I question the need for this article, which contains not much more than can be place in the Evans, NY article. Stepp-Wulf 01:00, 6 October 2006 (UTC).[reply]

Hundreds of NYS Hamlets have articles. Most are about this long. IMHO, (and as I am the creator of the article you should take it with a grain of salt) if someone can get a piece of mail from "Derby, NY", they should be able to look up in an encyclopedia where exactly that is. --CastAStone|^(talk) 03:28, 6 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I grew up in Derby, NY, so I felt compelled to add at least a mention of our Frank Lloyd Wright house. We also have a Kazoo factory, several Lake side parks and a famous strip of Beach bars in the Town of Evans, if you are interested in that kind of thing.

I lived in Derby for close to 30 years. The kazoo factory is in Eden. As far as lakeside parks - Sturgeon Pt & I 'think' that Wendt Beach is considered still in Derby. The bars, yes, they are in Angola - Angola-on-the-Lake if you want to get technical, within the town of Evans. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Islechik (talk • contribs) 07:13, 22 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• This article has become little more than a list of commercial establishments. I question once again the need for this article. Stepp-Wulf (talk) 03:52, 10 February 2009 (UTC).[reply]
