[edit] Article Split?

I'd like to see Mill City Museum split out as a separate article (it's currently a redirect), and filled out with more information about the museum itself. Thoughts? --Rehcsif 18:14, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

I would suggest starting a museum section within the article first, and then if both the historical building sections and the museum sections are large enough, it would make sense to split them. Alternatively, if the museum section is much larger than the mill section, perhaps the mill section could be an historical section within the revised article.--Appraiser 18:26, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
That's fine, and there's already a very small section about the museum in the article. I just thought that it might get more attention if it had it's own articles. And as it stands, if someone enters "Mill City Museum" looking for info on that, they get the Washburn article, which isn't exactly what they were looking for... But whatever make the most sense! --Rehcsif 18:32, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
Another possibility is to rename this "Mill City Museum" if the article becomes mostly about the museum.--Appraiser 18:53, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
