Obvious POV fork created after discussions about including this content at Scarsdale, New York went against the creating user. MrOllie (talk) 02:46, 21 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Um, hard to see how it can be a fork if the content is NOT now at Scarsdale. Whether it's encyclopedic is a different question. Chiswick Chap (talk) 11:44, 21 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

To quote WP:POVFORK: In contrast POV forks generally arise when contributors disagree about the content of an article or other page. Instead of resolving that disagreement by consensus, another version of the article (or another article on the same subject) is created to be developed according to a particular point of view. This second article is known as a "POV fork" of the first, and is inconsistent with policy: all facts and major points of view on a certain subject should be treated in one article. As Wikipedia does not view article forking as an acceptable solution to disagreements between contributors, such forks may be merged, or nominated for deletion.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete Blatant POVFORK, and an unusual one at that. Any content here could be included at Scarsdale, New York if consensus was built, and all of it likely breaches undue coverage. The affluence of Scarsdale is not notable independent of Scarsdale itself any more than it would be for say, Atherton, California. The only "Wealth of X" page we seem to have is Wealth of Donald Trump, where it's clear that the particular topic is independently notable.
