old vs. new

[edit]

I have revised the article to try to remove recentism bias. The article should be about the "Wyoming State Penitentiary", including in historic facilities. It did not spring into existence in 1980. However, it is not clear to me what is the relationship of the current complex to the 1901 complex. Are they entirely separate, geographically, or is it one continuous area? This needs to be clarified. And discussion of the move/transfer between them. --Doncram (talk) 18:39, 24 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

City limits

[edit]

Many times prisons are in unincorporated areas outside of corporate limits of cities, but this place is within the Rawlins city limit. https://www2.census.gov/geo/maps/DC2020/DC20BLK/st56_wy/place/p5663900_rawlins/DC20BLK_P5663900.pdf (I don't think it's necessary to cite this map) WhisperToMe (talk) 18:38, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
