I'm having some trouble quantifying types of rhp's because there are so many red links, so i'm not sure what category some of them fall into. Here's a possible DYK hook:
Obviously all the examples would need to be linked, too, which I'll do if you want to use something like this. Lvklock ( talk) 00:03, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
Hi. Just wondering, are you using a specific source to identify the neighborhoods? Some of these seem a little off. The Mundelein College Skyscraper, for example, is located on the north side of Devon Avenue, which would put it in Rogers Park, not Edgewater. And the South Pond Refectory is too far north to be in the Chicago Loop. It's actually part of Lincoln Park. Just FYI. Zagalejo ^^^ 19:18, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
I had pasted in some notes here, but have now deleted them, as intro is okay for now. doncram ( talk) 19:27, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
I am aware that there were a couple bad locations included in the coordinates passed to the Google map. I've deleted coordinates for 3 obvious outliers with incorrect location data. However, it may take Google a few days to catch up and to display a map focused on Chicago alone. But the reader can still zoom in on Chicago and see precise locations for 200 or so sites, which is awesome, i think! doncram ( talk) 19:27, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

The image Image:Symphony center.JPG is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check

There's a discussion at Talk:National Register of Historic Places listings in Detroit, Michigan about including NRHPs of Hamtramck and another separate town that are enclaves, surrounded by the city of Detroit. Isn't Cicero, Illinois an enclave surrounded by Chicago? I'm not sure. It has just one NRHP listing, J. Sterling Morton High School East Auditorium, which could possibly be added to the Chicago article, if presented suitably. Are there any other enclaves? doncram ( talk) 01:41, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
This page seems to be getting too long. I suggest breaking it into two or more additional pages by alpha organization. In addition to shortening load time and making use easier, descriptions can then be added with greater room. Alanscottwalker ( talk) 14:16, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
Maybe somebody could make a clickable map for Chicago and/or Cook County? Smallbones ( talk) 16:28, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
I'll get on it - expect real, double checked articles with stubbish intros in a day or two. At that point help would be nice with triple checking (is the renumbering correct, are all the sites in the right division, do the coords line up with the addresses, can I count?), writing real intros, and coordinating the NRHP Cook County List, and the Chicago NRHP list - which I expect will be a brief pass through or even redirect to Cook County. I don't think Central will grow very fast at all - it is after all small and already old! I would defer to a current Chicagoan (I'm former) on whether this division lines up with people's perceptions - but please do it quickly before I finish all the work! Smallbones ( talk) 03:08, 25 October 2010 (UTC)
I've removed the main content here (see MARK THIS EDIT - in this article's history) and put it into the 4 subcategories
I'd thought I had 320 entries, minus one overlapping district (Logan Square Parks and Boulevards), which would conform to the 319 entries that were on this page. While making the new articles, I thought I saw one other in two districts (Jacob A Ries Park) in both North and West Sides - which would mess everything up!
The intro on Central Chicago is ok, the other intros stink. I'm sure you can find other things to improve. Time for sleep. Smallbones ( talk) 04:13, 26 October 2010 (UTC)
How about the names:

Could someone please identify why there is no link from these Chicago NRHP list-articles to West Jackson Boulevard District, a new article i just created? It is also known as, and redirects from, West Jackson Historic District. It shoulda shown up when searching on "what links to" the article name. If it is not in one of these lists, and i couldn't find it, then it needs to be added. If it is already in then maybe some merge is needed. -- Doncram ( talk) 08:06, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
It apparently isn't on the National Register (too new, having been built in the 1970s), but it might become a Chicago Landmark, and the National Trust for Historic Preservation has listed the old Prentice Women's Hospital and Maternity Center as possibly the most endangered historic place in the country. See http://www.npr.org/2011/06/15/137201120/places-in-peril-2011s-most-endangered-historic-sites and http://www.preservationnation.org/travel-and-sites/sites/midwest-region/prentice-womens-hospital.html for details. It needs to be documented with a photo (or two or three) before it gets torn down. The building is included on List of Northwestern University buildings, but that's the only place I've seen it documented in Wikipedia. -- Orlady ( talk) 15:37, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
