isn't about the city in question. Others did. They can address that by changing the templates, and then adding those templates to the sections in question. Those who edit those templates chose not to do so for reasons that are unclear (They forgot, they each thought someone else would do it, they lost interest, they thought they could get away with not doing so because they thought no one would notice, etc.). No one added those templates back to the Hudson County articles until you and Alan began doing so recently. Since you two have ignored the prior consensus, why should I include material in those sections that I only conceded to as a compromise with others? You ignore the 2009 discussion, and even claim a possible "change to consensus", even though the only ones who added the templates to articles on other counties' cities was Alan himself, and four years before that discussion, and neither he nor others like A Stop at Willoughby followed up by changing them, but now I'm supposed to adhere strictly to a compromised version of the info that you show nothing but contempt for? No. I'm not. You don't get to ignore a consensus solution that met in the middle, and then hypocritically complain when someone else hasn't adhered to that same proposal to your liking. Nightscream ( talk) 01:36, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
The smoke and mirrors above does not address those questions, now a very simply break-down of the first request made under this heading that after reverting material three times, a very very specifc interpretation of the consensus mentioned and how it is being applied to this page as it is currently published with his last version would be appropriate. Reading through the rattle above, one gleens that Nightscream feels that others are not following his interpretation of how the flawed model text for the compromise agreement should be applied, and subsequently is under no obligation to do so himself. This "they don't, so I won't" stance is unconstructive at best, and from an administrator is abuse which should be brought to the attention of the wider community. Contibutions made in good faith are first and foremost, the frontline and most important, representations of a contributor's efforts to improve aricles. Nightscream has been given sufficient opportunity to explain his edits on this "discussion/talk page for the Weehawken article" and to elaborate how they have made an improvement to the content of the reader page. When is he going to a) do that, b) make a another suggestion for an improvement of this ariticle c) exclude himself from editing on this point? Djflem ( talk) 17:05, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
