I noticed this article in the DYK nomination pipeline. It was marked in the NRHP infobox as being a U.S. National Historic Landmark, which I removed because it is not one. I also cannot find verification that it is even listed on the National Register of Historic Places at all. I am wondering, is the use of the NRHP infobox just copied from another article? Perhaps a different, generic infobox is needed. Perhaps I could help fix it up, but please respond if there is really meant to be an assertion that this site is listed on the NRHP or not. NRHPs, especially those that are also NHLs, is what i focus mostly on. doncram (talk) 05:45, 25 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
Okay, it is not an NHL but it is listed on the National Register. I added National Registration Information System (NRIS) source to the article, took out inferior Archiplanet source, and added info to the NRHP infobox, including the street address, and geocode info that comes from NRIS.
I added "also known as Congregation B'nai B'rith" to the text, because it is the NRHP program name for the site and needs to appear in the NRHP infobox, to conform to NRHP infobox practice. If that is no longer a current name for the Temple, please modify the text to "formerly known as Congregation B'nai B'rith" perhaps. However the NRHP program name should stay in the infobox. doncram (talk) 06:12, 25 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
