Naming terms "NRHP-listed building" etc.
The terms NRHP-listed property, NRHP-listed building, NRHP-listed historic district, NRHP-listed structure, and NRHP-listed object, NRHP-listed site are valid terms in English usage. For use in other articles, I find it necessary for these terms to be defined in context here, which is accomplished by incorporating and bolding these terms within this article, and by setting up redirects. This is not defining anything new, it is not violating Wikipedia dictum not to coin new phrases

Plural forms NRHP-listed properties, NRHP-listed buildings, NRHP-listed historic districts, NRHP-listed structures, and NRHP-listed objects, NRHP-listed sites are helpful redirects also, as are non-abbreviated forms National Register of Historic Places-listed property, National Register of Historic Places-listed building, National Register of Historic Places-listed historic district, National Register of Historic Places-listed structure, National Register of Historic Places-listed object, and National Register of Historic Places-listed site.

Note that within this article, the term "object" can mean something nominated for NRHP listing, or presumably something that is not even yet nominated. But an "NRHP-listed object" is an object that has met the criteria and has been listed. This is consistentIMO with usage in official NRHP documents such as "How to Apply the National Register Criteria for Evaluation".

)Notice further that the types of cultural property allowed for NRHP listing differs considerably from those allowed for the main heritage registers of other nations, e.g. for the French classification of their Monuments historiques. --Doncram (talk) 21:31, 2 September 2022 (UTC)
