== "Coat of Arms"? == |

Do we actually have a source that identifies the familiar Beverly Hills sign as it's official [[coat of arms]]? That seems odd. The image is sourced to the BH official website, but I could find nothing indicating it has the status of a coat of arms.

== Beverly Hills == |

[[:Beverly Hills, California]] → {{no redirect|Beverly Hills}} – Longstanding recognition in popular culture as just "Beverly Hills" particularly with television shows, songs, and movies such as ''[[The Beverly Hillbillies]]'', ''[[Beverly Hills, 90210]]'', ''[[Beverly Hills Teens]]'', ''[[The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills]]'', and ''[[Beverly Hills Cop (franchise)|Beverly Hills Cop]]'', ''[[Beverly Hills Ninja]]'', ''[[Beverly Hills Chihuahua]]'', ''[[Beverly Hills, 90210 (soundtrack)]]'', ''[[Beverly Hills Bordello]]'', ''[[Beverly Hills (song)]]'', ''[[Down and Out in Beverly Hills]]'' and other related places and institutions such as [[Beverly Hills Oil Field]], ''[[The Beverly Hills Courier]]'', [[Beverly Hills Unified School District]], [[The Peninsula Beverly Hills]],[[Beverly Hills Post Office]], [[The Beverly Hilton]]. Per [[WP:USPLACE]]: "Articles on populated places in the United States are ''typically'' titled<nowiki> [[Placename, State]] or [[Placename, Territory]]"</nowiki>. Requested move for [[WP:CONSISTENCY]] in naming with associated articles. Edit: We have all of these articles with just "Beverly Hills" in their title, but the actual page of Beverly Hills on the wiki is somehow called "Beverly Hills, California."

:::The most famous song about New York was [[Theme from New York, New York|New York, New York]], so I'm not sure the pop culture argument is totally valid.

::::I think New York is a bad example of this because there's a legitimate argument that the City of New York could be at the title of just New York, also that particular song/movie title better fits the song lyrics.

*'''Comment''' CONSISTENCY would use [[WP:USPLACE]], which is the current name. Your rationale uses two different reasons, one (popculture) which is for your request, the other (CONSISTENCY) which is against your request -- [[Special:Contributions/70.51.44.60|70.51.44.60]] ([[User talk:70.51.44.60|talk]]) 04:37, 5 January 2016 (UTC) |
|||
*'''Oppose'''. [[WP:CONSISTENCY]] would use the [[WP:USPLACE]] guidelines and maintaining the current name with the state modifier, as 'similar articles' would be articles on populated places in the United States, not other pop culture articles (Per WP:CONSISTENCY: "Many of these patterns are listed (and linked) as topic-specific naming conventions on article titles". And WP:USPLACE is on one of those topic-specific naming conventions guidelines). And as per the WP:USPLACE guideline, cities listed in the AP Stylebook are the only ones that do not require the state modifier; Beverly Hills is not one of them. For more information on the [[WP:USPLACE]] guidelines, see the fourth question on [[Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (geographic names)/FAQ]] and [[WP:PERENNIAL#Remove state from US placenames|WP:PERENNIAL]].

|||
*'''Support''' I suffer a lot from [[Chicago|inconsistency]] after [[Dallas|inconsistency]] after [[Los Angeles|inconsistency]] after [[New Orleans|inconsistency]] after [[Atlanta|inconsistency]] after [[Seattle|inconsistency]] after [[San Francisco|inconsistency]], because all of our inconsistencies are what make Wikipedia something far less than a respectable encylopaedia and something much more like [[kindergarten]]. It would be nice if, some decade, Wikipedia could be recognized as a valuable source, not as something which most people still can't quite figure out what it is at all ("Oh, that's where anybody can just go in and change stuff, isn't it?"). Some sort of effort in establishing consistency as a strict general rule would help tremendously. In this case, at least as many readers know this city as Beverly Hills as know Minneapolis as just plain Minneapolis etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc - world without end, Amen(?). <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:SergeWoodzing|SergeWoodzing]] ([[User talk:SergeWoodzing|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/SergeWoodzing|contribs]]) 18:19, 5 January 2016 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> |
|||
*Regarding the points about inconsistency, there are only about 30 cities that do not follow the comma convention, which are explicitly listed at USPLACE. The remaining thousands and thousands of cities do follow the comma convention, so claiming consistency in this case would in fact support the status quo. '''[[User:kennethaw88|kennethaw88]]''' • [[User talk:kennethaw88|talk]] 19:35, 5 January 2016 (UTC) |

