I've reviewed the guidelines on dates and added some internal links for dates that have both the month and year. Re: section with "The," this guideline doesn't apply in this case. The city's nicknames include "the Steel City" and "the Iron City," the article emphasizing the pre-eminence of Pittsburgh in that type of manufacture. Just as "the Pill" is not "Pill," "the Iron City" is not "Iron City," (which is a beer.) Re:Infobox, I'm unaware of one that applies to a history of a city. The main article has a City infobox. Thanks for the semi-automated review. Would appreciate some editor review.Tomcool 19:05, 15 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
