Removing "4 Infinite Loop Evacuation" Section

This section has been sitting uncited for more than six months. A cursory search provided no mention of this incident outside of this page. I'm not sure it's really relevant to an encyclopedia article even if a source is found, but here's what I removed:

"4 Infinite Loop Evacuation

On Wednesday, May 6, 2009 an envelope containing white powder of unknown nature was found in the cafeteria of the building IL4 by an Apple employee. The building was subsequently evacuated. The Fire Department of Santa Clara County arrived at the scene at 3:30 pm, wearing hazmat suits. Preliminary tests showed that dust did not represent a threat, and the substance was taken to a laboratory for further analysis.[citation needed]" 98.234.80.57 (talk) 18:58, 28 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Figure request

I feel this article lacks a good figure that shows how far away the two campuses are, and how large they are compared to each other. I would make it myself, but I wouldn't know where to start with making a map figure... EditorInTheRye (talk) 18:59, 20 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Challenging inappropriate page move by User:InvadingInvader

I just noticed that User:InvadingInvader moved this article from Apple Campus to Apple Infinite Loop without warning. That was highly inappropriate and amounts to disruptive editing. Moving articles on prominent subjects from longstanding titles should always be discussed on the talk page first and analyzed in light of relevant Wikipedia policies and guidelines. (I always do.)

The campus is signed as "Apple Campus" and is widely known around the world by that name. Apple itself calls it Apple Campus. Infinite Loop is merely the drive that goes around the buildings on the campus. "Apple Infinite Loop" is the name of the Apple Store on Infinite Loop at Apple Campus. Obviously, User:InvadingInvader hasn't spent enough time in Silicon Valley. (Guess who shot that aerial photo.)

I am way too busy right now with my legal work to clean up this mess. But at some point I will have to raise this on the admins' noticeboard so someone can deal with this. Coolcaesar (talk) 16:30, 20 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

See WP:Be bold. And maybe tone it down on wording directed towards me which seems like WP:OWN. A disagreement on a page title is not an incentive to call the initial action a disruptive edit. I read on your userpage and guessed from your comments that you are an attorney, and while we absolutely appreciate your expertise on Wikipedia, we're meant on this project to work collaboratively and to assume good faith rather than assuming bad faith and calling everything that you do not agree with a disruptive edit; bludgeoning debates by focusing too much on user conduct harms the project as a whole.

Proposing move back to longstanding and correct title

Requested move 20 April 2023

Apple Infinite LoopApple Campus – This article has been titled "Apple Campus" for many years until User:InvadingInvader moved it yesterday without any warning. This article should be moved back to the correct title to preserve the status quo until User:InvadingInvader can establish consensus on the talk page in favor of a move to a different title. As I have already pointed out on the talk page, "Apple Infinite Loop" is inappropriate because that's actually the name of the Apple Store at Apple Campus.

Oppose but open to alternative options. Apple Campus is necessary to have disambiguators for Apple Campus 3 and Apple Park, the former of which was known as Apple Campus 2. Since there are multiple Apple campuses, using the original title is too ambiguous, though I would be open to alternative disambiguating proposals such as maybe Apple Campus (Infinite Loop) InvadingInvader (userpage, talk) 18:38, 20 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Comment "Apple Campus" is still part of the actual name (just read the sign in the article photo), but I agree that "campus" is also a bit ambiguous, since it's also a descriptive term for a collection of buildings used by the same orgnaisation (which fits all 3). I'd support Apple Campus, Infinite Loop, or Apple Campus (Infinite Loop). EditorInTheRye (talk) 21:08, 20 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. In response to a recent undiscussed move (WP:RMUM), you can summarily reverse the move. At that point, people can make a new request to move the page — after discussion and consensus. I suggest withdrawing this request and returning the page. SilverLocust (talk) 04:03, 21 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nom may or may not know that WP:RMT exists. I've requested the reversions there. Let's see what a page mover says. Rotideypoc41352 (talk · contribs) 09:25, 21 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
