Advice: I have this article and Orleans Arena on my Watchlist. It was very easy to see that you editted Orleans Arena to suit your edit on the WCC MBT. Please don't try that again.--Morenooso (talk) 05:40, 10 March 2010 (UTC)

Response to Morenooso Re: Paradise,Las Vegas

Paradise is an almost entirely disregarded entity. It has no city government. It is not recognized by the United States Postal Service. No major business with said area promotes itself as being anywhere other than "Las Vegas". The official website of both the arena and the hotel list the location as being "Las Vegas".

I honestly felt and still do that use of the word Paradise potentially causes confusion to potential visitors. I had seen on other Wikipedia pages location designated as "Las Vegas" with a link to "Las Vegas Metropolitan Area" which is a different page and explains its inclusion of Paradise and Winchester and whatever. So, thought it was acceptable. Still believe that it offers more clarity to the largest number of potential users.

Didn't know that you were supposed to be someone in authority. And I was not looking to cause some sort of trouble.

I am not in charge but I know my articles and I have a friend who grew up there. As per its article, most people don't know that when they are on the Strip, they are actually in Paradise, NV. You made a a major boo-boo by trying to change one article to satisfy your need to revert my revert of your initial entry on the WCC BBT article. That doesn't set well on Wikipedia. I wouldn't try that again if I was you. --Morenooso (talk) 04:08, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, you already said that. I already explained my motivation there. I am not sure what you want at this point.

Not much. However, when someone replies on a talkpage especially to a warning, it is courteous to reply.--Morenooso (talk) 04:27, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
