NRHP-listed places in Ohio
Hi JaclynVogt, i am a longterm editor who has mostly worked on places listed on the National Register of Historic Places, of which there are a lot more articles needed. My attention was called to your draft article at Draft:Pataskala Jail. Thank you for contributing!

About NRHP documents in Ohio, they are mostly not available on-line from the National Park Service. But they are mostly available from NARA. I am adding a reference to Patalaska Jail's document now to the article. But for any more, you could find the NRHP doc from NARA by going to https://catalog.archives.gov/ and searching for either "Pataskala Jail" or for "83001997" (the NRHP reference number for the place). Be patient then, it can take quite a while for the document to fully download from there. Hope this might help you in the future. Keep up your good work! --Doncram (talk) 18:27, 29 August 2022 (UTC)

In fact for this document, and for the related document about study of historic resources in Pataskala, the downloading to the window is going really really slowly for me. So what I do is hit the down-arrow icon to the lower left of the downloading window, which starts a downloading to my computer where I can see percentage progress going on. And I back out of the first page so that downloading to that window is stopped. It can take 10 minutes or longer, even up to an hour for really big documents, which is ridiculous. I think they scanned the documents badly. Anyhow, I will make a few more edits to your article, and it should be good to go, and/or you could add more yourself from these sources. Cheers, --Doncram (talk) 18:35, 29 August 2022 (UTC)


 * Hello, Doncram, thank you for this excellent information and detailed guidance on how to access it. I was not aware of the NARA holdings on digital NRHP documents. Thank you for sharing this resource and for the added edits to the draft. I so appreciate your contributions and insight. I will most definitely be mining NARA for additional information on the jail and other NRHP properties in Pataskala. Many thanks! Jaclyn JaclynVogt (talk) 18:46, 29 August 2022 (UTC)


 * Yay, I am so glad you understand and appreciate my effort. I'm glad to see the article was promoted to mainspace, and i see you fixed "town" to "village" as apparently was needed, good.  I really do want to support starting NRHP editors (and not everyone is that interested in getting to the good NRHP documents, which I think are really important to use). It also can be difficult to get by the various Wikipedia hurdles to get articles fully published: most of us can use some other people's help sometimes! AFC editor User:Bkissin is often a great help, by the way.  I am thinking you are Ohio-focused...there have been several NRHP editors who have done some Ohio articles, but currently I think there may not be anyone very active in that area, so it would be especially great if you are interested.  You should feel free to join WikiProject NRHP wp:NRHP by signing yourself up within some subsection on the main page, and whether you sign up or not you are welcome to post at the WikiProject's Talk page, wt:NRHP.  You can announce any accomplishment there, or ask any question.  Also FYI there is "Help" type information at wp:NRHPHELP about finding and using various sources.  It covers a website http://www.elkman.net/nrhp/ where some tools are made available for auto-generating NRHP infoboxes already mostly filled out.  And there is some Ohio-specific info at subsection wp:NRHPHELPOH: specifically there's an "Ohio Historic Places Dictionary, Volume 2" (1999) available, edited by a Lorrie K. Owen, which has been helpful to me in the past, esp. when I could not find the NRHP nomination document for a site.  Hmm, I hope I am not overwhelming you.  You did fine, can continue to do fine, however you did compose the draft page.  It's always okay to bring a draft along to a certain point then ask for others to help, too.  Again I am glad you're active here!  I will "watchlist" this page so I would likely see if you make reply to me here, but if you want to reach me more certainly, like if I seem not to have noticed something here, please get my attention by posting to my Talk page. cheers, --Doncram (talk) 22:55, 29 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks Doncram! JaclynVogt, your articles so far have been good! Usually Historic sites, especially NRHP listings, are usually notable, so get in touch with me and I will take a look and usually accept the draft. The only area that I can be a little critical is in terms of sources (as Doncram can attest). As long as there are at least three in-depth reliable sources, you should be good. Happy editing! Bkissin (talk) 23:10, 29 August 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for the info and invite to join the NRHP WikiProject. I will look into all of this and most definitely plan to add more content—with both of your suggestions in mind! Thanks again for the warm welcome! JaclynVogt (talk) 03:29, 30 August 2022 (UTC)

 * I think the article is a great contribution! And I am impressed with the multiple sources, many apparently offline, which you found and used, such as "Beeson, Mary Ellen; Beeson, Dave; Widner, Marjorie Smith; Black, Mary Osborn (1999). Preservation 2000. Licking County, OH: West Licking Historical Publication Committee".  I wonder, did you go to a local library, or to a local historical society to get those?  Or maybe you have access to an Ohio newspapers literature database.  It seems you are very resourceful, anyhow, and the multiple sources, used as you have done, make for a very good article! --Doncram (talk) 22:59, 29 August 2022 (UTC)

Thank you so much! Because I am originally from Licking County, Ohio, I own copies of the print resources cited. My parents are involved in the historical society there, and I’ve gotten copies of some of the local news articles through them. I use the Chronicling America Newspapers project and for a time had access to Newspapers.com. It also helps to be in library science graduate program, which has introduced me to some resources as well. Really appreciate your encouragement and kind words!

 * Ah, u seem like a good person to know. I don't currently have access to newspapers.com or anything like that, although there is some Wikipedia program which I could apply to, which might provide such. I have a bunch of articles in Draft status, at least one really needing a local newspapers search. If i come across which one that is, I might ask for ur help (and it would be no biggie for u to say no, but no harm asking i would hope).  Also I have been planning to write a guide for local historical society people, to help them get involved, to avoid common huge problems; perhaps if i finish a draft of that i could ask u to run it by your connexions.  cheers, --Doncram (talk) 03:53, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
