Hello from the other end of the state

Hi. I ran across your work at Mt. Zion Church and Cemetery (Elkhorn, Tennessee), and I see that you are knowledgable and interested in building articles about your local area and its history.

I'd like to invite you to join "WikiProject Tennessee", which facilitates coordination with other folks interested in topics related to the state. You can officially join by adding your name at Wikipedia:WikiProject Tennessee/Members, which will let others of us know you are around. A more useful page is Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Tennessee, where you can ask or answer questions. The page Wikipedia:WikiProject Tennessee is a bit less interactive; it's a repository of information about resources for article development, requests for help, alerts, and other resources for people interested in the state. --Orlady (talk) 17:23, 29 March 2013 (UTC)

Photos, National Register properties, etc.

Hi, Cj4258.

You may or may not be aware that the National Register of Historic Places Wikiproject team has been working on an ambitious project to acquire photos of every property on the National Register of Historic Places. Your area is one that is short on photos right now (take a look at the empty slots for images on National Register of Historic Places listings in Henry County, Tennessee). It looks to me like you are in an excellent position to improve your area's representation here -- and I bet you would enjoy contributing. You've uploaded some nice photos in the past (I especially like your shots of the interior and exterior of Mt. Zion Church). If you have some more photos in your collection of historic sites in Henry County and surrounding counties, or can acquire some more (this spring or later), please consider contributing them!

Also, it appears to me (based mostly on this) that the Henry County Courthouse is part of the Paris Commercial Historic District. Is that correct? --Orlady (talk) 14:09, 2 April 2014 (UTC)

I really do enjoy contributing and will do so as time permits. I am apprehensive about writing articles for the districts because I feel like I first need to know exactly what buildings the NRHP considers part of them. I would doubt that the courthouse is included in the commercial district but I have no way to say for sure. When I try to get more details on the NRHP website, I get a blank PDF saying "The PDF file for this National Register record has not yet been digitized." Cj4258 (talk) 02:26, 4 April 2014 (UTC)

Shucks, I was hoping that you had local knowledge regarding the historic district! Unfortunately, records for Tennessee listings on the National Register aren't available on that National Park Service website -- we have similar problems all over the state. However, you can contribute photos without writing articles to go with them (and many folks around here appreciate people who contribute photos even more than they appreciate people who write articles). Pages like National Register of Historic Places listings in Henry County, Tennessee and National Register of Historic Places listings in Weakley County, Tennessee have many empty slots waiting for photos... --Orlady (talk) 04:33, 4 April 2014 (UTC)
