Cincinnati, Lebanon and Northern Railway[edit]
I'd appreciate train buffs and those interested in Ohio history looking through this and offering suggestions. PedanticallySpeaking 18:09, Jan 18, 2005 (UTC)
- Granted, I'm not a train-buff nor particulary into Ohio history (WV-history is another matter, but then my better half is from there), but I like learning new things so I popped over and looked throught it.
- From the initial read, I got one suggestion: Break it into sections. Please. It's (IMHO) much easier to read on a screen when it is.
- Other than that, nice article as far as I can tell. I enjoyed reading it.

- I'd agree. I would break it into sections and also maybe see if you can have a see also section where it links to the List of United States railroads page so people can find out more information about rail lines in the United States. Otherwise, looks good. --Woohookitty 00:52, 19 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- Thank you kindly WegianWarrior and Woohookitty. I've divided it up into sections of a graf or two apiece. And I put a see also link to the lists of active and defunct railroads. PedanticallySpeaking 18:37, Jan 19, 2005 (UTC)
- I'd add a map, though I do understand that it's nontrivial to make one. The easiest way is probably to use a map from http://www.nationalatlas.gov/ and draw the lines. --SPUI 21:05, 21 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- There is a link to a map in my external links. Unfortunately, I'm not that adept at some of the technical side of Wikipedia and don't know where to begin on drawing a map of my own. PedanticallySpeaking 18:20, Jan 27, 2005 (UTC)

- Are we able to expand the lead section? We need more than one sentence, and we should make it so that we can get a readers attention ("Wow factor"). The map idea might be good (especially of the route), but I can understand if that's a bit tricky. However, well researched and this definitely has the potential to be a featured article! Last thing is: do you have any other images? That always increases people's interest. - Ta bu shi da yu 01:27, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks very much for your praise. I'm not very good on the technical side of things so I wouldn't even know how to begin to draw a map of the route. Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures. Someone else added the one that's there. Finally, I will take a look at the lead. My leads usually have been very concise, along the lines of the inverted pyramid style, and others have commented on my leads. Thanks again. PedanticallySpeaking 14:38, Feb 12, 2005 (UTC)
- I can't see anything else that needs to resolved then! Thought about submitting it to FAC? - Ta bu shi da yu 15:00, 12 Feb 2005 (UTC)
