Semi-protected edit request on 30 September 2016
[edit]This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request. |
The chronology of the history section is wacky. The fourth paragraph of the history section references southern black families arriving to Compton in the 1950s. Then the fifth paragraph mainly focuses on the 1920s, 30s, and mentions black residents moving to the area in the 1940s. But then in the sixth paragraph, it again states that black families first started arriving in the 1950s and 60s after the Shelley v. Kraemer verdict.
One solution may be to simply move the fourth paragraph to come after what is currently the sixth paragraph... so that first the 1920s, 30s, and 40s are discussed and then the Shelley v. Kraemer verdict's impact on the 1950s and 1960s is discussed and then finally the move of black southern families to the area in the 1950s is mentioned.

- Not done Please format your request as "change paragraph or sentence X to Y", with X being the exact copy you want changed and Y being your proposed change. Support this with sources. If you want to start a discussion on a part of the article, start a new section and don't make it an edit request. Thanks. John from Idegon (talk) 20:42, 30 September 2016 (UTC)
