History section is improved, but it ends with the separation from Virginia and the payment of debt in 1939. There is almost no history from the time West Virginia actually became a state!
Fill in new sections on Economy, Transportation; "The state has [sic] a projected nominal GSP of $63.34 billion in 2009." Data often 5-10 years old.
References need to be changed to footnotes of specific items. There is nothing wrong with one or two "general" references, but something needs to be done with that long list.
