Talk:History of Cleveland, Ohio

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

History of Cleveland, Ohio was a good article nominee, but did not meet the good article criteria at the time. There are suggestions below for improving the article. Once these are addressed, the article can be renominated. Editors may also seek a reassessment of the decision if they believe there was a mistake. Reviewed version: March 30, 2006

Comment, I could help if you want as I was the one who created the History of Miami article and made it a FA but I'm going to be mostly inactive, leave a comment in my talk. Thanks --172.140.242.178 03:45, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Repeal of Prohibition

The article states that Cleveland repealed Prohibition on December 23, 1933, and I removed this statement, which used to follow the first: " – nearly eight months longer than the Eighteenth Amendment." I assume that phrase referred to the Twenty-first Amendment, which was ratified on Dec. 5, 1933, which is eighteen days before Cleveland's repeal. If it actually means something else, please re-word it and put it back in the article. Confiteordeo 22:50, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
