User:Doncram/NRHP issues notes

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a collection of examples of NRHP list-article formatting issues, collected to inform a possible discussion in an RFC, to address differences of opinion between some editors. Many are examples of what can be called "same name same county", where the exact same NRHP official name applies to more than one place listed in the same NRHP list-article (which are usually one list-article per county).

Previous discussion was archived at User talk:Doncram/Archive 14#(disambiguation displayed in listing names). There were also related comments at User talk:Nyttend/Archive 14#various NRHP list-article formatting issues and User talk:Nyttend/Archive 14#multiple reversions. The "same name same county" issue is currently opened for discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject National Register of Historic Places#same name same county.

Multiple occurences of same-name within Bergen County New Jersey NRHP list-article, including:

(ADD MORE ABOVE) Note there may be more pairings given as examples in the previous discussions (see archive links above).

[edit]
# 09:59, 22 March 2010 (hist | diff) National Register of Historic Places listings in Cheshire County, New Hampshire ‎ (Undo, because the official names don't include the road names, and anyone can see that farms on two different roads are two different farms)  (top) [rollback]
# 09:47, 22 March 2010 (hist | diff) National Register of Historic Places listings in Maricopa County, Arizona ‎ (Undo, because the official names don't include the names of the individuals, and anyone can see from the pictures that these are two different houses) (top) [rollback]
# 09:45, 22 March 2010 (hist | diff) National Register of Historic Places listings in New Haven, Connecticut ‎ (Wrong name) (top) [rollback]
# 09:42, 22 March 2010 (hist | diff) National Register of Historic Places listings in Minnesota ‎ (If we list these two cities, why shouldn't we list every other city?) (top) [rollback] 

Also more that can be turned up by a program going through NRIS looking for same name in same county. In the program it should look for items with current NRHP listing status. I think that is code "LI". As opposed to finding instances where one place was mentioned with status DR and then later listed, or was listed and then later withdrawn, in which cases there is only one place involved. --doncram (talk) 15:41, 30 March 2010 (UTC)
