are landslides sometimes caused because of a foundation made of Sandstone?

Answer: possibly but it can also be caused by chemical erosion by water which seeps through cracks in the rock and expands at night time when it is frozen, which then splits after time and causes the rock to break away which in turn will knock other rocks and eventually cause some effect of a landslide.

why does this page have no properties of sandstone?

[edit] WikiProject Ohio

If we put this page in the project of every geographical area that sandstone occurs, we'll end up with hundreds. There would need to be something unusually remarkable about the sandstones in Ohio for the inclusion of this article in the relevant WikiProject to make any sense.
