Edits to List of plantations in Kentucky (U.S. state)
Hello! ! I made a good-faith reversion to some of your edits to List of plantations in Kentucky (U.S. state). I had edited the wiki-links you changed to conform to the names of the pages listed on each of the county-level National Register of Historic Places listings in Kentucky. While a lot of the links I used are red, that is useful information because pages about those plantations still need to be created. The links you've used are working links, but generally take the user to pages about topics besides the plantations specified. For example: ping me here if you want to keep talking
 * 1) Alexandria takes you to the city in Egypt, and it is called Sutfield House on National Register of Historic Places listings in Mercer County, Kentucky.
 * 2) Arcadia takes you to a description of the ancient Greek religious concept, but Arcadia (Shelby City, Kentucky) is the listing name on National Register of Historic Places listings in Lincoln County, Kentucky.
 * 3) Blossom Hill is sort of a strange change - this takes you to the disambiguation page, which shows the red-link to Blossom Hill (plantation), which is where my link Blossom Hill took the user in the prior edit. Although based on the NRHP number it looks like the current name is "Blossom Hill Farm", it seems like the correct NRHP name might actually be Trout House, which is also reflected on National Register of Historic Places listings in Trimble County, Kentucky
 * 4) The link you added to Edgewood, Kentucky takes you to the city of Edgewood, not the plantation. At National Register of Historic Places listings in Jefferson County, Kentucky, the link to the plantation is listed as Edgewood (Louisville, Kentucky).
 * 5) The Hickories takes you to a page about a property in upstate New York, while on National Register of Historic Places listings in Lincoln County, Kentucky it is listed as James W. Alcorn House
 * 6) Whitehaven takes you to a page about a city in the UK, while Anderson-Smith House is the listing on National Register of Historic Places listings in McCracken County, Kentucky
 * 7) I notice you also changed the category to Category:Plantations in Kentucky (U.S. State), but that category doesn't exist, unlike Category:Plantations in Kentucky, so I'm not sure what that change was about.

 * - I understand why you would follow the NRHP listing and make the changes, but the names listed by NRHP are not always the historic and/or original name of the house or property, which is what I was attempting to do. Granted, in doing so, time has not been on my side with that here, but the additions to this page from me derived from a larger project.  That said, I was unaware of the problems with the links, and appreciate those corrections.  It has been my goal to build pages for all these listings, as time permits.  Thank you for your input.--Southern.historian 6 July 2018
