"Blogs" of course is a very general term, and their inclusion as

WP:RS is sometimes open to question. That said, these look to be very high quality, and I'd think they are RS. The only thing I'll ask is that folks be very careful to distinguish between Historic Strawberry Mansion (the house) and this article, the neighborhood.

The blog entries are published by the Multimedia Urban Reporting Lab of Temple University, so I think they are RS.

Now, is "Historic Strawberry Mansion" in Strawberry Mansion the neighborhood? If so, the blogs about the mansion could help with both the "Strawberry Mansion" and "Historic Strawberry Mansion" articles, but further detail goes to "Historic Strawberry Mansion" WhisperToMe (talk) 17:14, 14 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
