And some aren't? Just curious. -- Ebyabe 18:12, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
I noticed that several of the sites I have listed on List of historic sites in Ohio County, West Virginia were removed from your page. Were these sites removed from the NRHP? Mphamilton 05:00, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
I suggest that the county list-articles of counties near to one another be merged into regional groupings, so that readers and editors can review the nearby NRHP listings together. The linked "map of all coordinates" will then show one coherent map for the region.
I don't care about which specific partition of the state is used, but here's how one partition would work: Using MagazineUSA.com's partition, there would be nine groupings:
All nine would be reasonable sized groupings, page-size-wise. The system would work exactly the same, just when one selected a given county from the list one would be brought to that county's list-table amidst a regional page, and the "map of all coordinates" would work well showing a larger, coherent area instead of showing just one county's NRHP locations.
Here's how the state-wide list-article table would appear, more or less, with a sortable column for "region":

Again I am open for there being a different partition, but some grouping, any grouping would be a help. -- Doncram ( talk) 04:05, 25 September 2018 (UTC)
P.S. I revise the table in the list-article to show these regions, at least for now. It is just informational so far, it does not change where any links go to. -- Doncram ( talk) 04:07, 25 September 2018 (UTC)
This area proportionally has the smallest population. The larger communities in the area include Weston (Lewis County), Buckhannon (Upshur County), Glenville (Gilmer County) and Summersville (Nicholas County). Nicholas and Clay counties have been important coal counties and were home at one time to several ethnically diverse coal towns. Towns like Widen, Clay County, had incredibly diverse communities during their heyday as coal towns. There have also been major lumbering operations in the region. Throughout the Mountain Lakes, English, Irish, and German ancestry are common. To a lesser extent, Scots-Irish, Italian, Dutch, Scottish, and French roots are also present. Historically, Scots-Irish and German farm culture had a major impact in the area. These older ancestral roots were major influences in the early history of the state, however there are currently few distinct regional ethnic communities in the counties in the Mountain Lakes region. Lewis County was an important rural home for West Virginia Catholics, mostly of Irish and German ancestry, and there are prominent reminders of those communities in the area. Most activities to be found in this area reflect the general population, and many activities have an Appalachian emphasis, although there are a few that also have an ethnic flavor, including the Irish Spring Festival.
I've given notice at wt:NRHP asserting that we have somewhat of a consensus here, and calling for broader consideration, before going ahead with implementing the above. I paused for a while to let the Texas regions discussions conclude, which I think they have done, and to allow each of us to think about the 8-regions approach for a bit; i think it is a good approach. -- Doncram ( talk) 21:07, 25 October 2018 (UTC)
