Talk:Washington County, Pennsylvania

message: I'm a little amazed that neither this page nor the Washington, Pennsylvania page has a "History" section, considering how much went on here between the 1780s and the 1840s. The National Road? The Whiskey Rebellion? C'mon, people! Okay, I'll have to find time, even though I don't live here. :-) --Michael K. Smith 12:21, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I encourage you to just go for it and start writing. I have written extensively about Lycoming County. When I started I was pretty new to it too. Like I said just go for it and I'll be glad to help! Dincher (talk) 21:10, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Ditto - it is very useful if your contributions are based on reliable sources (history books, some history websites). I would also be glad to help, Ruhrfisch  ><>°° 22:10, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

While this is interesting, we can't use it unless you provide a source. Also, none of this is really trivia, as trivia by its definition is "unimportant information" - it therefore shouldn't be in a trivia section but instead the information should be incorporated into the main article. - Tbsdy lives (formerly Ta bu shi da yu) talk 05:09, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
