My God: this page needs some SERIOUS work! How is it that about 1/3 of the history of Eagle Rock, which at one point was an independent city before being annexed by Los Angeles (in the 1920's, I think) is taken up by descriptions of two serial killers? (the previous unsigned comment was left by on 08:29, 21 August 2006 Blintz )
Look gang, I'm fed up with seeing "upper class" "middle class" "upper middle class" wars on this page. Leave it at "upper middle class" for now, unless you can SOURCE your information. If I see one more edit on class, I will be removing the line for being WP:OR. You have been warned. Timmccloud 00:52, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
I am coming in and the tail-end of this silly argument, and may I just say, that anyone who has lived in and around Eagle Rock for the last 49 years (like I have), would know that while it has a good sized "upper-middle class", it is far out-numbered by working class families....soooo, I have I recently edited it as , "working class AND upper middle class", THAT should satisfy the boo-birds. And I agree with the fellow about the silly absurd serial killer inclusions. I also added some historcal info, corrections( all of sudden a few yuppies move in and its the center of the "hipster" universe??? PUHLEEZE!!!, Eagle Rock has been harboring the counter culture since the 20s for chrissakes!!!) and other bits here and there. Hey, Eagle Rock deserves better. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Garagehero ( talk • contribs).
There is a swath of cool communites , all the way from East Hollywood through Silverlake, Los Feliz, Echo Park, Atwater, snaking up through Eagle Rock, Highland Park ,South Pasadena and ending up in Pasadena, all connected. They have some good Wikpages, Echo Park, Silverlake etc., and they are similar communites.There is a real renaissance going on here, buddy boy. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Garagehero ( talk • contribs).
Well gang, it looks like the Harry Lauder descendants are now using an IPSock to further their vanity agenda again; Special:Contributions/81.152.59.196. It was stated in the edit log once before, let me be perfectly clear here: If the "notable resident" doesn't deserve a wikipedia page on their own right, then they are not notable enough for wikipeda references. Being notable within a specific community is *NOT* notable from an encyclopedic standpoint. Matthew Lauder, and Matt Jr are just people with a famous relative; that does not make them worth an encyclopedia entry on their own right. Please remove the vanity - if you don't there will be other people that will. Timmccloud ( talk) 15:07, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
Would anyone like to comment why the entry on Gang activity in the history keeps getting removed? Is this some Real Estate agent trying to sell houses in ER, or some gang member displeased with the bad publicity? Timmccloud ( talk) 21:17, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
The flagship photo is very nice, with the rock on one side and the full moon on the other, but can't we get something from a slightly less smoggy day? And yes, I know that's normal but still - I'd like something better to represent Eagle Rock as the first photo... Timmccloud ( talk) 00:30, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
Describing two incidents of murder in a general section on the history is inappropriate and irrelevant. Oxy-Librarian ( talk) 03:48, 2 November 2012 (UTC)
Copied from the GeorgeLouis talk page: A few things about your edits from someone with extensive knowledge of the area. Just because there is no source on a persons page for where they reside is not carte blanche reason to removed someone from a locality page. Many of the residents you removed are sourced from school yearbooks and other good sources that are not necessarily on their personal page, nor happen to be in an electronic form (which is NOT required for Wikipedia). As for the movie industry, many of the films referenced have specific credits at the end of the movies mentioning eagle rock, and any community within a hour of Hollywood has extensive history in the community which is part of their story. Everything you removed was valid, encyclopedic content, with very poor justification. If you want to continue improving the page, I look forward to working with you, but please discuss your edits on the talk page were consensus can be reached instead of wholesale deletions. Your good faith edits have been Reverted until appropriate discussion of your changes reaches consensus. Timmccloud ( talk) 12:57, 7 May 2013 (UTC)

When you added "moved to a temporary location in Downtown Los Angeles until 1898 when it" to the Eagle Rock, Los Angeles article, did you check it against the source for that paragraph? I tried and it was a dead link. Do you have access to it, so you can correct the link? If you didn't take your information from that source, can you just tell us where you got it from? Thanks?

Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just attempted to maintain the sources on Eagle Rock, Los Angeles. I managed to add archive links to 1 source, out of the total 1 I modified, whiling tagging 0 as dead.
Please take a moment to review my changes to verify that the change is accurate and correct. If it isn't, please modify it accordingly and if necessary tag that source with {{
cbignore}}
to keep Cyberbot from modifying it any further. Alternatively, you can also add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}}
to keep me off the page's sources altogether. Let other users know that you have reviewed my edit by leaving a comment on this post.

What is wrong with Wikipedians (besides myself)?
I did not write the popular culture bit about the fictional character Cole Trickle being mentioned as "from Eagle Rock" in the article. I did add a source, which has been repeatedly deleted before the actual language was finally removed just because I supposedly provided an "unreliable source".
The page itself asked for sources - so when I provide one it is not allowed? What is up with that?
As for the source being "unreliable" - it accurately transcripts the relevant line within the movie. How in the heck can a site that is telling the truth be unreliable? 47.137.189.144 ( talk) 04:09, 23 December 2016 (UTC)
