Candia, New Hampshire[edit]

This Peer Review is more about small towns in general rather than just this town, I figured i'd use it as an example of what needs to be done in regards to getting any small town to FA Status.

I noticed it while updating Municiple Article Watch on Wikiproject:New Hampshire, and so far, it's head and shoulders above all the other towns that i've looked at for the most part. 4 pictures, all newish(couldn't see all of them today due to the updates), a few external links, the solid foundations of the other town articles with a bit more added, but it's still got a long way to go until reaching FA.

That being said, I think it has a spark that I haven't seen in other small towns, and i'm looking for ideas on how to make a small town into an FA, with this one as the test case. So far, I believe that all the municipal area FAs are all large cities, content length may be a factor holding back small towns, regardless of how good they are.

I have been experimenting in small town articles, too. My works in progress include Dawson Creek, British Columbia (pop 10,000), Chetwynd (pop. 3,000), Taylor (pop. 1,300), and Hudson's Hope (pop. 1,150). As you can see they are all in different stages of development. They follow the same structure which was based on some of the better FAs on other cities. I have found that the best resource for these have been the local historical associations. Personal knowledge of the town has also been invaluable. --maclean25 04:40, 23 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The postcard looks nice. How old is it? It might be worth adding a date to the Image:McDonald Mill, Candia, NH.jpg page, as well as the caption. ---Aude 18:01, 23 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
