Help needed for infobox template with automatic category

I'm probably missing something obvious, but I was having trouble with updating infoboxes of individually listed contributing properties. For instance, the Delmarva Power & Light Building is an individually listed contributing property to the Downtown Wilmington Commercial Historic District so the DP&L article should be in Category:Individually listed contributing properties to historic districts on the National Register in Delaware.

But, when I update Template:Infobox NRHP with the historic district, the infobox automatically places the article in the less specific Category:Historic district contributing properties in Delaware. I then manually added the more specific category.

How do I get the article to only be in the more specific category? - RevelationDirect (talk) 18:46, 27 May 2024 (UTC)

I don't see a way to automatically place the article in a more specific category, but you can prevent the automatic placement in Category:Historic district contributing properties in STATE by adding a 'nocat=yes' parameter to the NRHP infobox template. You still have to manually add the more specific category, but at least that saves you from having to remove the other. DrOrinScrivello (talk) 13:42, 28 May 2024 (UTC)

Ideally the template would have a value in addition to "CP", like "IL", that would do this automatically. But this approach is easy enough to cut and paste.

Thank you! RevelationDirect (talk) 15:04, 28 May 2024 (UTC)

Looking closer, there is an nrhp_type "indcp" but it automatically places the article in the national Category:Individually listed contributing properties to historic districts on the National Register instead of the state one. So the same workaround is required. Adding this info to the Template talk:Infobox NRHP. - RevelationDirect (talk) 14:39, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

Help finding a Nomination Form

I just created the Coca-Cola Bottling Plant (Bogalusa, Louisiana) article (ID100003379) and I'd love to use the nomination form as a reference but I just can't seem find it online. Usually I search for the reference number on nps.gov, archives.gov, and louisiana.gov but I came up empty this time. I know some the older stuff just hasn't been digitized yet, but this one was listed in 2019!

Any idea where else I might look? - RevelationDirect (talk) 16:16, 24 November 2024 (UTC)

I've had good results emailing nr_reference@nps.gov when the nomination form isn't available online. In your email, include the name of the property, county, state, and NRHP reference number. If you get it that way, the style guide has instructions for formatting the ref to the offline version. Schazjmd (talk) 16:41, 24 November 2024 (UTC)

It's the linked document on this page. For Louisiana sites, you can search for the property in the state National Register Database. The states that post their forms online are usually more up-to-date than the NPS. TheCatalyst31 ^{Reaction•Creation} 03:44, 25 November 2024 (UTC)

Luther Palmer House / Pauchinganuc Farm

I can't find this NRHP property on Wikipedia. NRHP documents here. What am I missing? FloridaArmy (talk) 23:00, 7 December 2024 (UTC)

Good catch. It's definitely on the NRHP. The reference number is 08000498 and the address is 812 Pendleton Hill Road. Some photos of the house can be found here. You can update National Register of Historic Places listings in New London County, Connecticut with the information if you'd like. APK hi :-) (talk) 04:30, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

Greater Nassau County NY lists

Howdy, some rearranging has been done recently on different lists for Nassau County, NY. Two new sublists have been created: National Register of Historic Places listings in Long Beach, New York, and National Register of Historic Places listings in Glen Cove, New York. Can someone get these lists added into the Progress list, so the counts are back up to date? Thanks, 25or6to4 (talk) 16:18, 3 January 2025 (UTC)

Eaton Fire

Looks like many NRHP properties in Altadena, California were affected, damaged or destroyed. Among them are Christmas Tree Lane, Farnsworth Park, Woodbury-Story House, Andrew McNally House, Scripps Hall (California), Zane Grey Estate. There may be more. Is there someone who can verify the status of these and other properties Einbierbitte (talk) 16:13, 11 January 2025 (UTC)

Aside from what's made the news about them, I suspect it will be a while before any editors can verify what's still standing on the ground, as all of Altadena is still under evacuation orders. (That and the situation there is bad enough that historic buildings are very far down on the list of priorities, but I suppose that goes without saying.) The news has covered some of those sites, though; I know the McNally House and Farnsworth Park were destroyed, and Christmas Tree Lane suffered damage.

