Talk:Warehouse

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Earlier today I removed the line that said

"Vacant warehouses were an often used location in the late 1980s and early to mid 1990's for illegal raves."

I got reverted quite harshly. Sorry if I offended anyone.

My reasons to remove the line:

1. Vacant warehouses have been used for illegal activities of all sorts, as have vacant buildings of all types. I don't see that this is a particularly notable aspect of warehouses in particular.
2. The sentence seemed vague to me, and didn't come with a reference, which would have allowed the topic to be expanded.

I won't take it out again, since Alkivar seems quite determined to keep it in. --Dbenbenn 02:41, 12 Dec 2004 (UTC)

I modified that line, because while it may be true, it serves no purpose to add that people party in abandoned warehouses. Are we next going to say "After dark, some parks are used for selling drugs or prostitution..."? I am going to have to side with the statement from Dbenbenn in December 2004- Illegal activities have taken place in a variety of vacant buildings, but that doesn't mean it needs to be included in an education tool such as this.
