==Illegal Aliens== | |||
There seems to be a case of misunderstanding in the trivia section. Illegal aliens is a legal term for illegal immigrants, an alien legally meaning foreigner and not an extra terrestrials. I think that this should be mentioned in the artical to prevent further confusion. I would do it myself now but some people get really arsy about that sort of thing.

I know a lot of people like to use infoboxes for everything, but I'm beginning to see them used on a few too many pages. I use them where they replace a large amount of text that is easier displayed in a table - such as numeric data, and large collections of important facts. | I know a lot of people like to use infoboxes for everything, but I'm beginning to see them used on a few too many pages.

There is no specific policy on use of infoboxes, so what do you think?

:I can understand your reasoning, but I actually like the idea of infoboxes for pages. | :I can understand your reasoning, but I actually like the idea of infoboxes for pages. It allows for a consistency, so that (if we establish consistent use of infoboxes across similar pages) all character pages would be immediately identified as characters, all businesses could immediately be identified as businesses, etc. It shouldn't be monotonous, but, for example, the number of doors should be in exactly the same place on all pages, no matter which vehicle or game. Don't get me wrong, we still need the sentence-form description, and I actually don't think the infobox should ''replace'' any information at all (at least on the types of pages I'm thinking about), only organize some of it so that it's in a uniform location on the pages across the wiki. Just my initial thoughts. --[[:w:c:gta:User:GuildKnight|GuildKnight]]<sup>[[:w:c:gta:User_talk:GuildKnight|Talk2me]]</sup> 04:40, 23 August 2008 (UTC) | ||

:What about 'Self-proclaimed center of everything' | |||
In the first mission in GTA 4 hossan says "It's The Land Of Opporunity" about liberty city, so it should be the land of opporunity.[[User:Grandtheftautodude|Grandtheftautodude]] 09:07, October 26, 2009 (UTC) | |||
It's what Biggest gta fan ever said: it's just the USA in general... Also any place that gives you "new hope" can be called "the Land of Opportunity" really.--[[User:Thescarydude|Thescarydude]] 19:34, October 26, 2009 (UTC) | |||

== GTA 3 version == | |||
has anyone noticed that [[Algonquin]] looks a lot like the beta [[staunton island]] road layout? [[User:Grandtheftautodude|Grandtheftautodude]] 06:21, October 23, 2009 (UTC) | |||
:THey are both based off the same part of the same city - so they're supposed to look similar. What do you mean by the 'beta' layout? They wouldn't change the layout after making it, that's all decided beforehand. [[User:Gboyers|Gboyers]] <sup>[[User_talk:Gboyers|talk]]</sup> 10:37, October 23, 2009 (UTC) | |||
i mean that francis int airport was on staunton island before they changed it see http://gouranga.com/images/gta3/gta3_artwork_01.jpg | |||
I think the airport makes it less like Algonquin, it doesn't have an airport.... Besides that the road layout doesn't follow a grid-like design.--[[User:Thescarydude|Thescarydude]] 12:09, October 24, 2009 (UTC)--[[User:Thescarydude|Thescarydude]] 12:09, October 24, 2009 (UTC) | |||
== Quote == | |||
Can someone find the original source of the quote? The sites I find are user reviews who credited the quote to Rockstar. I need a more legitimate source.-- | |||

==Alderney== | |||
If Alderny is not part of Liberty City then we dhould take it off of this article [[User:T-888|T-888]] 14:00, April 7, 2010 (UTC) | |||
:Yeah, I know. I already changed the picture in the infobox back to the one before, which didn't feature Alderney, but someone just changed it back. -- [[User:Master Sima Yi|Master Sima Yi]] 06:45, April 12, 2010 (UTC) | |||
This article should contain Alderney. Even though technically it is separate, this article is about the setting of GTA IV, not just one part of it. [[User:Gboyers|Gboyers]] 13:43, 22 December 2010 (UTC) | |||
== Aliens? Saints Row? == | |||
These sound like BS to me, what kinda Alien looks this that lake? and Freedom City? probably just a coincidence, depends what they say about it [[User:Zachariah Zuan|Zachariah Zuan]] 22:44, August 25, 2010 (UTC) | |||
The radio ad said something along the lines of 'we're gonna beat those beavers from Freedom City'. I personally thought it was a reference, but take it as you will. [[User:MAINEiac4434|MAINEiac4434]] 00:30, August 31, 2010 (UTC) | |||
== GTA III-GTA IV == | |||
Does the GTA IV map of Liberty City replace the one in GTA III? Because the layouts are a lot different, so are the island names and the characters residing in them. Or does each game only feature a part of the city, where the GTA III version is northeast of the GTA IV version, since the airport are in different locations? Because it's almost impossible for a city to undergo such a drastic change in just 7 years, and if Rockstar really wanted to create a "new" city rather than another part of an old one, they would have used a different name. Thoughts? [[User:Silver Infernus|Silver Infernus]] 00:03, August 31, 2010 (UTC) | |||
== Neighborhoods == | |||
I will create the section "Neighborhoods" section. Any discussions for this. [[User:Lee5810|Lee5810]] ([[User talk:Lee5810|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Lee5810|edits]]) 11:13, 7 June 2012 (UTC) | |||
