dab page format changes edit

Hi, i added to and cleaned up this dab a few days ago. Another editor, in this edit, changed it in some good ways but some bad ways also.

Order of places entries is most naturally by geography, i.e. in the United States by state. Geographic order is acceptable by MOSDAB (which explicitly allows for other reasonable orderings). It is up for discussion currently, at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Disambiguation#feedback requested on NRHP dab pages, about whether geographic ordering should be added as an explicitly suggested option in MOSDAB. It is certainly not prohibited.

Also, the supporting bluelinks for two items that lack articles were stripped out. By MOSDAB guidelines, specifically MOS:DABRL, a supporting bluelink is needed. So, the phrase like "listed on the National Register of Historic Places in Connecticut. So those have to be restored.

I'll amend the article now to accept some of the other changes in the last edit, but to restore the order and the necessary supporting bluelinks. Please do discuss here. --doncram (talk) 22:40, 11 March 2010 (UTC)Reply
