Arnwine Cabin[edit]

I've reverted the changes to the Arnwine Cabin because the "Location" header is generally supposed to be a street address, and more specifically "At" is not part of the listing name. Of course, there's nothing wrong with piping links or making comments in the "Summary" line, but only the official name should appear in the "Landmark name" column.

What additional NRHP listings are in Anderson County?[edit]

Orlady added note "See Roane County for additional properties in Oak Ridge and Oliver Springs, which span the county line." Umm, whatever is partially in Anderson County should be listed in Anderson County, too. It can be noted in the location or description columns that a property is also or "primarily" in another county, but if it is in this county it should be listed here, and a duplications note should be added to the statewide List of RHPs in TN. doncram (talk) 05:50, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

In the sentence you cite, the pronoun antecedent for "which" is "Oak Ridge and Oliver Springs," not "properties." The cities span the county line. With cities that span county lines, it can be complicated for people unfamiliar with the geography to find National Register sites in county-specific lists. For example, people often are surprised to discover that Oak Ridge is not entirely in Anderson County. If such people view the list of properties on this list, without a note about the other county they are apt to conclude (wrongly) that the list includes all National Register historic properties in the city. The old state listing had cross-references to the other counties in which a particular city's properties were listed, but that information was lost when the state list was divided by county. The situation with Oliver Springs is very confusing, as this city is in 3 counties and on the ground it is not at all clear where the county line is. --Orlady (talk) 02:07, 20 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
