Gold County

Hi!

I think that including the topics you've described would be excellent - like you said, it's part of the area's history. As long as there are sources to show where these are notable topics, they should be good to add. You can do a really short overview of these topics and link to the main articles where people could find more in-depth content. As far as the pre-existing content in the article goes, I would say try to find sourcing for what you can and if you can't, you can either tag the content as needing sourcing or remove it.

This sounds like it's going to be really fun to research! This was a great choice for an article! Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 13:52, 27 September 2018 (UTC)

Notes

Hi! Here are my notes:

• This needs a little tweaking for flow or formatting in the county section. I'm not sure which, entirely. I'm going to format this a little and you can let me know what you think. Mostly I think that it feels a little too disjointed, but hopefully the bullet points will help.

• The fourth source needs to be fixed since it currently lists the source as ""PortalGuard - Portal Access". link.galegroup.com".

Other than that, this looks good - it could use some more sourcing since you rely heavily on one specific source for some of the information, but I understand that there was not really a lot of sourcing out there to begin with. I think that this looks about ready to be moved live. On a side note, is it possible for you to find sourcing for some of the other sections? I know that you didn't write them, but they really could use some sourcing if you'd be interested in doing that. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 21:06, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
