# Talk:Fostoria Shade and Lamp Company

Hi, I'm interested in reviewing this article for GA, but before I do I wanted to ask; why have you not split this article? Rollinginhisgrave (talk) 01:10, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for your interest and excellent question. I assume you are asking why Consolidated Lamp and Glass Company is not in a separate article. I would not have a problem with moving it to a separate article. I left it in because it was essentially the same factory with a new name while the plant remained in Fostoria, Ohio. I also thought it would make the Fostoria Ohio Glass Association happy to keep the Fostoria part of Consolidated in the article—the Association has been helpful and very nice to me. I have written the following articles about Fostoria glass companies: Mambourg Glass Company, Novelty Glass Company, Fostoria Glass Company, Seneca Glass Company, Nickel Plate Glass Company, and this one—Fostoria Lamp and Shade Company (with a section mostly on the Consolidated Lamp and Glass Company while it was in Fostoria). If you think it would be better to separate Consolidated Lamp and Glass Company, I will do it. TwoScars (talk) 18:10, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
If you think it is better to separate Consolidated Lamp and Glass Company, here is how I would work it. I believe I could get it done in one day. The Section that begins "Consolidated Lamp and Glass Company" would be cut out and used to create a new article (that would be missing some information about the Pennsylvania years). I would add a subsection after "Depression" that would contain only one paragraph with no images—and it would discuss how long the new company remained in Fostoria, where it moved to, and when it became defunct.

I think this sounds like a good layout. I support a split. Rollinginhisgrave (talk) 13:04, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
Will start split. TwoScars (talk) 14:51, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
