Tasks

Robust Maryland Economy and Development Pages

Robust economy sections pertaining to the State of Maryland's cities, towns and unincorporated areas. Many are lack luster or have none at all, a list of organizations would be a good start.

Articles to fix

If there is a Maryland-related article that already exists but you would like to see it cleaned up or expanded, add it below

• Darby Store - has not been updated in 10 years, planned move has happened
• John Lee Carroll - expand article
• Arthur Pue Gorman - expand article
• Josias Fendall – long article with zero references
• Frederick County Sheriff's Office
• Nancy K. Kopp - expand article
• Maddox, Maryland - expand article
• John Eager Howard – cleaned up, but still room for expansion
• Abingdon, Maryland- needs referencing, expansion of history section, and perhaps a few pictures
• Moses Rawlings - needs expansion and more sources
• Capitol College – reads as an historical timeline, not terribly encyclopedic. needs expansion, maybe some abridging.
• Seneca Quarry - could be expanded from the sources added, rewritten for clarity
• Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Bridge, Antietam Creek - seems to no longer exist; doesn't show up on satellite images at listed coordinates

I'm dubious that the coordinates in question were correct. Mangoe (talk) 19:38, 28 April 2014 (UTC)

According to http://bridgehunter.com/md/washington/long/, the bridge status is "Removed completely, piers visible on google & bing maps". Perhaps they were visible in prior map versions. —ADavidB 15:57, 29 April 2014 (UTC)

Ah, looking at topo maps shows the coordinates are close enough and that the bridge is not there anymore. Mangoe (talk) 16:31, 29 April 2014 (UTC)

• Marvin Mandel – Needs to be divided into smaller paragraphs
• William H. Cole IV – He resigned from the Baltimore City Council in August 2014 per http://williamhcole.wix.com/home but is still listed as the incumbent.

Fixed, though could be expanded. —ADavidB 21:34, 10 April 2016 (UTC)

Adopt an article

Similar to the Collaboration of the week, but on a smaller scale, you might want to "adopt" an article. This would involve doing the research, writing, and picture-taking (if possible) for either a non-existent article or a stub. Of course, everyone else can still edit an adopted article, and you can work on other things too, but the idea is to find a focus for a while, to try and build up the number of quality articles the Project has produced.

• J. Joseph Curran adopted by Marylandstater (talk) 16:20, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
• Mount Savage, Maryland adopted by WildwoseWildwose.
• Woodberry, Baltimore adopted by Marylandstater 14:48, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
