Talk:History of Lincoln, Nebraska

Article creation

Since expansion of the history section overwhelmed the article Lincoln, Nebraska, the history section was moved to create the article History of Lincoln, Nebraska. The former history section was summarized in the article Lincoln, Nebraska. The article Timeline of Lincoln, Nebraska history was also created. Historical events in the article Lincoln, Nebraska are to be summaries of major events making Lincoln - Lincoln. Historical events can be expanded and included in the article History of Lincoln, Nebraska. Historical events may also be added to the article Timeline of Lincoln, Nebraska history in short summary statements. Feel free to expand the article History of Lincoln, Nebraska and add notable historical events to the Timeline of Lincoln, Nebraska. See Talk:Lincoln, Nebraska for discussion on expanding the history of Lincoln. Cheers Gmcbjames (talk) 20:00, 10 June 2015 (UTC)
