Then I´ll do it. If there´s any problem, just go back to the previous design and everything will be fine.

Changing the design

In my opinion, we should do some big changes to improve this page, including:

- remove the pictures (and description for those locations with its own page) from locations. These images make this page unnecessarily huge and almost never ending. The links are enough.

- Separate all the locations in 3 groups: Places of interest (Head museum, Public Library, Monument Beach, ...) Public services (Taco Bellevue Hospital, NNY Police Department, ...) and Private services (7¹¹, Rook Takes Pawnshop, Alien Overlord & Taylor, Jack's Fine Smokables, ...)

What do you think?

I would call it Private Sector, but I certainly would like to see a new version of this article. --SvipTalk 14:11, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

Buddy13 FW16.png Not sure where I can get a good shot of NNY. I could get an easy shot from SP3K, but I was hoping for a nice, wide, overhead shot. Anyone know an episode where I can get a shot like that? Or at least a good shot that displays some of NNY's overall look?

Whotmsig.jpg[Whaler on the Moon] What about the one in "A Fishful of dollars" when the crew goes to Alien Overlord & Tailor? You get to see the skyline and Madison Cube Garden... that ought to be good. Incidently, Alien Overlord & Tailor should be included as well...

POIs

User:Gopher/sigDoes every store or place in New New York really need it's own page? It'll make a lot of pages, but they'll mostly be very, very short (<200 words). Instead I suggest we format that section like other picture-lists (The Waterfalls, Minor Characters), with a list of just links to POIs with pages, then a table of minor POIs and basic info (Name, Appearances, Description)

You make a good point. Obviously big things like Mom's Robot Company, Planet Express and possibly a few others will retain their own pages. Things like Rook Takes Pawnshop shouldn't really get thier own page. - Quolnok 03:48, 19 July 2006 (PDT)

Then I have to disagree. As a hardcore futurama fan, I love every single shop, bank, restaurant, ... enough to give them their own page. What´s wrong with that? With the present system the New new York page is unnecessarily huge and the secondary places have only their first appereance (and not all of them). And why Rook Takes Pawnshop should´t deserve its own page? It appears not only in various episodes from the tv series, but even in the videogame! What we should do is put the links in the New new York page to those places´s pages. - Cornik 07:52, 25 september 2008 (PDT)

You are responding to a discussion that is over 2 years old. Regardless, we have changed our stance on the matter, and basically regardless of trivial it is, if it is Futurama related, it's worthy of an article of its own. Only reason it hasn't been done? Laziness. --SvipTalk 18:10, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

Really? hehe...hehehe....muahahahaha. No, I mean, Great! It´s time for some changes ans lots of additions (I can´t believe that places like Central Bureaucracy, Big Aple banks or Ray´s Superior Court aren´t even in this wiki)Cornik. 20:00, 25 September 2008

The Central Bureaucracy actually has an article. The other twos don't, though. --SvipTalk 20:11, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

Musuem of ancient weaponary

Isn't this place in Washington DC not New New York -Humerbot 0.4 07:55, 6 February 2007 (PST)

Erm, you may have a point there. I just grabbed several screens but didn't rewatch the episodes. - Quolnok 01:39, 7 February 2007 (PST)
The crew are in Washington for most of the story unless they brought the missile all the way from New New York - Humerbot 0.4 08:36, 7 February 2007 (PST)
Moved across. - Quolnok 02:06, 8 February 2007 (PST)

Deathball Arena?

Wouldn't the Deathball Arena caount as a New New York Location of Interest? Chris of the Futurama 17:24, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Since it is not Madison Cube Garden, I'd say so. But perhaps we need a section for Entertainment. Where stuff like Madison Cube Garden and Metropolitan House of Opera could be. --SvipTalk 18:02, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
