Sandbox 3 represents an idea by a few contributors, total removal of Historical Facts section including entire Parent County and Boundary Changes along with the image and put in the History section. Dsammy 02:27, 23 September 2011 (UTC)

Comments?

Somebody is going to get lost without timeline/guideline separate from the History. Dsammy 02:30, 23 September 2011 (UTC)

Please see my comments on Sandbox4. Thanks! Lise 13:39, 23 September 2011 (UTC)


 * I think this model is an interesting idea. Total removal of the historical background type of info and taking visitors straight to the resources, which is probably what they're looking for. The information that used to be in historical background section is already available in the county infobox and other sections of the page. I kind of like that the heading Resources is no longer needed in this scenario. Murphynw 15:09, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Are you saying information about a county that was created from SEVEN counties at once should be in infobox? What about additions and takeaway portions (borders change between counties often)? Don't forget the images of "named after" you like will be dumped in History section, robbing the space. Dsammy 16:22, 23 September 2011 (UTC)

This structure makes sense to me. This is the one I would choose. It looks cleaner and more logical to me. I like it a lot better than the completely flat structure in Sandbox4. Three tweaks:


 * 1. I thought we had agreed Social Groups Online was not going to be in Repostitories, but moved into its own section AFTER Repositories.
 * 2. If we have the date founded, and parent county in the info box there is no need to repeat it in History. Actually I would prefer to see it in History and take it out of the info box. But it need not appear both places.
 * 3. I also thought we agreed to take out all the sub-headings under Repositories. Delete Archives and Libraries, Courthouse, FHCs, and Societies AS HEADINGS but continue to list their information under Repositories.DiltsGD 19:03, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
