this is not buttonwoods at all..its all of old buttonwoods so correct that.

See Buttonwoods, a more comprehensive treatment of the area. It describes original maps located in the archives of the Rhode Island Historical Society and City of Warwick land records. Historically speaking, "Old Buttonwoods" is actually another area to the west of this historic district. In recent times, people moving into this historic district and real estate agents have labeled this historic district Olde Buttonwoods. But, the state highway maps show Old Buttonwoods in its correct location on Andrew Comstock Road. This is where the Old Buttonwoods Post Office was located in a neighborhood convenience store and candy shop until it was closed in the 1970s. This stub should remain as is.

Association and Fire District sections

[edit]

These sections are troubling because in their current form they do not read like encyclopedic content. They read like someone's personal analysis of some ongoing local dispute. This is especially odd because they purport to be descriptions of charters, yet there's no reference to any actual charter. Rlangseth seems to have written almost all of this content, so I have to ask whether this is your own analysis or there are reliable secondary sources (or primary sources if we must) from which you've simply paraphrased. If there are sources, we definitely need to cite them in the article. -- Fyrael (talk) 15:59, 28 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
