Wondering how to edit this U.S. County Entry?
The WikiProject U.S. Counties standards might help.-— Preceding unsigned comment added by Rambot (talk • contribs) 02:09, 27 July 2003 (UTC)[reply]

This is an excellent article. I lived in Story county during my youth and remember it fondly. For a long time, I lived in Kelley, Iowa, a small town just south of Ames. I recall being told that Kelley had been the county seat for a brief period of time, but that is not mentioned in this writeup. Is this bit of oral history incorrect, or too minor to warrant mention?

Bits such as that are important for history sections, but you'd need to find a reliable source to include it here; even if we know something is true, posting it without such a source is considered original research, which isn't allowed. If it really was the county seat, however, it might not be the hardest thing to prove. Nyttend (talk) 00:39, 18 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

semi-protection[edit]

Article has recently been subject of vandalism. Anyone care to discuss semiprotecting this article ?--RichardMills65 (talk) 23:13, 26 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
