About the "Property Tax Bill Search" source, can the search terms to use be included in the reference, perhaps in a parenthetical hint? E.g. say the parcel number or the search phrase that will yield info on this property, for users not familiar with the system? doncram (talk) 20:14, 28 September 2009 (UTC) P.S. Searching on address="3 Wimbledon Drive East" does not work, by the way. doncram (talk) 20:25, 28 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Check the "search by address" and enter "3 Wimbledon." Altairisfartalk 23:02, 28 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, i see that works. The system lists the property at "3 Wimbledon Dr", and a search on exactly that also works, while searches on "3 Wimbledon Dr." and "3 Wimbledon Drive" do not. Also see that a "sales history" tab provides other information that u used in the article. This is all pretty minor, but I'll try to give an appropriate hint in the reference. If you want to revise or drop this addition to the footnote, please feel free. I was just a tad frustrated, as I was wanting to check that this source did not in fact provide the architectural details given in the article, which you had announced at the NRHP wikiproject. I like the pic and the short article! doncram (talk) 23:17, 28 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry I couldn't dedicate more time to it yesterday, it was my b'day and I was running around like a madman getting ready for a party. I agree with your points and the changes look good to me. Thanks! Altairisfartalk 13:37, 29 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
