The current WikiProject National Register of Historic Places Collaboration of the Fortnight is National Register of Historic Places.
Please help improve the article to the Good article standard or higher.

Welcome to the National Register of Historic Places WikiProject Division for selecting an article to become the subject of the Project's "Collaboration of the Fortnight"

Every two weeks an article comes along that the editors here collectively decide shall temporarily become known as the WikiProject National Register of Historic Places Current Collaboration of the Fortnight (aka the WP:NRHPCCOTF). Kidding. Sometimes the collaboration will last more than two weeks sometimes less. The key is to bring the article up to GA status or higher through the collaboration. More than one article can be collaborated on at once if enough editors are interested but it should go through the nomination process below to make sure the collaboration has enough interest.

[edit] Fort de Chartres

I delisted this as a Good article on 21 February 2007, it isn't horrible, it just needs a little TLC and some less ambiguous sourcing to bring it back up to GA status. This project probably wouldn't take horribly long. IvoShandor 08:48, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Auldbrass Plantation

The main house, stable complex and kennels were designed and built by Frank Lloyd Wright during 1940-1951 in Beaufort County, South Carolina. The plantation was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.

[edit] Cathedral of Our Lady of Peace

Even reading the description, I am not sure A-Class is clearly defined. This isn't a GA, and I thought, since A is listed above GA that it was higher, possibly should be assessed B. Regardless, I see some huge, and glaring errors that would probably result in an article of this length not passing GA, I wouldn't pass it. Shouldn't be too much work, citing and cleanup seem to be the major tasks. I have posted a to-do list which I will add to. IvoShandor 07:10, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

  • I reacessed this article B, based on the criteria. I added some stuff to the to-do list that I saw at a glance, there are other problems surely.IvoShandor 07:30, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] National Historic Landmark

Another important project article that is sadly lacking. Almost devoid of content it is. IvoShandor 07:23, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

This is a really important article, linked from thousands of individual NHL articles, and it really needs to be better. doncram (talk) 16:52, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

  • Comment: A most important predecessor to the NRHP. HABS is one of the earliest moves toward preservation in the U.S. An understanding of the NPS programs that preceded the NHPA of 1966 is essential if anyone is to understand why the NRHP exists as it does today.