**In an alternative interpretation of [[WP:CONSISTENCY]], renaming the page as just "Beverly Hills" would make the title consistent with other Beverly Hills related articles on Wikipedia, such as the various media products described above.--[[User:Prisencolin|Prisencolin]] ([[User talk:Prisencolin|talk]]) 00:09, 6 January 2016 (UTC) |
|||
*** Making articles consistent with pop culture and other media topics and articles, rather than similar to articles within its own core topic, is probably not a valid one. When WP:CONSISTENCY says "''similar'' articles' titles", and referencing the [[Template:Naming conventions|topic-specific naming conventions on article titles]], it is primarily referring to articles within the same core topic. At its core, [[Beverly Hills, California]] is a U.S. city article, not a pop culture or media-topic article, so it should be consistent with other U.S city articles (in this case the USPLACE guidelines). [[User:Zzyzx11|Zzyzx11]] ([[User talk:Zzyzx11|talk]]) 13:00, 6 January 2016 (UTC) |
|||
*'''Oppose''' per Zzyzx11. AP maintains a list of cities which do not require the state in datelines ([http://writingexplained.org/ap-style/ap-style-datelines here, probably not official]); Beverly Hills is not listed. In fact, the link gives Beverly Hills as a specific example of a city which ''does'' require the state. [[User:Ivanvector|Ivanvector]] <span style="color:red">🍁</span> ([[User talk:Ivanvector#top|talk]]) 20:27, 5 January 2016 (UTC) |
|||
**According to writingexplained.com's [http://writingexplained.org/about about page] doesn't look like the website originates from the AP itself.--[[User:Prisencolin|Prisencolin]] ([[User talk:Prisencolin|talk]]) 22:10, 5 January 2016 (UTC) |
|||
***Ivanvector did state that the link was "probably not official". The AP Stylebook is more of an [[Wikipedia:Offline sources|offline source]], but you can see it in various articles on the AP's websites like [http://bigstory.ap.org/article/ddda54a2680042c3af2065d077f8c4c8/dennis-quaid-stars-auction-house-drama-art-more this one], where the dateline at the beginning of the text reads with "BEVERLY HILLS, Calif.", not merely "Beverly Hills". [[User:Zzyzx11|Zzyzx11]] ([[User talk:Zzyzx11|talk]]) 13:26, 6 January 2016 (UTC) |
|||
****Well doesn't that suggest that the page ought to be moved to Beverly Hills, Calif. then? Obviously not, but the point is that English style guidelines arent immediately applicable to that of Wikipedia.--[[User:Prisencolin|Prisencolin]] ([[User talk:Prisencolin|talk]]) 19:26, 6 January 2016 (UTC) |
|||
*'''Oppose''' for consistency and per USPLACE. I don't agree with the guideline, but if there is going to be a change to it, it should be discussed and done wholesale, rather than through piecemeal moves like this. --Regards, [[User:James Allison|James]](<sup>[[User talk:James Allison|talk]]</sup>/<sub>[[Special:Contributions/James Allison|contribs]]</sub>) 18:40, 7 January 2016 (UTC) |
|||
**What? This is a [[WP:IAR]] type move, I don't think a wholesale moving should be necessary to move this single page. --[[User:Prisencolin|Prisencolin]] ([[User talk:Prisencolin|talk]]) 20:15, 7 January 2016 (UTC) |
|||
*'''Oppose''' per WP:USPLACE, which is itself supported by the [[WP:Reliable sources]] rule; we title our articles about cities as is done by most newspapers, which follow the AP stylebook. Another reason: stability ([[Wikipedia:Article titles#Considering title changes|"If an article title has been stable for a long time, and there is no good reason to change it, it should not be changed."]]; this article has been continuously titled "Beverly Hills, California" since its creation in 2002.) Finally, "[[Beverly Hills]]" is already a redirect to this article, so nothing would be gained by retitling it. Note that this same proposal was made here at this very page in September-October 2012, see [[Talk:Beverly Hills, California/Archives/2012#Requested move]]. The result was "No move". [[User:MelanieN|MelanieN]] ([[User talk:MelanieN|talk]]) 02:31, 10 January 2016 (UTC) |
|||
**[[WP:CONCISE|Titling conciseness]] and [[WP:COMMONNAME|a reflection of what the subject is actually called]] would be gained with the move. In other words I'm requesting the move to show show that the city is commonly referred to by just "Beverly Hills" as seen in many films and television show as well as reliable print sources.--[[User:Prisencolin|Prisencolin]] ([[User talk:Prisencolin|talk]]) 02:31, 12 January 2016 (UTC) |
|||
*'''Oppose''' This, again? It has been established that arguing on this small issue here, multiplied by 50,000 other articles, is wasteful of editors attention. I and most others want a simple, reasonable policy/rule instead. That is wp:us place.

