Coldplay citation?[edit]

Hi, there is no citation to this reference and it seems highly unlikely that a world famous british band wrote a song inspired by queensboroughs port royal. If someone has a proper citation then that's great but if not I think it should be taken out. I live in a New West and I've not been able to find anything that suggests they've ever heard of the area. There are no sources (save one QB page that is basically a copy and paste of this Wikipedia article) that mention this. Either someone got this confused with the British audio mixing studio port royal (in the UK, not I'm new west!) or someone decided to be silly and made up a tall tale. - having looked at the history of this page it seems someone is regularly vandalizing it by claiming various famous people have resided in the area. From mike Tyson to body builders. It's all quite silly. There is virtually no way that coldplay wrote a song about it and since there is no citation I'm going to remove that one line. My "reason for" looks insane in the history talk because I submitted by accident. It was supposed to say I took out the coldplay reference because not only was it not cited it was likely vandalism. Sorry, I'm new to wiki editing! 70.71.0.16 (talk) 15:46, 22 January 2014 (UTC)New West Gal[reply]

Article name question[edit]

I'm not all that familiar with Canadian place naming norms on Wikipedia, but shouldn't any place that is a neighborhood be in the format of "Neighborhood, City" (thus "Queensborough, New Westminster")? Bumm13 (talk) 07:22, 14 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This page answers my question pretty well (I think). Queensborough has no separate entry for Canada Post addresses so it should probably be moved to "Queensborough, New Westminster". Bumm13 (talk) 07:27, 14 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
