 * Symbol confirmed.svg Article creation and DYK filing dates okay. Article length okay at 1777 B readable prose size.  Sourcing good, no signs of copyvio, neutrality fine.  Images all taken by the author.  QPQ done.  One use of "Dr." that's against usual MoS practices.  Hook sourcings and lengths okay, but both are pretty dull.  Looking at the images, the most interesting thing to me is that the Biard Cabin has been moved inside the museum building (rather than being outside, as in many historical villages and the like).  So how about the following ...
 * ALT2: ... that the Lamar County Historical Museum in Paris, Texas, is home to the Biard Cabin, built in 1846 and now relocated inside the museum structure?
 * If this is used, the associated DYK image could be changed to that one as well. But the author and the DYK closer can decide, any of these are okay with me.  Wasted Time R (talk) 15:18, 12 March 2016 (UTC)


 * Thanks, Wasted Time R. I've removed the "Dr." honorific per the MoS and your suggestion. Also, I've gone with the photo of the Biard Cabin and struck my alternate hook choice. Please feel free to tweak the hook, but I couldn't find any sources explicitly stating that the cabin had been relocated to the museum (although clearly it was), so I'm hesitant to put it into the hook. Thanks again for your review! Michael Barera (talk) 17:13, 12 March 2016 (UTC)
