NRHP reference

edit

I tried adding NRHP document reference to the article, but it is not now working for me.[1]

References

  1. ^ ____ (, 19). "National Register of Historic Places Inventory-Nomination: Silvermine Center Historic District" (PDF). National Park Service. {{cite web}}: |author= has numeric name (help); Check date values in: |date= (help) and Accompanying ____ photos, exterior and interior, from 19___

Also the National Park Service's "NPS Focus" website search screen is not working right now. Anyhow, the NRHP document is needed, and it is available at least by request to the National Register. doncram (talk) 01:33, 18 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

Separate NRHP HD article or not

edit

A bunch of editors have been debating (elsewhere, as well as at Talk:Silvermine, Connecticut) when and where it is helpful to have separate articles on NRHP HDs, like about "Silvermine Center Historic District", vs. when it is best to include the NRHP info in an article about a village/hamlet/neighborhood like the "Silvermine, Connecticut" article.

Some of the editors (me included) agree that for Silvermine and Silvermine Center we currently want a merged article. But if there is someone who wants to make a decent separate article, that would be okay too. We just ask, please don't split out a separate NRHP HD article unless a) you have created or are actively developing a DYK-equivalent length starter article using substantial information, and b) you judge in good faith that it is beneficial to have the NRHP HD be a separate article.

Note, for all CT NRHPs, a good source is available, the NRHP nomination document, provided free of charge upon email request to nr_reference (at) nps.gov. And, in December 2010, the National Register has just made available online copies of almost all of the NRHP documents for CT: see search screen here. However the Silvermine Center HD document is not currently available on-line.

Currently, "Silvermine Center Historic District" is set to redirect to "Silvermine, Connecticut". (Equivalent notice placed at Talk:Silvermine, Connecticut.) --doncram (talk) 14:49, 22 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
