 ==World Financial Capital== 
 Hi Dave, I let your rather overreaching edit and edit summaries in the NYC article go for now to avoid an argument or confrontation. But I think you just ""threw the baby out with the bath water"" here, as the expression goes, and I think this should be addressed.  
 1) First, just housekeeping - removing cites just because they included copyright tags simply doesn't make sense. Pertinent refs should be restored, without those tags if you don't like them. 
 2) More importantly, however, there really was no consensus at that Rfc. In fact, I thought I recall at least one or two other editors indicating they agreed New York was definitely number one. But that aside, I don't think it's inaccurate at all to say that New York ""has been termed"" (or alternatively ""called"", or ""described as"", or ""referred to as"") the world's leading ""financial center"" (if the Rfc is supposedly saying don't use the term ""financial capital""); and of course, citing it properly. I believe your most recent edit does not do justice to reality, when the original statement actually had well-cited support.  
 Best,
