Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Lancaster, Pennsylvania may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s. If you have, don't worry, just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:

Arkansas Project

Hey! That sounds good to me - I'm in! BZA99 (talk) 02:04, 15 August 2013 (UTC)

Let me throw this out to you. The article about Harrison, Arkansas needs a good, solid writing of its history--particularly its history of oppression towards African-Americans. The town is unique. It was a sundown town (a mere 2 sentence entry in its history), it's the headquarters of the KKK (a fact that keeps getting deleted and shouldn't), and in 2003 its mayor met with community leaders to address "evils resulting from past events" (no mention and there should be). I feel that if someone wrote a thorough, factual, encyclopedic, and neutral history of this town--the good, bad, ugly, and hopeful--it would be less prone to attack. Take a look at my write on the history of Mena, Arkansas, and also at the Talk page for Harrison. Let me know your thoughts. Richard Apple (talk) 04:26, 15 August 2013 (UTC)

Randolph Mitchell House

Publishers are typically located in better-known cities; having simply "New Lexington" is unhelpful for readers, so it is important to have a link in this section. Nyttend (talk) 04:40, 16 August 2013 (UTC)

I'm getting it from common sense and a desire to help readers. This is a basic method of helping readers, which is what should be driving everything we do here. Nyttend (talk) 06:53, 16 August 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for August 16

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Frankfort Springs, Pennsylvania, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Robert Martin (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Using IMDB

By the way, your link to how to cite using IMDB mentioned an inappropriate use as "Any potentially contentious material about living persons (BLPs)", such as birthplace? IMDB often just copies the information on Misplaced Pages. It's circular. Until a reliable third-party source can be found for BLP facts, they should be challenged and/or removed. Cheers!
