since when are derogatory names banned off wikipedia? im from the area and i hear the word 'scummerset' alot, why not put i on the article?

Thinking it over, I don't think it's just because it's derogatory (although honestly, that doesn't help). I live there, and have never heard that phrase used. It's also certainly not official, so there's a strong question of reference. It's not like calling Fall River the "Spindle City" or Taunton the "Silver City". Put it in an article subsection if you must, but I certainly don't think it has any business being in the infobox. m13b 14:35, 7 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Somerset, MA page editors/administrators,

My name is Tracy and I am an employee for The Standard Times website (SouthCoastToday.com).

The page link for Somerset, MA is http://www.southcoasttoday.com/apps/pbcs.dll/section?category=TOWN12 . This page contains all of the local news, events, photos, etc. specifically for Somerset, MA. I am writing today to request an addition for this link in your External Link section. If this is approved, can you please name the link SouthCoastToday.com/Somerset?

Also, please feel free to use any of the information on this page for the Wikipedia page. If you do use any of the information, please include us in your Reference link as SouthCoastToday.com/Somerset.
