Geocoordinates and Geocoordinates missing

[edit]

They are 

 |latitude = 38.89778
 |longitude = -77.022936

That being said, this infobox does not recognize them. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 19:10, 18 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Should it be: this infobox does not recognize them?--Doug Coldwell talk 21:22, 18 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
That what I meant. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 21:38, 18 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Ask the Help Desk and they can probably fix it. Tell them the coordinates are misssing.--Doug Coldwell talk 22:22, 18 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
 Done They are not in the infobox, but elsewhere. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 11:02, 19 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright contributor investigation and Good article reassessment

[edit]

This article is part of Wikipedia:Contributor copyright investigations/20210315 and the Good article (GA) drive to reassess and potentially delist over 200 GAs that might contain copyright and other problems. An AN discussion closed with consensus to delist this group of articles en masse, unless a reviewer opens an independent review and can vouch for/verify content of all sources. Please review Wikipedia:Good article reassessment/February 2023 for further information about the GA status of this article, the timeline and process for delisting, and suggestions for improvements. Questions or comments can be made at the project talk page. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 09:36, 9 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
