Comments on New York City Community Boards notability[edit]

  • While the organizational notability of each individual community board article may be questionable, it is my contention that each article encompasses an individual community district, which passes the geographic notability test as a type of Populated, legally recognized places per WP:GEOLAND
  • Community districts need to be added to Template:Political divisions of the United States