This entire story is so inaccurate i dont where to start. Beverly hills began when burton green couldnt buy a house in Hancock Park (because he was Jewish). It was called Beverly Hills because his wife’s name was Beverly. Hence, beverly blvd. beverly drive. Burton avenue. There were no race restrictions. Only that each home be 1 acre in size north of wilshire boulevard. The south was reserved for the working class. Their child “dolly green” was an equestrian. Yes. He did build the Beverly Hills hotel. It burned to the ground and was rebuilt. This is why wikipedia doesnt work when it comes to facts.

We have developed some disagreement over the use of the word "affluent" in the lead sentence. Let's quit reverting each other and discuss it here. Those who want it provide sources, and point out that virtually everyone describes the community as affluent (we could provide a dozen sources). Those who don't want it say that there has been a decision elsewhere at Wikipedia not to use words like this in describing cities. {{ping|John from Idegon}} could you explain here, as you explained to me, why you are removing this word? {{ping|James Allison}} could you join the discussion? --[[User:MelanieN|MelanieN]] ([[User talk:MelanieN|talk]]) 17:20, 19 May 2016 (UTC) |
|||
:Per [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Cities#Request for comment|this RfC]], use of economic status indicating adjectives (specifically: Affluent, poor) is depreciated. "There is rough consensus against the inclusion of terms such as "affluent" or "poor" in ledes to articles on cities and towns in general. " |
|||
:My reasoning: |
|||
#Affluent has no specific meaning, no defined metric upon which to measure it and is subjective. What it means to you it might not mean to me. I cannot see how it is any different than "Awesome" as a modifier, except that we are obviously talking about financial things when we say affluent. No one would question the labeling of "Awesome" as [[WP:PUFFERY|PUFFERY]]. As I said, I see no real difference. |
|||
#On the metrics: Probably the most common metric for affluence is median household income. Modal income would probably be better. Probably an even better metric would be modal home value. But still rich to me and rich to you are never going to be the same thing. |
|||
#Altho logic dictates that there are far more poor communities in the world than affluent, the word affluent is used much more frequently in article ledes. This lends credence to the puffery argument. It also takes me to my next point. |
|||
#Many of the additions of affluent that I have seen and reverted over the years appear to have been added as a marketing point. This is a real concern in many areas on Wikipedia. We are slowly getting taken over by the SEO crowd. |
|||
#Lastly, {{ping|James Allison}}, you stated in an edit summary that if any community is affluent it is Beverly Hills. I think you may be surprised if you research either median household income or median home value. I do not have the time right now, but I am pretty sure BH isn't even in the top 5 for either....probably not in the top ten either. Yet another puffery based argument.

