Untitled

The article mentions Massiac in Auvergne. But there are also two Massacs in France, one in Languedoc and the other in Charentes-Maritime. Should this article mention them? Quartier Latin1968 20:19, 26 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Name

I am thinking this page needs to be moved to Fort Massac State Park, rather than just Fort Massac.--Kranar drogin 04:40, 6 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'd support that, as long as the content of the article is expanded to reflect that. Right now, all all the text is describing the fort and its history. The fact that is it a state park is basically an after thought in the current text. There needs to be more information about the park as a whole. VerruckteDan 14:33, 6 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

ERRORS

Underneath the map of IL on the right hand side it states: "location of Argyle Lake State Park". Shouldn't this read "Fort Massac State Park".

In the same dialog box "Area" states the following: "1,450 acres (587 ha)"

The park is in fact 1,450 acres. Here is a link to Google Maps showing the size of Fort Massac State Park: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=fort+massac+state+park,+62960&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=36.999937,56.513672&ie=UTF8&hq=Fort+Massac+State+Park&hnear=Fort+Massac+State+Park,+Metropolis,+IL+62960&ll=37.139793,-88.673744&spn=0.0728,0.110378&z=13 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Roket5645 (talk • contribs) 04:46, 12 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
