Thanks for your speedy reply. Thanks also for the pointer to the edit summary; I missed that before.

Having said that, I'm not sure I understand the objection. My note is based on the on-screen location of a red dot on the map in the episode "Failsafe". Is the problem that I'm calling the landmass north of the red dot "Greenland" but we don't know if that's the Earth-16 name? If so, how do we know that Gotham City is located in Connecticut (as this Wiki says)? In the episode "Schooled" (which is cited on the Wiki page for Gotham City), we see Gotham as a dot on a map of the United States eastern seaboard in a state that is the same shape as Connecticut in our world, but to the best of my recollection, the state is never actually named in the episode "Schooled".

I hope I don't sound like I'm trying to be difficult; I'm just trying to understand why one is acceptable, and the other is out-of-universe speculation.

Thank you.
