Talk:List of RHPs in LA County

Merge
I think the page name is actually better for List of Registered Historic Places in Los Angeles County, California, but the content seems to be completely redundant with this page. This page has better formatting, a table, images, etc. Minnaert (talk) 21:58, 24 June 2008 (UTC)


 * You're right to notice the overlap. Thank you for putting up merger proposal notices and allowing for discussion, rather than just doing a merger.  In fact, I agree they should be merged, but I meant for this table version, just started on May 15, to be merged into the other, older article, so that the longer history is preserved.  Essentially the table is to replace the info in the other version.


 * When i started this table version, i did so using a tool created and maintained by Elkman which extracted all the NRHPs listed in LA county from the NRIS database. And then most of the work done immediately was to move the rows covering City of Los Angeles sites into the list-article which became List of Registered Historic Places in Los Angeles.  I always meant to come back here and move this table stuff into the List of Registered Historic Places in Los Angeles County, California article, but just didn't get back very quickly.


 * Before doing the merger/replacement, I would want to verify that all of the entries in the other list are covered by the new entries here in this table, and to ensure that any links to real articles are captured here. Minnaert, do you want to do some of that checking?


 * Also before doing the merger/replacement, I would want to check with Cbl62, who has been most active on LA historic sites. doncram (talk) 00:23, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm fine with merging whenever Doncram thinks it's appropriate to do so. I've been working on the City of LA list and plan to work on this one once we get the City of LA list into real good shape.Cbl62 (talk) 01:40, 25 June 2008 (UTC)


 * it's great work, and it looks pretty close to me. I will double check and merge the this into List of Registered Historic Places in Los Angeles County, California soon. Minnaert (talk) 22:55, 25 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Okay, that would be fine. Please do make sure that the new table captures any blue-links that are in the older list properly.  Over time, older lists capture good info from the cumulative edits of occasional wikipedians.  doncram (talk) 23:01, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
