Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia! I noticed that you recently added commentary to an article, World Trade Center. While Wikipedia welcomes editors' opinions on an article and how it could be changed, these comments are more appropriate for the article's accompanying talk page. If you post your comments there, other editors working on the same article will notice and respond to them, and your comments will not disrupt the flow of the article. However, keep in mind that even on the talk page of an article, you should limit your discussion to improving the article. Article talk pages are not the place to discuss opinions of the subject of articles, nor are such pages a forum. Thank you. Acroterion (talk) 14:54, 3 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

That said, I've removed the reference to concrete cores, as the sources cited are not of very high quality and appear to have been written by laymen or on hearsay. It also contradicts my understanding of the structure, that there was no substantial concrete core structure. I would expect an appropriate reference to be the NIST report or some similar high-quality technical reference rather than Newsweek or a general discussion of skyscrapers: thanks for pointing that out.
