Categorization

Hi! Welcome to Wikipedia. I want to let you know that I removed the William Van Duzer Lawrence category link from Bronxville, New York. There is no category for Lawrence, and it's very unlikely that one would be justifiable. See WP:Categorization to learn more about categories at Wikipedia. --Orlady (talk) 02:22, 19 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for your reply. Now I see what you were trying to do.
Your goal could be accomplished either by (1) creating a "History" section in the Bronxville article, adding information about Lawrence's role in the history of the community (with a link to his article) or (2) creating a "See also" section in the Bronxville article and linking to William Van Duzer Lawrence under that heading. Choice 2 is easier, but choice 1 is preferred -- also, you could incorporate some of the trivia now accumulated in the "Historical anecdotes" section. Look at Grand Forks, North Dakota and Youngstown, Ohio for examples of featured articles about moderate-sized cities -- I think they illustrate good approaches to organizing the content. --Orlady (talk) 21:29, 19 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
