Talk:Rosie the Riveter World War II Home Front National Historical Park

message: On the Rosie the Riveter page, the J. Howard Miller poster states "J. Howard Miller's "We Can Do It!", commonly mistaken to be Rosie the Riveter" yet on this page for the historical park, the caption for the same image directly contradicts that. Which is true? -- Anon  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.226.51.173 (talk) 16:32, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Mistaken Poster

message: It looks like this article was renamed to remove the slash without any discussion or sourcing.  A similar name tweak, also by  on Chesapeake and Ohio Canal National Historical Park just got reverted by ; I'm not sure exactly how to revert name changes cleanly, so I'll just leave a note here.  I do note that the legislation to create the park includes the slash (see https://www.congress.gov/bill/106th-congress/house-bill/4063/text ) and that the current NPS website, while it expresses the name in multiple ways, does include the slash in multiple instances on the web pages reachable from https://www.nps.gov/rori/index.htm JohnMarkOckerbloom (talk) 15:20, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Your point is well taken. I was being bold in trying to tie to official names, but did not consider that the underlying legislation would be different. I am happy to move it back if that is the consensus. I guess this raises the question of whether to adhere to the official name per Congress or the more common name per NPS. But the fact that NPS uses the backslash intermittently suggests its omission is just an abbreviation of sorts. Mdewman6 (talk) 17:39, 22 August 2020 (UTC)

message: I'm planning to expand and edit this article as part of an assignment for a class on Building Successful Online Communities. 
The current article doesn't contain much on the topography of the areas, and recreational opportunities on the grounds of this park, which I think are the reasons most people visit them. 
There's also historically significant information not included in the articles. 
Happy to have feedback and guidance on these edits, as I'm relatively new to wikipedia and this kind of page in particular. Alexstonehill (talk) 21:41, 15 April 2021 (UTC)

replies: text: Very nice work, thank you! Please put references after punction (MOS:CITEPUNCT). Also citation 7 links to the generic homepage of the park, and it would be much more beneficial if these several sentences were referenced to a specific page on it. The templates at the bottom were duplicated. There's also a discrepancy between the 2,141 acres you added and the 2,072 acres in the infobox, so can you find the most recent source for it? The rest of your content is great. Reywas92Talk 23:32, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

replies: text: Thanks for the updates. Citation 1 is dead, try  instead. Still not sure where 2,141 acres came from, it's in the index too at 2,146. It's ref 11 now that should link to more specific articles on the NPS site. Reywas92Talk 06:54, 14 May 2021 (UTC)

text: The 2141 acres is in the basic info section on the NPS site, (what is now Citation 11). I'm struggling with getting the citations into the info box, but that should be the reference for the acreage in the info box as well. Also citations 1 and 4 are the same, but again, the info box citation system is flummoxing me. Thanks for your help! Alexstonehill (talk) 16:48, 14 May 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Saratoga National Historical Park

message: Just for the record, I removed the line: 
the Battles of Saratoga rank among the fifteen most decisive battles in world history.
This statement comes from the inclusion of the Battle of Saratoga in the book Fifteen Decisive Battles of the World: From Marathon to Waterloo by Edward S. Creasy. Therefore, it is really just the opinion of Creasy that the battle was one of the fifteen most decisive. Although there is no doubt it was an important battle, I didn't think the line seemed to belong in this article. --Nebular110 22:49, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Carl Sandburg Home National Historic Site

message: I live close to the Carl Sandburg NHS and enjoy visiting it often.
Hence, I have added a few sentences to the Wikipedia page. I have no affiliation with it.
In transparency, I am a fan of poetry. 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Sandburg
Last week, I added a sentence about the recent writers who have been involved in the Writer-in-Residence program. I included citations to secondary and primary sources to document it was verifiable, mostly news articles.
Another editor feels that these writers are not part of the scope of this National Historic Site. This editor flagged the sentence as being non-verifiable although I included 1-2 citations to secondary sources for each writer. 
In the cases of some National Historic Site, I could see this argument. But the Carl Sandburg home is the home of a writer and poet; therefore, a core part of its mission in partnership with the Friends of Connemara is to celebrate writing. In addition, many Wikipedia pages contain lists of names of writers or award recipients.

Talk:Fort Scott National Historic Site

message: The article includes the sentence (emphasis added):
It was hope it would place the Cherokee and provide some defense against the rampaging Osages
This makes no sense. Clearly "hope" should be "hoped". Also, in context, I'm guessing that instead of place the article meant placate, but I don't have any knowledge of the situation and thus don't feel comfortable changing it.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.30.251.99 (talk) 00:39, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Fort Smith National Historic Site

message: Park rangers confirm that no lands of this NHS are on the opposite bank of the river in Oklahoma. There was a proposal to include part of the riverbank on the Oklahoma side, but no land was acquired. Anticipating the addition, maps were created showing those portions as part of the park. Current maps have corrected that, showing only Arkansas lands. See http://www.nps.gov/fosm, then click "View Park Map". Interestingly, Google Maps shows the state line cutting into the east bank of the Arkansas River within the NHS, suggesting Oklahoma lands are part of it. The NPS map clearly puts the state line in the river, and the Arkansas Department of Transportation map of Fort Smith concurs with the NPS map. The state line is fully in both the Arkansas and Poteau Rivers. See http://www.arkansashighways.com/maps/cities/fortsmith_barling_city.pdf. Google Maps also shows the state line cutting across the west bank of the Poteau River, another error outside of the NHS boundaries. I'll send 'em a note!
