Highway pollution edit[edit]

A recent edit suggested adding language discussing the proximity of the Tiny Homes Detroit project to highways, and how that's bad for health. However, the original language included an uncited quote by a living person, original research, and uncited assumptions about the project.

To update this proposed edit in order to make it suitable for Wikipedia, we must:

- Add a citation for the quote by Faith Fowler and make it clear why it's a relevant quote. Most quotes don't belong on Wikipedia, as it's usually best to rewrite the statement from a neutral point of view.

- Add a citation for the Tiny Homes project receiving criticism due to its location near highways. References that explain why highway pollution is bad for health are not acceptable here. The question is not whether highway pollution is bad for health, but rather whether there is criticism of the Tiny Homes Detroit project specifically in terms of its location. Calling the location of the project bad for health because of highway pollution without an existing source for this criticism is original research, which is not allowed on Wikipedia.