Villa Carlotta, Case Study House 20, and Christmas Tree Lane survived [1] [2] [3]. Keyes Bungalow, Valentine Cottage B, Woodbury-Story, and Pacific Electric Substation 8 are the remaining unknowns. Teemu08 (talk) 20:35, 15 January 2025 (UTC)

Update: Woodbury-Story House survived with only minor damage. Pacific Electric Railway Company Substation No. 8 is marked as destroyed, although I think that this is an error since it sure seems to be still standing [4] [5]. Other two still not surveyed. Teemu08 (talk) 18:02, 16 January 2025 (UTC)

Indiana Landmarks photographs from Indiana Memory

The latest round of DPLA uploads over at Commons has included a significant batch of images of landmarks from Indiana Memory - my search indicates something like 6,000. I've created a category to house them over on Commons, which I'm currently populating. At first blush this looks like something that might be useful to members of this project, if anyone would like to begin the Herculean task of sorting through the material. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 09:04, 19 January 2025 (UTC)

Uploading multiple images to HR listings

In the past I have been able to simultaneously upload multiple images to HR listings.

When I recently tried to upload multiple images to the Star Cash Grocery Store and Residence listing in the National Register of Historic Places listings in Douglas County, Kansas it only allowed me to upload a single photo and it didn't copy over the title of the photo.

I did not finish the upload because I did not want to end up adding the rest of the photos manually or one by one.

Can anyone tell me whether something has changed? What do I need to do to again be able to upload multiple photos to one listing?

Thanks for any help you can provide. SharonPapierdreams (talk) 02:54, 19 January 2025 (UTC)

@SharonPapierdreams: Are you running into the issue over on Commons? Looks like there's a snafu with multiple-image uploads over there right now. I've been running into it with several Flickr uploads; not sure if it's affecting personal image uploads as well. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 09:07, 19 January 2025 (UTC)

When I uploaded them in the past, the photographs would end up in Commons.

I am just trying to upload photographs to National Register of Historic Places listings.

If you look at my contributions you can see what I've done and what I'm trying to do.

Thank you very much for your help. SharonPapierdreams (talk) 12:57, 19 January 2025 (UTC)

St. Mark's Parish Church

Hello -

St. Mark's Parish Church is currently an article that mainly focuses on the historic / religious elements of this building. However, the building has been a music club since the 1990s. There is not a huge amount of noteworthy content to add so I am not sure it makes sense to create a separate article. What I was considering was adding a new redirect article as The Church (Denver nightclub) or similar, then redirect to this page. Can anyone advise if this would be inappropriate or if there is a better way of handling this?

Thanks in advance. Pdubs.94 (talk) 17:40, 28 March 2025 (UTC)

The article is about the building, so it makes sense to me to include the current usage as a part of the history of the building in the article (or as a separate section if there is enough material). You could then add a new redirect (The Church (Denver nightclub) or whatever) or retitle the article and redirect from St. Mark's Parish Church to The Church (Denver nightclub). I've seen multiple articles of repurposed buildings go both ways, with either the historic name or the current name as the primary article name, depending on what people commonly call it. Andrew Jameson (talk) 18:46, 28 March 2025 (UTC)

I agree with the above. I think a good example is The National (theater), which was initially notable as a historic building (National Theater) but has been in business long enough as a performance venue (The National) that that is now its common name, and the page was recently moved to reflect that. It uses the NRHP infobox nested inside a venue infobox, and while the article could probably be filled out with more info on the current iteration, it shows how an article about a situation like yours can work. DrOrinScrivello (talk) 19:17, 28 March 2025 (UTC)

thank you! the example is very helpful, perfect guidance on this exact scenario. Pdubs.94 (talk) 19:38, 28 March 2025 (UTC)