|||
:::John, I will defer to the result of the RfC and leave it out. However, I disagree with your points 1 and 2. It would not be up to us to decide whether a community is "affluent" or not based on metrics; that would be [[WP:OR]]. Our job as encyclopedists is to reflect what independent reliable sources say. If many truly independent sources use the term "affluent" to describe a community, particularly if they frequently use it as a primary descriptor, that would be our cue to include it in our primary descriptor as well. Examples: [http://www.reuters.com/article/bankruptcy-venoco-idUSL2N18A01O] [http://www.ibtimes.com/inside-radical-plan-launch-fleet-self-driving-shuttles-beverly-hills-2370349] [http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-wealthy-cities-lag-in-conservation-20150404-story.html] As I said, I will defer to the RfC, but IMO that is the ONLY reason for omitting it; there really are solid, policy-based reasons why it has been there for so long. --[[User:MelanieN|MelanieN]] ([[User talk:MelanieN|talk]]) 20:33, 24 May 2016 (UTC) |
|||
::::Those are much better sources than what was on the article I agree. And I do think that most would describe Beverly Hills as affluent. But at the end of the day, that would still be editorializing on the part of the journalist writing the story. We don't use editorial content from media sources; I don't see using editorializing as productive either. More so than newspapers, an encyclopedia is supposed to be factual. An adjective that has no definitive meaning does not do that. My last point was meant to show that the perception of affluence does not always match the facts. According to [http://www.city-data.com/top2.html this], Beverly Hills isn't even in the top 100.

"Coat of Arms"?
Do we actually have a source that identifies the familiar Beverly Hills sign as it's official coat of arms? That seems odd. The image is sourced to the BH official website, but I could find nothing indicating it has the status of a coat of arms. Beeblebrox (talk) 21:23, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
- It's actually referred to as a "shield," and I invite you to make the textual change 'cause I don't know how to do it. See https://www.newspapers.com/image/192597188/?terms=Beverly%20Hills%20Shield&match=1. Thanks. BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 21:38, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
- {{help}} - Whoever knows how: pls change the caption under what is not a coat of arms to read "Shield".
- I thought this would be easy but I am also unable to figure it out. I did rename the file over at Commons, the field it is under in the infobox was already "image_shield" so I'm fairly baffled. Beeblebrox (talk) 23:55, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
Done I figured it out by looking at the infobox documentation. Beeblebrox (talk) 00:00, 10 October 2021 (UTC)

Beverly Hills
This entire story is so inaccurate i dont where to start. Beverly hills began when burton green couldnt buy a house in Hancock Park (because he was Jewish). It was called Beverly Hills because his wife’s name was Beverly. Hence, beverly blvd. beverly drive. Burton avenue. There were no race restrictions. Only that each home be 1 acre in size north of wilshire boulevard. The south was reserved for the working class. Their child “dolly green” was an equestrian. Yes. He did build the Beverly Hills hotel. It burned to the ground and was rebuilt. This is why wikipedia doesnt work when it comes to facts. 190.218.230.250 (talk) 21:18, 26 February 2023 (UTC)
- The content in the History section of this article is reliably sourced, while none of your claims are. General Ization Talk 21:25, 26 February 2023 (UTC)
- By the way, Burton E. Green's wife was named Lillian, not Beverly, and the Beverly Hills Hotel never burned down. General Ization Talk 21:27, 26 February 2023 (UTC)
Broken article
I do not know what has happened, I didn't cause it but I came across this article and it appears to be broken. I am not a skilled enough editor to attempt to fix it, so perhaps this message can get to someone more qualified to fix it (as said before I did not break it, I found it this way.)
