Trivia needs clarification

[edit]

I've removed one of the trivia facts that really can't be fixed grammatically until I figure out what it's trying to say. The wording:

  • The site where Family Dollar Store stands, used to be where the Reynolds Building was located, has since burned down.

The Family Dollar store "stands" (present tense), so it's still there? Yet it "used to be where" the Reynolds Building "was"? So both are gone? And then something "has since burned down". What burned down? Since when? Anybody know? --AnnaFrance (talk) 01:37, 2 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

My guess is that the Reynolds building burned down and now the Family Dollar stands there. Dincher (talk) 01:52, 2 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, that would be my guess too. Now if we could just make that sound more exciting. :) --AnnaFrance (talk) 23:21, 2 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
How about... The building that is currently Family Dollar is locate on the same parcel that formerly was home to the Reynolds building which was destroyed in a raging inferno! =) Dincher (talk) 01:10, 3 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Much better. :) But only if we include a picture from some major pyrotechnic movie. By then I think we would have broken just about all of the major encyclopedia rules. Which reminds me, I believe lists within normal articles are not encouraged, and I know Wikipedia doesn't care for trivia sections. Sooner or later this Historical trivia section is going to have to be removed and the material worked into a general History section. So I'll just leave this last item off for now. It's recorded here if anyone wants to work with it in the future. --AnnaFrance (talk) 15:59, 3 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Location

[edit]

Kittanning is not located in Rayburn Township. Kittanning is a borough that is a seperate entity from a township. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.60.152.174 (talk) 02:14, 30 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for pointing this out. It has been fixed. Dincher (talk) 02:23, 30 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
