This mall no longer exists; therefore I couldn't possibly be writing an ad for it. I am trying to write the history of this notable shopping center/mall for inclusion in the "shopping malls of South Carolina" category as well as the "defunct shopping malls" category. This was the first indoor shopping mall in Charleston, South Carolina. I feel that this is a significant fact that would warrant inclusion in Wikipedia. Thank you.

The amout of work you have put into this article clearly shows. The only suggestion I would venture it that it requires sources. Usually links to newspaper articles about the mall and specific topics related to it are helpful in providing Verifyability. Try this site for local papers that might be helpful.

Hopefully I have rectified the issues brought to light by adding numerous references to support my documentation. Thank you. Toddbarwick (talk) 04:17, 25 December 2007 (UTC)

Not any problem. You have done well. Congrats! I like to see Mall related Articles do well. May I suggest that, If you are intrested, you join the Malls WikiProject and improve other Mall Articles that you might be knowledgable about. I see that you have done work on several already from looking at your Edit history. Some of us keep an eye on Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Malls also, just to try and save a few Mall Articles before they get removed, but that isnt for the feint of heart. In any case, Welcome to Wikipedia :) If you ever have a question, feel free to ask on my talk page. Exit2DOS2000•T•C• 23:17, 25 December 2007 (UTC)

Thanks very much. This is one of my first attempts, so I'm still learning. Any assistance in helping to "clean it up" to meet Wikipedia standards is appreciated! I don't want my page deleted. Toddbarwick (talk) 00:17, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
