This article needs to be broken up into 50 articles. There must be over 1000 cemeteries in Massachusetts alone!- 96.237.8.162 ( talk) 22:16, 5 October 2010 (UTC)
A medium-high priority effort should be undertaken to include all of the NRHP cemeteries on this list. I became aware of this problem when working on National cemeteries in TN which are NRHP cemeteries. TX only has part of its cemeteries listed here. The MS entry here doesn't exist, yet it has 6 NRHP cemeteries, at least two of them are National cemeteries; AR has 8 NRHP cemeteries, only 1 here. AK entry is missing but has 1 NRHP cemetery. Maine (here) is missing almost half of its NRHP cemeteries. Multiple sources need to be reconciled with this list including:
A first step might be to build a state list here or on a sub-page to track which states are in process or have been worked so we don't duplicate efforts. Are there other sources than the two above that need to be included in the reconcilliation? This needs more ideas, some guidelines/direction about existing practices, and a lot of volunteers.

only include entries that are blue links. Looking over this list I am inclined to recommend the same thing here. What do you think? Should we remove red links? Einar aka Carptrash ( talk) 22:23, 29 May 2012 (UTC)
to remove red linked cemeteries and am about to start taking out ones that have a reference to a book that has "notable cemeteries" in the title. These were added over 4 years ago. The argument usually made in favor of keeping these sorts of red links is that they (the links) encourage editors to write articles about them. I am a proponent of the 'Write the article first" school of thought, but I am now claiming that leaving the names on as red links for that long strongly suggests that no one is being spurred on to writing such articles. If you have an opinion one way or another please feel free to offer it. Einar aka Carptrash ( talk) 17:32, 16 March 2014 (UTC)
Use GNIS [1] to find cemeteries. Select state, county, and then feature type (cemetery). No name for feature is needed. GNIS will pop up with the cemetery names, a GNIS feature ID, Lat/Long etc. – S. Rich ( talk) 17:35, 3 May 2014 (UTC)

I've uploaded the public domain list of names from USGS of the named cemeteries in the USA. The current count is 133,964 sites. If a complete list is the objective then you might want to look at the Mix'n'match tool. Cemetery Mix'n'match Have at it, as we get a complete set we can build out tools to help maintain facts and lists easier. Wolfgang8741 says: If not you, then who? ( talk) 23:54, 3 April 2018 (UTC)
