Townships[edit]

I just want to note and explain some of the changes I am making to the township articles for this county; since they are all affected, I thought I should put this note here on the parent county's page. An editor has added some material to the township articles, which is great; it just hasn't always been in the same format that is often used for counties and townships. I've done some cleanup and standardization work, such as linking "ZIP code"; moving towns out of the infobox and making sure they appear in the descriptive text instead; removing telephone exchanges from the area code field (not that this might not be useful information, but the area code field would seem to exist just for that one piece of information); adding a geography section; changing the "In-County Neighbors" heading to read "Adjacent townships", and moving the list into the geography section; adding an "education" section under which schools and colleges are listed; et cetera. I hope the editor won't mind these changes, as I certainly don't want to discourage anyone from expanding these articles. Also, if sources can be found to support some of the statements made, that would be helpful. Omnedon (talk) 06:36, 15 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Suggested removal or shrinking of some sections[edit]

There are several section of this article which, while of possible interest, may (perhaps) not be significant enough for mention in the article for one reason or another. The list of elected officials, for example, is available at the cited website, so perhaps a link would be sufficient. The sports section has mention of various awards, as well as a complete list of attendees for a 2009 cross-country invitational; this may be too fine a level of detail for this article, especially as the event was not a "county" event.
