material without sourcing. I read the book "not a genuine black man", and while the book may have information on the details of the covenants (i dont recall the details given in it), it most assuredly did not take a positive approach to the covenants, which was the impression given by having long paragraphs with only 1 reference at the end, which may only have been a source for some statistics. any sourcing from that book would have to give page numbers, with inline citations for each statement. i left in the bare bones decade by decade population breakdown, with last statement needing a citation, but presumably correct. I have placed a tag cautioning editors about this controversial subject on the talk page. If material is added back without sourcing, i will remove it again, and if added back with sources, but without due weight being considered, I will add a tag to the article itself, but its not an issue now that i have removed it.
261:- if that's the right word, I'm trying to say it's written from a european/european-Amerrican viewpoint rather than an Indigineous Peoples/ Native American viewpoint. For example, The "History" section starts out "San Leandro was first discovered on March 20, 1772 by Spanish soldier..." but for anyone who has studied California, it's obvious that the whole bay area was "heavily populated", in terms of populations of Indiginous Peoples of the time, and going back several hundred if not thousands of years. I guess it's a question of Knowledge (XXG) style, and perhaps I should be looking at 174: 80: 53: 90: 22: 214: 162: 518:
in favor of such covenants, any sources which show such support for covenants would have to be balanced by sources which showed opposition to such covenants, so as to give due weight to both sides, both as they existed at the time, and how the debate is viewed today. Please do not simply add back the

The material in this article on restrictive covenants (also known as racial covenants) and the history of san leandro was almost entirely unsourced, and was highly biased in its coverage. Anyone who wants to add back any of the statements i have removed needs to have sources from reliable, notable,

instead of shooting my virtual mouth off here... but as an (originally) American phenomenon, how does Knowledge (XXG) as an entity view the question of eurocentricity in articles such as this one? (Oh, so I did look, and it does not seem to be addressed... hmmm). I'm not

Before making any potentially controversial changes to the article, please carefully read the discussion-page dialogue to see if the issue has been raised before, and ensure that your edit meets all of Knowledge (XXG)'s 187: 63: 374:. It should be rewritten and the information broadened to reflect something more than this mediocre writing. This page is also poorly referenced and a bit biased in some comments about racism etc. 348:
