1103:. As anyone can see, every one of these articles is a very short stub. Also, they have no unique information other than where in town the house is and the type of architecture. Every single one of these articles even includes the exact same two sentences: "The town has 60 buildings listed on the National Registry. Uxbridge has over 250 buildings listed on the State's historic register." The majority has the same two external links. Rather than having so many useless stubs, it would be much easier to merge them all to the main list. It would be rather simple, as it would only need to move the address and relevant link. The articles can then become redirects. I really do not believe that every one of these places is independently notable and deserves its own article, so I kindly ask you to merge them together. I can do some of the work if you like. Thanks, 1602:(!)). Thanks for all the work, you're doing unbelievable job. I hope you will continue on other articles once you're done with this one. The only thing about the article that I didn't think was a good practice is that it's written as bullet list. Generally speaking, articles on Knowledge should be written in paragraphs so they can be read as a coherent and continuous text. The article is very hard to read this way – as a list of facts that don't really construct history. This isn't major objection just a feedback on what you might want to consider while editing Knowledge. I don't want to discourage you in any way from continuing your work, should you require any help please feel free to ask. Once more thank you!-- 1284:

outlined below. Following these will not take any more of your time, but will save time for others like me who have been cleaning up after you. For example, not putting repeated links in an article to the same article will save you time -- one link is enough, unless it's a really long article, then you might put in a couple. Not linking an article to itself and not linking date fragments will save you time. No writing long stretches of stuff in genealogical shorthand that are not appropriate for an encyclopedia article will save you time. (If you are just copying these, then they are likely copyright violations and therefore have to be removed anyway.) Not using title case in headings won't take you any longer.

fiction - there are lots of books set around your territory. I hope it is mostly fiction! Yes, I think the internet is a great invention, at least it has become so - I like they way it retains it's own sense of anarchy and wikipedia gives me somewhere to go to do something constructive. There is no need to thank me, I am happy to help with this article. It is interesting and you certainly have enough information to build this page. I hope my help gives you some clues on how to do the formatting for other pages. There are templates for citing references which make it relatively easy (

We need to be able to agree on it. Also I find there is a fifference of spelling of "Bazaleel" vs. "Bezaleel" Taft, Jr. We need to decide on the preferred one and use that in article titles, etc., with just a comment on its other spelling. It's perfectly OK to have an article on the person and another one on his house that's listed on the National Register. The house article is concerned with things like architecture, present use, etc., that are different from the biographical article. Best wishes

had done a picture book of history and slides from the internet for my mother last Christmas. Now I think it is pretty much done with your help. It is a reasonable product and reasonably well documented. I did learn about about references now for next time. Kind of like writing old computer programs with commands. One slip up and you mess up the whole think. Thanks for your guidance and support. Hope you can help on the other two wiki's I mentioned. kevin ksherin 7:54PM EST 9/28/07

hardship for the American revolutionary war soldiers. He is locally recognized as a colonial folk hero in the border towns of the two states of Massachusetts and Rhode Island with a local Fife and drum corps named in his honor. THere are now four references as links to the article. Paid references could be added to strengthen the article but I don't think I would spend the money if you plan to delete this. He is basically a colonial figure of the revolutionary war period.

Knowledge, it is expected that you will pay more attention to Knowledge policies and style. You will notice that I initially cleaned up your mistakes without comment, hoping that you would follow my lead. When you continued making the same mistakes, I asked you to pay attention to Knowledge style. As you continued in the same vein, I have been successively more blunt in order to get your attention.

Knowledge cause rather than to mess it up worse. No problem with your edit suggestion about bullets. Its done, not too much work. Probably not the best grammer and syntax, but I am no pro. The bullets helped me to organize what was important to retain from a a very long winded article which is now down from over 10 pages of text to around 6. Thanks.

educational tool. The kids today are lucky to have it for research and education. You have truly helped improve what was there for Uxbridge. I grew up there and never knew most of that history. Maybe the young folks there today can learn more about it and appreciate it. Thanks again, Stellar(Meredyth). 8:53 EST; 9/28/07

Thank you again for your interest in Uxbridge topics. Coronet John Farnum, Jr., House should be focused on the house. You should keep the separate article on the man. That should be focused on him. Obviously the two are interrelated, but they are not the same and should link to each other and have

You might want to check WP:REF for advice on reference formatting - once you understand it it's a lot easier than doing it all by hand, and your references so far don't fit style guidelines.

Understand the confusion. Written texts tend to spell the name Bezaleel, and local material tends to spell it Bazaleel. Hence it is confusing.

Yeah Meredyth|Stellar. Where have you been? Any help is appeciated. I will quit editing and let you pollish this one up. It only needs a few references, like maybe 3 to 5, and the rest can be footnotes or something. I see acroterion's notes about external links, so they should be few in number.
