Davis Square on Wikipedia!

[photoprince.livejournal.com]

I stumbled across the Davis Sq. page on Wikipedia recently, and and found it to be insulting and a shambles. I did what I could to tidy it up and give a proper shout-out to the neighborhood, but my knowledge of the square is limited and out of date. (I lived near Davis Sq. for years until I moved to Australia a year ago.) 

If you have five minutes, take a look at the page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Davis_Square) and add your bit to the collective knowledge of the world!  It's like the ultimate opportunity to represent.  Any info on the history and public art of the square would be especially helpful.  Thanks!

That's actually discussed in that post Ron linked to just above... I clicked the link before I continued reading the comments here, and thought ukelele's comment (http://community.livejournal.com/davis_square/747200.html?thread=5919680#t5919680) summed up the issue.

Meaning I should have? Sorry.

Oh no, not at all. I was just pointing it out because I thought it was interesting when I went over there, and then scrolled down and the same discussion was beginning again. And I thought his/her point was an important one, that "walking distance" depends on what kind of walk you're measuring.

That was rather a good thread.
